[PrincessBuffy16]

I finished with some writing, I will send it to you till the deadline.

 

[Frketson]

Alrighty, i've got some free time this weekend so i'll do some ads or something and pm them to you.

Quick question though, where are all the other talented artists?!

 

[Emzzie]

I'll get working on an article! 😀

I'm thinking an "All I want for Christmas is Rupert Giles" theme for it!

 

[Revolver]

I'd love to be a writer. I think I could come up with a funny article or twelve for you. I direct you to this thread: I think something's up with this Buffy person.... - Buffy-Boards for proof of my journalistic integrity.

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Yes, welcome onboard!

 

[Tammarie]

Oooh. Could I do some editing?
I would've loved to do graphic designs but my laptops dead, and this computer doesn't have photoshop🙁

 

[spikeluvr185]

This sounds awesome!!! Count me it! :smile:

I could edit the articles to check for mistakes.

I'm a pretty good writer, but I stink at coming up with good ideas. So as long as someone could at least give me advice on where to go with an article, I can do it.

I could also read the entire magazine before published if you wanted me to.

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Here are ideas for you writers:

A general new section. I'd like to have it divided into Joss-projects/life and Whedonstars-projects/lives.

A funny Christmas-gift list.(I've finished writing a New Year's resolution list, but I want something silly for Christmas too.

Reviews for books, shows, episodes, etc etc. It doesn't matter if several of you wants to review the same recent episodes, since I'm fine with, let's say, three reviews for Belonging, but otherwise I'd like to make sure two people don't review the same comic, so contact me before you get started on a review.

Diary-entry from a character.

Made up silly interviews with Whedonstars or characters. Maybe a crazy fan.

Interviews with cool fans(maybe with a collector or fanfic writer?)

A short fic, maybe a few drabbles. Poetry, Christmas gifts rhymes, you name it.

To make it easier to do the layout, I have two alternatives for article writers:
1) Leave the layout to me. I'll put the article on a page on photoshoop. For the articles, the ideal would be if they filled up entire pages. I think that about 3800 letters/space/signs per page will do(I will mainly use trebuchet size 14). But I could always throw in a ad or artwork to fill up pages if necassary. And sometimes it will look better if I use a different and bigger font.
2) The writers designs his/her own page, using whatever font/images he/she pleases.

Btw, we will have a fanart section, so in case anyone want to contribute, PM me or post here.

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Calling all editors;

I have a short Bangel piece that needs editing. PM PrincessBuffy16 in case you're interested in looking it over.

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Anyone who feels up for writing (and maybe doing the layout) a BB ad? I was thinking about making a page advertising this board, but since I'm kinda new, I thought someone else might be able to sum up the features and wonders better than me.

You could send suggestions to lines to use in the advert or write it competelyon your own and doing the layouts (nothing fancy is needed, maybe just a few pics of the forums layout and a few lines describing the forum).

Anyone up for it?

 

[Skytteflickan88]

Not to bump, but the deadlines are closing in.

 

[ILLYRIAN]

Do you have permission from all of the copyright holders ?

 

[Joan the Vampire Slayer]

Alright, sorry, I'm been super-busy with school.

I'll PM PrincessBuffy and look over her Bangel piece and PM it to you.

And, I can't be of much help with the BB layout as I can't do graphics, but perhaps we could come up with a cool tagline for the boards for the advert.

I really like the last version. I'll probably use that one.
