One thing you can do for news is follow the hobbit official on fb, twitter etc... follow wetta workshop, all the organizations that post their updates, news bits etc...

Halia could you please edit your first post next time if you have something to add, instead of posting two consecutive posts? The edit button can be found on the bottom-right corner of your post.

Yeah, typically double posting is frowned upon. I did it several times when I started so it's just one of those things everyone has to find out. *shrugs* This is a good idea, however. I've looked up some news from the official sites but as of yet we are not able to put it up on the front unit I hear back from the mods. EDIT: By the way Synariel I have an edit you can use on the blog.

News is a great idea, it would be good if we could include more site/forumbased news too, maybe like a contest or something, just so we're no parroting ToRN all the time  Jax, I've noticed a couple of times where you've offered Graphics, have you made them yourself or asked permission from the artist? Some people get very upset if they find their work posted without their knowledge or the proper credits

I spoke with Ea and we can't remember how to access the front page of the website for adding news and whatnot. However, try contacting Bellatrix and Johnny's Fan and see if you can work with them to update the news section.

Some people get very upset if they find their work posted without their knowledge or the proper credits  The graphics I have offered have been my banners. (Which I did not make but were made for me) The edit above I did. I figured since the banners were made in years past by members here on the forum for me I didn't think it would hurt. Though, thanks for the word of caution, that is a good thing to keep in mind. Halia wrote: Oopsies, sorry for double posting. -_- No worries, I've done it in the past.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Wow, nice edit Jax!!  Do you want to add a watermark of your name or AU before I post it? Just so no one tries to take it. Also, if we can't contact Bellatrix or Johnny's Fan after a while, since Arwen has offered to help maybe we could try asking her to give us access? I guess we'll see if we can't get a hold of them.

Ah, good idea Synariel!  That work? Yes, I will try Johnnys Fann first and we can move forward from there.

I've had a lot on my plate and my computer broke so I had to get a new one and whatnot. I'm still game for being part of a news team, but I don't want to be the only one keeping it up like it felt I was before. With how my life looks right now I just can't make the commitment to carry the load alone.
However, once I get photoshop installed on my computer again (as I said, new computer, no programs installed) I could possibly help out with some graphics. I do know a bit of CSS coding but again, I can't take on something that huge right now.

Sounds good Bellatrix! I would be willing to post a bit of news as well and I think Synariel said she would be also. I am unsure how you get access, however, and the mods I talked to said they didn't know either.
I would be fine with just PMing you a pre-writen piece or posting it myself if given access. I'm game so long as we can get things rolling.

I've got a few errands to run soon-ish, but once I'm finished I'll P; you the instructions I got on how to post news to the site. But I believe someone has to give you permission to do so first, but unsure about that. I'll look through my PMs and see what I can find.

Alright, sounds good.
I'll wait for the PM and then go from there. Thanks.

I'm really sorry, but I can't find the instructions among my emails. I've bookmarked them though, tomorrow I'll try to see what I can do but today I have things I have to look after outside of home.
