I am sure we will Suka. :lol:

Anyways, Wolfux has asked me to announce...

That he is having connection issues with his web browser, so the next issue might be heavily delayed. Thanks.

Thanks for informing them, Maya ^^

A small update here; the next issue might be slightly delayed, since this is the first opportunity that I could get on in days, but I'm working on it (actually so hard I'm sweating).

I like that "Donotwantcat", he/she's soo like me in the "donotwant" part :lol: , good articles so far, perhaps a bit more decorations will make the newsletter looks even better? Just my opinion :)

Let me assure you that we're woking on some background images, but good artwork is hard to find ;)

I would suggest a better more artistic or at least organized format. Its kind of all over the place and a bit hard to read, you should all get a template together that neatly places the icons to the side and pictures in a firm place. But nice work for the first issue.

Indeed. That is what I hope is corrected in the next issue tomorrow ;) I can tell you all this; the layouts are going to change many times until it's completely functionable, so I think there'll be loads of variations to comment on.

By the way, the next issue will not be released until tomorrow, late on the day, due to connection issues, just so you know.

Yey ! Happy happy happy. ^^ Glad that issue two is done... but now we have issue three to work on. O_o Thank god this isn't daily. :lol: It takes enough effort to make it weekly. Anyways. I rathered enjoyed this issue. It was more organized, although still could use some. I think the finished project looks great. ;D I think this week I will try to get my article in early so you can focus on working on the layout or whatever else you need to work on. ^^

-Maya

Yeah, this one was a little better, but...umm...Wolflux? Did something happen to the layout when I sent it to you? Because a few of the things I put in there were missing. Like the background colors -- without them, the banner looks a little...wierd. XD But I see you added separators...which helped a little.

Aside from the "pleasing to the eye" part, the "pleasing to read" part was much, much, better. ^^ Lots more articles and some good pictures.

I believe that it was perhaps the fact you sent it as a doc file and it was hard for him to get it into the proper format he needed ? I wouldn't know, but I recall him saying how it would be difficult to do so. XD But yeah. o_o Don't shoot me.

Yeah, the problem was that you sent it to me as .doc
When I use the .odt format, which converts perfectly fine to .pdf, with quite the good quality as well. And, I never recieved any background colours O.o
But as Maya said; there was a problem converting it, and I'll see if I can get it fixed.

EDIT: Looks like the issue file is temporary unavailible. I'll host a backup as soon as possible.

EDIT2: Backed up the issue; http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1Y9RBD5I

EDIT3: I'd love to have a nice background image on both sides of the next issue ;) Anyone who makes a set of "side-images" will be mentioned in TWB.

EDIT 4:

Well, yeah. You're right. This is hard work, but we're only getting better and better, but this stuff takes a lot of work ;)
But very rewarding in the end.

Oh...well, if I'd had known that sooner, I would've tried to make it better. XD Sorry about that. :mrgreen:

I read them, these are very very nice and I enjoyed reading your comments.
It must already be hard work to make a single one...
