As many of you likely know, the changes made to this site by iVillage have caused many people to stop participating here. There are a few gardening fora to which folks are turning, one of which is The Garden Forums at www.thegardenforums.org, where pop up adds are non-existant, and where your posts and photographs remain your own. Already more than 80 former GW forum participants have gathered here, and I am hoping many of you will join us as well.

This has become my favorite of the gallery sites on GW, and I will genuinely miss everyone's talent for both garden design and photography. I hope you will consider showing your stuff on some of the alternative fora!

Be well!
