Not sure how many people would be interested, but I enjoy cooking as a hobby, and I am sure others do as well. Any chance we can get a Sub-Section inside the hobbies section for Cooking/Recipes

That would be a nice idea. As it is, I go to the Food Network dot com for my recipes.

Perhaps, if there was something in particular we were looking for, we could ask fellow orgers for their favorite, and try it. Something along that line?

Can I use the same comments against this idea as were used against my Photography forum idea?

Just kidding! I am the primary cook in my house and I am always looking for more ideas of what to cook the wife for dinner.

I'd say let's do it. Perhaps a "Org's Favorite Recipes" book?

Perhaps a NewBeetle.org Cookbook.

It'd be really cool.

Heh seems there is good response to the cooking section

As for the spell checker, if you look in the upper right hand corner of the reply to screen, you'll see an ABC and a check mark. Click that, download this program, and wah la...Spell checker

Hrmm...

I must be on crack, you got an image of what said ABC looks like? What Browser you running? I am under the impression that VBulletin does not have a built in spell checker.

Is it possible a firefox extension you are runnning?

on the old forum... way back when. Part of the reason I made sure it was included in this new release was those arguments FOR the photography forum... on the old forum... way back when.

Default Two things...

1. It seems like enough people want the cooking forum to go forward with it. Ron or James, if you have time, go ahead and set it up. If not, I'll get to it eventually.

2. Maybe the vB people were smart enough to know that those of us with GOOD browsers already have spell checking on ALL forms (Safari, which I use, has it built-in, and there's a Firefox extension for it).
