Welcome to the not-really-newest-because-people-think-it's-cool-to-make-newsletters-now newsletter that I decided to make about 4 weeks ago.
Next issue will be released November 20th.
Warts Smith's Guide to reading this work of art:
Main Article:
Here I write about something important that is going on currently and my views as well as others' views on the subject....maybe.
Current Events:
Here I tell you about some important and fun stuff that's going on in BTC that I don't feel like writing an article about at the moment.
....What?:
Here I'll put something that I find just...weird that will make you think to yourself, "....what?"
Crazy Shorties:
Here's a little rendition of my comic series "The Crazy Wart" put in newsletter form.
Citizen Spotlight:
Here I'll find a citizen that I feel like asking stupid questions to and ask them a bunch of stupid questions that I will think of directly on the spot and pretend it's an interview.
TCC Archive:
Issue #1
Issue #2
Issue #3
Thanks for reading The Crazy Chronicles, if you have any comments, questions, concerns, or weird statements, feel free to post them here.....just don't make me have to ban you from the thread please. _________________

A slight shade difference between the article areas and the main background would be an improvement, in my opinion, but it's pretty sweet! Keep it going! |

Yeah I'm going to do template experiments but I couldnt really think about something that could go with it so I just kept at white and put up so I could get some feedback. _________________

When you said, "Don't Dissapoint Ben!" Did you mean, BIG ben? |

Hey everyone I would appreciate some collective criticism so I can get better at this. I want to start working on stuff prior to putting the next issue together. _________________

How did I not see this?
Anyway two main niggles:
Watch the white, perhaps use some faint colours, maybe even a custom 'CC' background (like the WB one).
Writing is fine, there's just a tiny bit too much space in the main article box, aim to write more than needed then delete parts.
Anything else you'll begin to fine-tune yourself as time goes on.
Keep up the good work, don't become as lazy as me. _________________

New TCC tomorrow, by the way don't pester me, I'm in a different time zone than most of you guys so when I say my due dates, I mean in my time. It's still the 26th here in my house so, don't bug me.
I didn't have much time to do dramatic changes to the layout, I did some simple shading to it, I hope to improve even more for issue 3, but at the moment I'm still working on some sections in TCC, but it will without a doubt be up tomorrow. _________________
