News Papers

A private area in the Groups section to put it together?

Do we need a private area?

Yes, people are being very nosy!

Really? Never noticed...

Also. The Weekly Magic?

The Weekly Courant - Simple to remember and without elements of Azeroth to keep it neutral.

NECRO-BUMP

Made a sample layout. Any thoughts? Black and white adverts are place-holders for player/guild adverts, all text/screenshots are also just placeholders. Scaled down somewhat as it's jsut for a general preview.

Also, it's shown as spreads here, but can easily be split to single-pages-only.

Spoiler:

Err dont read latin....

(But love it )

EDUCATE THINESELF

We dont really need to do it weekly or anything, perhaps just cover a main story and stuff and add some other bits as it happens.

Im not clicking your links, last time I got some "growth tablets" and some "vaccum equipment" through the post.

It's a load of work to fill so many pages. I'd go with two/three, to prevent tl;dr.

This is the perfect place for more Djego filled adds.

1 page would already suffice tbh. One with little crap and actual happenings/events of the server. All in all...amazing work Kit...

"Over to the Overlord for the Weather report, What is the weather like today!"

"Displeasing"

I'm still up for running the gossip shit... People send in their mail, Morinth 'relays' it to the world. Being neutral and all.

I would love to see a newspaper up and operating again. I thought of doing one myself but I have no layout skills So ace, Kitt. I'd really love to write columns now and then once again, and could help in any text-related way xD

Jarric would be up for an interview!

Having too many pages isn't really a problem, it's indesign, so pages can be removed or dropped out easily enough to fit to content.

To get the ball rolling, if anyone wants an 'advert' put in, send me any screenshots/text you want, and a basic description of the look you want and I'll knock something together.

Also, it'd be fab if someone would be willing to act as 'editor'; that is, collect together articles and give a brief proof-read of submissions.

General guidelines;

articles about 200-500 words at the most. That's between two to six fair-sized paragraphs. Short articles such as announcements (see the side bars on the 'front page') should knock in at about 70 words. These are just general guidelines.
If possible include one or two screenshots relating to the article.

Can people intending to write regular columns please say what they'd like to cover; so far just got Morinth for gossip

Ooh. I'd be happy to (unless of course anyone else is dying to).

I don't see Ironforge on that list, there must have been a typo error.

The Tunnels of Ironforge.


You happy, bro?

I would like to write articles on an irregular basis, should this be possible.
