    All who are willing to lend a hand I expect to see in IRC tomorrow, around 8 p.m. servertime. There are many tasks which have to be performed, I'm sure there's a task which suits every single one of you just fine. Also we'll do some brainwaving with regards to the contents of the magazine.

    I hope to see you there, otherwise, send me a pm with your idea/suggestion or whatever you want to do for the Zine. Everyone has a talent, and it sure will come in handy. ;) (Spamming is not an talent, I'm sorry )

    It'll be a fun chat, and I'm looking forward to all the creative ideas.
    Fun is fun and done is done. Untill we meet again..

    Just one quick suggestion from me, if it has not been discussed before, if yes, I'm sorry

    I think one good idea concerning the media of choice could be a CMS system for that magazine, the reasons would be:

    - its webbased, and so easily accessable for everyone
    - writers don't need webdesign / coding skills to create articles
    - it is (relatively) easy to set up a page and translate content quickly
    - its perfect for making pages with lots of content (articles, news, blogs etc.)
    - Crogge could post a link to the official CroggesServer Magazine on the mainpage, or maybe even integrate it (if he agrees, ofc)
    - some CMS systems support printing out the page as PDF files =D

    I think your future team has at least some people who at least heard of CMS systems and are maybe even familiar with it.

    Just a quick suggestion

    I'm only familiar with Adobe stuff, which contains InDesign. I'll take a look at it and take it in moderation. Thank you for the tip, I appreciate it. It sure sounds promising.

    Oh yes i am verry familiar with CMS systems (Mambo, Joomla, Phpnuke, Sharepoint etc.).
    It could be nice.
    But we would need a CMS for making magazines, don't know if there is such one (would have to look it up).
    Otherwise we could use Joomla and publish within a protected area.
    That way we are able to write articles and have them in one handy place with a WYSIWYG editor.

    However, as a magazine, i would nog exspect some kind of "Interactive" Magazine.
    But a static one in PDF.
    Ppl will be able to read it, print it, share it.
    download it on their Mobile phone (maybe special edition?) notebook or even a E-Book and read it anywere without having a i-net connection.
    Sure, in a cms you can download particular articles, but in that way the idea behind a Magazine would disappear...

    Btw, I just had a look @ Adobe indesign... and i never heard of it.
    I am going to check it out after work.
    It looks like the package we need.

    The mainpage and all the other serverrelated stuff is up to Crogge. Me as a moderator, who can't do anything more than spam and merge or delete posts and threads, wanted to make this magazine happen. I can't give you anything more than this magazine. Try to live with it, untill everything is fixed.

    @ Cruelty, can you dw it somewhere fast, or must I send it to you? That software is especially made to make newspapers etc. It's ok, I get the hang of it. =P

    ...
    its just speechless! the server is going down like a Kirov on fire and still ur having these ideas? im sorry but this is useless and wat we need know is IDEAS that can keep this server living. The server is all messed up, no one will come to see magazines or nothing if we dont do something USEFULL.NO working server no people...no people no use in having Magazines.So do something usefull like testing out the serv one more time or...report to GM's about the crashes, lags and bugs.Dont waste ur time doing something that wont contribute to the server's comunity

    As I said before, that's Crogge's work. I cannot add anything myself to improve the server at all. All I can do is to come up with something different in these dark periods of the server, to keep the community living.
    The server is not in her best conditions, but you shouldn't waste time by complaining and flaming about it. Now that's useless.

    I use my time for something nice, untill the server is as good as it was before. Think about it.

    P.S. I've missed you, mate. Come on irc, for goodness sake!
