News Change

[admin]

Hey guys,

so the way the news system works now is if you post to /news/ it will show up in the buzz but utilizing the news system allows you to upload graphics and format the story. Plus then that news shows up in related areas on the site.

if you all could look around and try to post 1 item a day it would be great help right now. news is an area that we want to expand in. I will be hiring someone soon to help with this kind of stuff but right now all my funds are going to the programming team to finish up bugs and the job system.

any help is greatly appreciated!

Will

I'd love to help out on this. I'll have to look around.
What sort of stuff is news anyway/...I post a lot of upcomming movie stuff I like, and I just did something on the xbox 360 bundles. would that all be news worthy? I'd love to upload graphics with it, if thats the case consider it done.
Can I list info from other areas? or, just curious if theres some way to go about news or I might be overthinking this since I'm on a weekend no sleep work run haha

the way the new system is setup the more the better. in the news system users can view by category and filter by related software, so nothing will crowd any users preferences.

we also have a new events section which is similar in technology.

as soon as im done with all these bugs im going to write up detailed press releases for each section and possibly video tutorials for each where need be.

but the more you guys can help now will hopefully get the ball rolling so users can see they can do it themselves....

I'll be happy to help!
Things are busy at work at the moment, but I'll get on it soon.

P.S. Once I post the news, how long should it take to show up?
