AGS Blog: Call for writers

[SSH]

Hey folks,

You may have noticed but I have less and less time to do blog stuff these days, so if anyone would like to take over being the main AGS Blogger, I'd love to hear from you. Of course, if there are multiple volunteers then that could work too and you can share the load! Anyway, PM me and include your google account or email  so I can invite you to be a contributor.

There are not many rules, but the blog does tend to be "Safe for Work" so no cussin' or naughty pictures, please, and nothing likely to get us sued (e.g. illegal download links or libelous accusations) !

Thanks,

Mr SSH

You may have noticed but I have less and less time to do blog stuff these days, so if anyone would like to do an incredibly in-depth retrospective of the Barn Runner series in weekly installments followed by a shockingly insightful look at the more esoteric corners of the Oceanspirit Dennis universe, I'd love to hear from you.

Hmmm.... A tempting offer...

If only Barn Runner met the "no naughty pictures" rule....

[Retro Wolf]

Come on Ponch!

That, sir, falls under the "libelous accusations" rule! Well, it would if it weren't true.

Ghost, just so you know, a post has to have the 'AGS' tag (label) to appear on the feed on the AGS front page.

Yikes! I shall correct that instantly! Thanks, AGA!

[edit]
Done  Also added proper additional tags.

I'd take this up just to switch back to the original paper tan theme instead of this transparent white block color sky Fireworks CS2 theme.

I could do this, it's just reporting releases right? And awards and people Kickstarting(or indieGOGOing or [funding website here]ing) and big high profile project announcements?

[SSH]

So, thanks to Armageddon, Ghost and Jo DiPerla for volunteerring and thanks to AGA for mentioning the tags... that was your training course, new guys

Feel free to post about anything relevant to AGS. I used to trawl google back in the early days of the blog, or write tutorials, etc. Anything relvant and clean is good.

By the way, I tried to do the tags thing myself, SSH, but didn't seem to be able.  I do still have the option to create new posts though.  Is it because the post was written by someone other than myself that I couldn't edit it?  Not that it matters either way, I'm just curious.

So, I don't know how to make new posts. I made a blogspot account with my e-mail but I don't see anything to post?

[Joseph DiPerla]

Same here with 'geddon. Cant seem to locate a post area. Even on my Dashboard... I can post to my other blogs, but not to the AGS Blog.

[Ghost]

I don't know if it's different for Google Accounts that already have another blog (which I do), but for me it's at the page's top right corner, "New Post".
It's a bit hard to read against the bleeding background.

[Joseph DiPerla]

Yeah, just tried to copy and paste the blogid into a new edit form and it tells me I do not have proper access to view that page (The new article page).

[SSH]

Wierd. Resent the invitations to see if it works this time.

Dunno, maybe. I'll make you an admin for future contingencies.

[AGA]

Muhahahaha, my plan finally comes together.  What other AGS related media are there left for me to conquer?

[Joseph DiPerla]

Awesome, I am in. Thanks SSH.
