Some stickies that have outlived their usefulness
I like to see old stickies get cleaned up because they steal screen real-estate from new threads. So, in that vein, these look like they've outlived their usefulness and no longer need to be sticky either because the issue they are about is now far in the past or because there just hasn't been any relevant activity in a long time.
The ones in the other forums will have to be looked at by the respective mods, but the ones in the customization and support forums will stay stickied for now. The fact that there may not have been any recent replies, doesn't mean it's not useful, or not being looked at/used

Are you still actually trying to hire a CSS Zen Master? That was posted in April.
OK, it's probably worth a new post in the thread saying that a position is still open then. I assumed that the post was just out-of-date since there was no activity from Smugmug for 6 months. Prospective candidates could easily assume the same.
Hi, just wanted to know if it would be OK for me to put a link to Photobox in my dgrin signature www.photobox.co.uk don't want to offend SmugMug, I've already done it as you can see but will delete if you wish. Didn't know who to ask :-)
Have you ever considered a separate forum just for all these stickies? Just call it Stickies. If needed, preface the post name with something apropos so we know where is applies.
Maybe this would work, maybe it wouldn't, but I'll throw the idea out there for your discussion or flames.
Just a thought...
Cheers,
Barry

Hi Caroline,
While we have no specific rules about ads in signatures, the general rule of thumb is that we are 100% and completely ad-free. We do come down hard on people who advertise on Dgrin, and it would be best to not include it. Personally (and also as a member and employee of Smug) I don't have any specific issue of it being a non-SM site, but I think that we would all like to see signatures be a place for personal information.

Stuck threads are generally relevant only to the forum they are found in. If I moved the "collected journeys" sticky to another forum, would you find it? Would you look for it?
On the other hand, announcements are relevant to all and can be found above forum specific stuff.

Hi Schmoo, have pm'd you but here for the record is my reply also :-
Thats fine by me, thanks for the clarification. I know that I have seen similar things in peoples signatures but wasn't sure about the principle, hence my question. I'll remove it now.

If you see threads or posts that should or could be moved, or could be consolidated within another post to better organize, and server our forum, place them here in this thread by responding to this post.
Don't forget to include full linkys!
Andy, I just submitted my first photo to a Dgrin Challenge. I followed the instructions at http://dgrin.smugmug.com/gallery/1083138 about how to post a photo and exif data for a challenge. The photo seemed to work fine, but when I followed the instructions to obtain the link to the exif data, I did not get the option to copy the link. I just got a "send the link" option. I looked at the link address and came up with http://fotoeffects.smugmug.com/gallery/6785483_tG88U#433551747_WdkpY, but the info that came up with that did not seem to have all the exif camera info. I don't want to be disqualified. Can you help me?
Also, are you limited to a single entry per challenge or can you enter more than one image for the same challenge?
Thanks so much in advance for any help you can provide on this! I really appreciate it.

Although I'm sure the moderator of the forums would have caught this quickly, thought a link couldn't hurt!

Both of user "t001"s posts are spam, and I'm sure the future won't hold any truly brilliant posts.
Thanks!

Please have a look at the rules in the Challenge threads.
For help with posting EXIF info, see this.
This is in SmugMug Support, maybe belongs in Cameras?
