Can I vote for sticky?

I've already spoken to Digisoap about getting this thread and my Tutorials thread stickied. He doesn't seem too keen on the idea, but said he would discuss it with the other moderators. (there's already sticky threads in the Game Design forum).

We'll see. Thanks for the support though.
