I think that with the multitude of Particles that are now available with the Gantry 5 themes, it would be a good idea to have a Particles forum area where questions related to a specific particle can be posted.
As Particles are somewhat like Joomla extensions and Wordpress widgets, and as the particles from one theme can be easily used in another theme, it seems logical to be able to discuss specific particles without referencing a specific theme.
For example, the "FlippingContent" Particle from the Isotope theme can easily be used in any other theme. Same goes for the new "Video" particle from the Citadel theme. These are two examples, but this applies to all particles. -

I'll mention it to the guys but I have to say that not all particles are as easy to move between templates. Also, just because a particle is called the same thing it doesn't mean it has the same functionality in each template (there are differences). So, personally I think it's better to ask "core" Gantry 5 particle question in the Gantry 5 forum and template specific particle questions in the appropriate template forum.
