Elektron Musical Instruments

There is a suneshea virus forum that is quite successful.  I'm not
sure if the yahoo group came first or not, but the yahoo group does
not have much traffic.  It would be nice to post photos in threads and
things.  It would be alot better using those grouped forum things. 
This yahoo does work well as it is.  

I would also like to add that other's have tried to make another forum
and they ALL failed.  The key would be to get people to actually use
the forum.  

I haven't checked the forum for it but does it allow for storage?
