hi can put a forum within a forum that is called Egyptian world ... bone a forum where they speak out of Egypt, from cities around the world discussed by Egyptian

I'm not sure what you meant there, write it in your native language either Spanish or Protugues so we can understand. Also your remarks and suggestions should be made over in this thread,

Thanks for come over anyways ;P

Edit: I think you mean like around the world section. But yea I'm not sure about this.

bueno quize decir en mi anterior comentario que si podian crea un foro de resto del mundo dentro del foro egipcio..todos las fotografias de diferentes partes del mundo comentada por egipcios o hechos por ustedes mismos...se puede eso

Bueno idea :)
