Oh, I have an idea for the newspaper. For each section in the newspaper, what about there being different music? Like, the music that was used for the last one, would it really go well with a spooky story, or a long review for a project about world peace? What there is now would be fine for reports on things like level-up games or jokes, but will it really go well with everything else?

Anyway, that's just an idea for ya'll to think about.
Neat, but it could get annoying. Hmm… SEG4EP powers activate! (I'll see what I can do.)

@Purple - Too late. It's officially official. XD I like it. And if you can do that, that would be nice. I'd give the background more of a yellow color, though.

EDIT: Also, I can access the collab account now.

If it's done right, it shouldn't get annoying. Maybe have the page and sound fade out and then back in when the person changes the page?

Okay! Yeah, I'm thinking a sudden change… Once we have an interface (which Purple's doing, right?), then I'll work on implementing it.

Basically, just the template you had in project form with the article parts (one with the title of the article on the top, one a continuation of the article).

I'll start the super potato comic. Also, can I do a history of April fools' on scratch as an article? I need something to edit. Spelling / Grammar check.

This made me cry. NO!!! NOT THE BOW TIE!!!

StarstcreamClone how will you be putting the text into the pages? If you are planning to do it in scratch then please use vector

So do you want me to write the articles into the pages or just give you the empty pages?

Alsoooo, since it is going to be a newspaper format, we can really effectively advertise. Like putting ads onto the side of the articles, and that cartoon I draw in he bottom…

Game review:
Inverted by AlphaAxle

This is a game that currently is on the top loved project row, and has over 200 loves! It is very creative as it is mainly where you press space to change the positions of land, or “invert” as he calls it. It is so creative that you have to play the game to understand what were saying! The motion is also very smooth. You also can't even tell if the ball is rolling or staying upright because it's a plain solid color! There is a way to cheat on the last level. (found very occasionally) Very little bugs have been found, the menu graphics are great, and the music is very fitting and good-sounding! Rating: 10/10

Sure! Can you fill out the application, please? Thanks!

@jkl0l - Yes you may. Just be aware that we had an April Fools' article in the last issue.

@Purple - Just the blank ones. I'm probably going to do 1.4, though, as I'm definately sure I can copy and paste into that (plus, there aren't restrictions for the most part). I'll sort out color and stuff with that, so don't worry. With advertisements, how many ads would you say we can fit per issue? Because I can go around show and tell and say ‘if you advertise us, we’ll advertise you' or something of the sort.

@goldfish - If you could set up the review like WASDgamer did for the last issue, it would be more in-depth (especially if you could interview the creator). I may put that as standard format in the first post.

Okay. Well, I think we can fit say, um, maybe 1 add on the front page, and 1 add per article? Also, I have a certain friend who would be a very good person to get a deal with… I think that if we want to advertise we should target the scratchers who have like 100-300 followers, not the big guys with around a thousand. It would get us known and they would most likely accept.

I would think either leave ads to the front page and/or have a page dedicated to ads, just so it doesn't seem spammy is all. Advertising-wise, perhaps, but we'll want to leave it open to all Scratchers, as well. We'll most likely gain publicity gradually.

So, I just commented to scratcher5000 (he is a guy I knew a while back) asking if we could advertise eachother. I have no doubt he will accept. He has 297 followers.
