Creative Cafe is a site I have been developing which is for everything creative members can do. There is also a linked salesrooms site for people to buy and sell their creations. We are not opening until November but I am inviting some people early so we can iron out any hiccups and make the place lively. I hope you will feel like joining us and here is the link:
