what is the reasoning behind museum shops being a sub-forum under tbt marketplace and not museum???
 
Probably to keep the museum a gallery and to keep the marketplace a place to shop.
I dunno I'm just guessing ;A;
 
Justin explained the reasoning behind the decision in our latest Bell Tree Direct:

The Museum board is one of our longest standing boards throughout TBT’s history, and has always been a great place to share creations with the community. Whether that’s a piece of art, a signature, a story, or something else entirely. Over the past few years however, the board has transformed into more of a marketplace than a showcase.

We think it's great that there’s a large buying and selling art community on TBT, but it’s taken over the rest of the board. If you go in there to post a recent creation of yours, your thread may easily become drowned out by the endless shop threads.

This is why we are now splitting the marketplace side of the board into it’s own sub-board inside of TBT Marketplace. The Museum will return back to its original roots, as a place to post your galleries and creations, while all trading-related threads will belong in the new TBT Marketplace sub-board.

See the Bell Tree Direct - 06.20.2015 thread for more information regarding what belongs in each board along with our other updates. :)
