I have up what I'm done with for May. If you all like it we can Put a link up so people can look at it there. I will cont to post on forum as well however. Just a thought. Also, this way people coming into KoA can see them without having to search forums.

Red, newspaper site idea is awesome ! For 5 minutes effort the page looks good.

I have few suggestions for layout. If it's a webpage, we can have links/index to articles on left side. And the page can be of tow-column layout, since there will be more reading space. For long term I am guessing we will have same color scheme,template, etc. as koaclan.co.uk.

I totally support the web site idea, since it allows lot more flexibility and efficiency to express an editor's creativity.

Sounds good. We'll see what I can do with coding it. It's a free website so not too much I can do ATM about editing it. I'll play around with it if I get the go ahead.

What did u think of may's edition so far?

Red, It look's great so far. I really liked the horoscope and comics :lol:

I like the title graphics you created. I think a multi column layout will help, since we have so much content. Or maybe a book layout with multiple pages.

Hope there's place for the poll results :) Do you still need the dungeoneering article, or should we defer it?

What we currently have seems to work with the newspaper being located in the forums. Can you please explain to me the need for the separate website?
