For the sake of organization we have developed a cut-off for article submissions for the magazine. Crews must submit all articles by the 18th of each month. (This month (june 2009) is an exception to this rule, as it is quite late notice.) Your crew may write about pretty much any topic it chooses. Within certain limits. (Any kind of topic you find on the board that is NOT in the off-topic section is pretty much acceptable.) We will be devoting a section to your crew, which means you will be able to design a title page, and in later editions, the pages themselves. We expect 2+ articles. The more you give is the better of course. That way, when you're having an inspirationless month, we can use some articles that you guys wrote earlier on, which we then have up our sleeves. All articles may be PM'd to Gr magazine account in word/wordpad format. This will change in the later months, once we get everything more organized, and you understand what we are trying to accomplish with the magazine. You will also be given more free reign over what your section looks like. By the 4th of each month (two weeks before your due dates) we would appreciate a listing of what you plan to do. So as to coordinate articles with ourselves, other crews, and you and so we get no overlaps. This would include listing the person you plan to interview, articles you plan to write, tutorials or resources you plan to release (or the subject they are on). (This month you will be given until the 25th to hand in articles.) We would also appreciate if all members could participate. Obviously due to school and work and emergencies people will not be able to get an article out every month, but since you have so many members it should not be a problem to switch up and such. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to PM GRMAG, EE or myself. So to sum things up: 4th of each month - what you plan on doing 18th of each month - submit all articles to Gr magazine account
i'm kinda confused, what are we writing about? well no, what is the purpose of writing a piece for the magazine.
It's a way to promote the teams a bit and just to get your name out really. Everyone will read the magazine and probably the articles you write. And something to pull the hairs out? The resource rota ain't going that swell might I remind everyone but we've chosen not to enforce anything there (yet). But all the teamleaders gave their go for this project, which means it will be pulled through and I insist it is done correctly. We don't want to make an as out of ourselves here.
E's and P's? And you guys talk everything over with the crewleader(s) (asar and merde) and then they talk things over with us editors. So you decide as a team first on what to write about and stuff.
Sorry for my ignorance Yes, something like that would work perfectly. Asar has been informed through msn and all, so he can help you out with it as well.
hehe, so long as you didn't post "whats are elements and principles" its all cool. um how about we all write on one element or principle each?? that way it could be a really detailed explanation of each. i dunno. we shall wait for asar.
the design currently isn't an issue yet. For this first one we're doing things ourselves and you guys just need to write the text. You can do a sort of front page for your part though, that you can design that (specs about size will follow later) But for the next magazines, I'll give you guys more freedom, as then you will have an example of how we'd like things to be, if you catch my drift
Nope, but feel free to make a topic here, where you guys can ponder about it and get each other's feedback. If you want our feedback, you can pm your questions to the acount 'Gr Magazine'
