House Rules For Contributors
(Subject to development as problems appear)
General:
-Please be self-editing so the editors don't have to trawl through your shit. Endless links, pictures and videos not appreciated.
-Editors reserve the right to edit basically whatever they want and remove posts. Don't be offended.
Writing Styles:
-Proper title writing please: Although the main titles appear in upper case anyway, the sidebar titles don't so crap capitalisation (crapitalisation) will show up there
-One blank line between paragraphs, no indentation
-Use of quote marks only where absolutely necessary
-No experimental typography, changing type sizes, colours etc.
Pictures accompanying writing:
-Always left aligned, sized medium when uploading pictures to accompany writing
-Please make sure that your text doesn't run down the side of images, if it does go back and edit your post, adding a few blank lines between the image code and your text until it appears a line or so underneath the picture on the blog. This sometimes takes a couple of tries to get right
-We all know there's lots of funny pictures on the internet, but please limit pictures to vaguely relevant stuff otherwise the blog turns to shit
-One image per post maximum if it isn't the focus of the post
Art contributors
-Pencil/pen drawings welcome but must be suitable for viewing at blog size/resolution. The art editor says no to loads of hideous colour or anything that's too busy to look okay on screen
-Upload all images left aligned, large size if there is no accompanying text
-One image per post, make it good
Video contributions
-Youtube links welcome, but keep them to a decent standard
New Contributors
-Please feel free to suggest new contributors, or get in touch if you're reading this and would like to contribute.
