Hi Diane,
I'm a member of two scrapbook boards that are very chatty - lots of ideas shared and lots of layout shared.
Scraplovers is a great place - they have a decent store, but I love their message board the best. The gallery there is a great one. Here is the link....

If you want a more intimate setting, I'm a moderator of a yahoo group. It's a very chatty group. Here's the URL...

There's also a store and a message board at Rocky Mountain Hobbies. I love their store, but have never been on their message board.
