I was wondering if there is a place where I could post photos of my sewing projects and have everyone give me their 2 cents. I don’t have a sewing buddy and face it, reading will get you only so far. Sometimes I just cannot describe what I am seeing or feeling while wearing something I have made but maybe someone with more experience will see something I can’t. Of course then I would need to find a way to take the photos but that’s another subject. Would this be a helpful idea?

you are welcome to post right here. other people have done it. i wish i could remember the thread names, but i can't. perhaps someone can help, if you'd like to see samples of how it's gone for other folks.
write a full description of what your goals and problems aer so we can give the info you need.
Join in the September Challenge post. You will have some real experts there or start a new post with a more specific title such as " Neckline tilts forward, help!" or "Never did a zipper, Help!"
Either way, you will get great help, I am sure.

Posters do this all the time, either in the Photo Gallery thread or in the Fitting thread with a heading of "Need help" or "What's wrong" and attached photos. Several threads (search the archives) explain how to post photos. It's fairly simple if you have a way to get a photo onto a computer (either from a digital camera or from scanning a print photo).
Make sure you have good lighting on the garment so that readers can see the problem/issue area, and I'm sure lots of people will chime in with responses!
