User articles

Post by hallsofvallhalla »

Lots of things going on for the website today :)

Anyways I want to start building this up as a resource site like I originally planned. I am going to add in user submitted articles. There will be several categories you can submit articles to.

Tutorials
Graphics
off topic
information
news

ect...

Once you submit it it goes into a queue to be approved by a editor. Once approved it is added to the website. Much like a wiki but better.

Suggestions welcome. Will also be looking for some members to be editors.

Great work, keep up the deving.

Amazing what you can do in a day of coding.

Remember to post submission guidelines and article examples when you get to it. It really helps with the amount of submissions. (That is without them, people are often afraid they will get rejected)

And with current forum posts which are articles in disguise. (eg. Cayle's recruiting guide) will they be converted into articles? You might also want to add a comments section under the articles or you might need an articles discussion section in the forums.
