I think the problem is that people don't feel good enough about their tutorials and/or ties.
By only a few people seeing it on the BB they are confident enough to post it....BUT when that gets to all the people who see the FOTW they get self-conscious.

A very good Point , I had not thought of that. You put them in fly of the week , they stay onsite forever and you can find them in search. Plus the admin can make sure they aren't already in fly of the week thus eliminating duplication.
and Yet another very good point I hadn't thought of from ducksterman.
"I wonder if all the folks know that these threads/strings are eventually deleted....not to mention that if you clean out photobucket or whatever web host you use the picture is no longer in the thread/string."
I was wondering why tutorials were banned and these are two very good reasons.
Also, I have never actually seen anything saying that tutorials were banned unless it is in the thingy you agree to at the time of registering. I have tried and cannot find that information anywhere on faol. If someone knows where it is please point me to it.
Ps. DDRRedneck500 if you can beg borrow or steal a copy of the premier edition of Hatches Magazine there are some awesome articles on Atlantics in it.
Re: how do you tie those darn things?
the reason tutorials got banned was because about a month ago someone( not mentioning any names on here) posted a tutorial and it ended up carying on an argument from a different website and turned into an online brawl. alot of people got angry about it, so Denny got arid of the WHOLE problem and banned tutorials on the BB so that that kind of thing wouldnt happen again.
so thats that story in a nutshell
on a different note, thanks for all the help about the salmon flies
