I haven't had a chance to get on here for a while and come back to find a new name. When did the name change and why?

This should answer your question. TexasPhotoForum.com is transitioning to Pixtus.com

When I tried to go to the site it kept going to this one, I couldn't figure out why TPF wouldn't pull up. You've explained all of it. A name is just a name to me. As long as the site remains the great site it always was it will remain the best photo site on the web. Guess I've been away longer than i thought!
Thanks for posting the link.

It's no where near as good as it used to be.

It used to go by the name Texas Photo Forum and had lively discussions and lots of great people who helped. Many have seemed to not have an interest in the "new" concept. It seems to be more of a "tell me how much you like my pretty picture" kind of forum now.

I thought it was just me that thought things were a little slow
--maybe we need to invite a certain captain back to liven things up.

I honestly haven't noticed any changes.
If anything, it's brought in some great photographers from the left coast, Florida and elsewhere.
Yes, Captain Tom is missed. Sure wish he hadn't crossed the line, just maybe skirted it!

hmm... how do we seem to be that kind of forum now? because we've added a set of critique guidelines?
