I think Madzia is in the right direction. If I wanted to post in my sketchbook, post a finished work, get a crit or sell something, I have to go to 4 different sections. You could do all of those things in one thread and it would be more of a direct hub of a persons stuff.
Maybe this would be a good way to direct the flow of traffic into sketchbooks.
How about a Personal Artwork section and a Artist's Portfolio section right where the "Introductions" sub forum is? An introduction in your "Sketchbook" or whatever would be sufficient I think. (Plus having this right at the top would be like saying, "hey this is who we are and this what we do" that's introduction enough.)
And an Artist's Portfolio section would be a great way of displaying your finished art work as well as getting a more effective overall critique (individual crit can be left in the "sketchbook" thread). Anyone who wants to do this stuff for a living needs a portfolio right? I think having a section where you can "groom" your portfolio in particular would push a lot of people more in the right direction. This would also maybe push people to churn out more thought out finished work to post there.
Just another thought.
