Perhaps you could read the post. You need to post an Application. You can be an Author or an Advertiser at this time.

I'm the one doing it everyday. Authors can make articles and Advertisers can ask for ads whenever they want.

Perhaps you can post it when it is completed?

This sounds cool, as I now only report for Scratchin' Weekly, I could try and split my time between the two papers.

Author Application
Example sentence(s): Look at my Scratchin' Weekly articals.
Show me some experience: APP, Scratchin' Weekly, Lost Coin Animations, Big Cat OS and Collab Directory.
Level of activity 1-10: 8-10
Anything else: I won't be able to write an artical a day, as I say from above, to many other things. I could try and do an artical every 3 days though…

You are in! Yet, it's spelled ARTICLE. Might have to work on that. :]

So, what kind of article do you want to write?

Yay! Whoops! You will need to check all my spelling, its quite bad… I like writing serious ARTICLEs like about collabs or historys of Scratch. I don't do game reviews, as I only know little games that are good, but have hardly and views. Though I will be inactive again for a few days, so you will have to do something without me. Yay! No annoying things from cheeseeater!

It was a class at the local science museum that I learned to program, but I had tried the program before in my early programming days when I used RMXP.

Tierage wrote:
What inspires you to Scratch?

I don't really know,. I just like it. Sometimes i see something in the physical world that i want to make, or sometimes when i am playing a game (another scratch project, video game, card game, etc), I want to make my own version of it. Mostly it's just a challenge to do something in the program that I haven't done before.

Tierage wrote:
What was the project you made that you liked the most?

I had a lot of fun with Aftermath because i had organized the game engine to be completely editable, so I was really able to make a lot of nifty graphics and stuff. I especially like the wind turbine scene near the end.

Some people might think I have lots of fun with Spectrum ,but really, the *** i go through while making those games… It's arduous.

Tierage wrote:
Do you have any plans for after Scratch?

I want to go to college and major in mathematics, chemistry, or computer science. I might move on to other programs where I can actually sell my stuff.

Tierage wrote:
What did you do before Scratch?

The year of 2010, i started to program my TI-83 calculator to make formulas easier. My first program ever was the pythagorean theorem, then later I created a quiz about the capitals and countries of asia. After a few months, I downloaded the free version of RPG maker XP and programmed just a little, but this is where i learned sprite graphics. In 2011 I made an RPG on my calculator. Then a few months later I learned Scratch.

Okay, thanks! This will soon be added to a future issue of Scripts Daily.

Okay, I'm now doing Partnerships! Partnerships will be associated studios, collaborations, and teams that are mentioned on the front page of some Scripts Daily as sponsors. They are also listed in the studio and the original post. Find the application in the application section!

Just another wannabe Scratchin' Weekly

XD LOL, I didn't know we were THAT good. Anyhow, I'd like to apply as an author:
Example sentence(s): As I stood there, I became subtly aware of the tears streaming down my good eye. Despite everything that was happening, I was glad that my body had a helmet; if my subconsciousness was crying, so am I.
Show me some experience: Dunno what to put.
Level of activity 1-10: 8
Anything else: And the ants went marching- *ahem* Nothing at this point.

The ironic thing? I'm head of Scratchin' Weekly. XD
