It's not actually that bad - I like it.
However, I do disagree with the point of BTC being hard to design and program. Ioji has the main engine already incorporated, and the designing aspect should be pretty simple, as he's revised it constantly when making the locations in BTC.
Also, save in .PNG. _________________ Twitter |

I'd appreciate you keeping your tags right -- use [img] when you want a picture approved.
Other than that, your lack of optimism is saddening, but the layout's pretty neat. I could see this being alright. |

You should really post to say you've updated it, otherwise people will totally ignore it.

Rather than abandon this thread I see this as an opportunity to start a debate into what people think should be done about this glut of Newsletters? |

I think forming a group which works on one single newsletter would be the best idea, but then there's the problem of deciding who does what and who designs/edits it. |

I'll direct your attention to TAQ Mk I. User contributed content was in it, but often B had to ask for it last minute, eventually giving up with it all together.
So far, Row is the only person who's been reliable with additional content, and even that she's sent weeks in advance.
If there was a team, there'd have to be one person who leads, and picks up the slack when others don't do their job, by doing it for them last-minute-half-heartedly. _________________

Actually the idea could work, but I feel that people will get ranks based on how well known they are. If someone new joins and they want to be part of this then we can easily shun them. Take Blackbird for example he has to be the newest person to come on and reach out to us, we nearly shunned him from the community.
If we were to do something like this, we should make the joining like a Translator registration showing what skills you have and how good you are at them.
But another problem comes to mind and that is the originality of the newsletter, personally I don't think a mishmash of peoples personalities can fit into one newsletter. _________________

Most newsletters are full of different peoples opinions and personalities, you'd just have to watch the editor in case (s)he changes things people write. _________________
