Guidelines
The single rule for an article is; it must somehow be linked to Ubuntu or one of the many derivatives of Ubuntu (Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Edubuntu etc).
Please follow these rules :
Write your article in whichever software you choose, I would recommend OpenOffice, but most importantly - PLEASE SPELL CHECK IT!
- In your article, please indicate where you would like a particular image to be placed.
- Images should be either JPG or PNG. If you must use JPG please use very little compression.
- Regarding image sizes; if in doubt, send a full size screengrab and we will reduce the size before publication.
We always need help with articles. Articles can be of anything as long as it follows the single rule mentioned above. If you can't write articles but hang out in forums, send us interesting forum threads that we could print. If your native language is not English, don't worry, write your article and one of us on the team will proof-read it for you, not only are you helping the magazine and the community but we'll help you with your English!
There are jobs for everyone so please, help out.
Article Editing on the Wiki
Collaboration between writers and community is highly encourage but can also destroy a writers article. Please; if you think an article needs major changes, contact the writer to discuss the changes first. Many writers do not want someone changing half their article, and rightly so...
Article Ideas
Add your ideas for articles in the right category page below, if you want to use the idea for an article, please add your name beside it. Also if you are working on an article, add it here and place your name beside it so that someone else doesn't work on a similar article. These pages will also enable people to give ideas for articles.
Magazine Categories
# guys, i've added the categories as pages since if everything is on one page we'd all be trying to edit one page, possibly at the same time, and this would cause problems.
This section is for news and info related to all flavours, and derivatives, of Ubuntu and within the Linux world in general.
Explain, step-by-step, the installation of an Ubuntu derived OS. What will it ask? What does it install? Not so much a review, more of a showcase.
Readers who have something to say or discuss. This would also include snippets from the various 'buntu mailing lists and forums. Entire, full, threads welcome.
Where readers can review software that they personally use, this can also include hardware but with hardware please state if the hardware comes with Linux 'drivers' or they have to be obtained elsewhere.
These would be, again, related to any Ubuntu derived OS. They must be detailed and have relevant screens where necessary. General rule; the more screens the better. Also the writer must say which 'buntu distros the article is applicable to. You can write on ANYthing you wish. Installing/configuring distro's, apps, games, whatever... as long as it runs on some form of Ubuntu.
Where someone interviews a person within the 'buntu circle. This can be anyone from a forum mod to a 'buntu developer. Preferably the interviewee would be announced the issue before the interview, thus giving readers the chance to submit their questions.
Where readers can explain why Microsoft suck and why they chose Linux and 'buntu in particular. BUT; the article will only be printed if it is a serious discussion. No mud-slinging without good reason!
Readers can send in a screengrab of their desktop and explain how they got that desktop. What background are they using? What font(s)? Any extra widgets or applications that you had to install/configure?
