Section 1: Cover; Main Ideas, Sub Titles, at the very top: THE FEDERATION TIMES; possibly a picture/drawing if conventional.

Section 2: Advertisement for 2 Endorsed Shops, 2 Small/Certified/Guild Involved Shops, 1 Big-Time Shop; 1 TSF Scratcher, 1 Employee, 1 TSF Scratcher's project; Possibly an Ad or 2 concerning TSF's recent endeavors. (House of Reps, Summit reminder, etc.)

Section 3: Interviews w/ Scratchers who have released a long anticipated project, are the owners of a unique shop, owners of a big shop, etc. Other topics could include big time Scratchers talking about some issues they are currently experiencing. (Like I know The Doctor is currently upset over the fact that the most recent Scratch update has messed up his Creature game among others.)

Section 4: Articles about different TSF endeavors, in much more detail than in the ads. Specialized campaigns, the cover article, and any other Scratch News deemed fit.

Section 5: Polls; Potentially a few quick articles; Maybe an Editor's Note, etc.

This should probably be seen in this discussion as well. I also updated it.

I'd imagine that to be so.

Alright. So, that fills up 2 of our Small Shop things, now we would have 2 Endorsed Shops, but those are outdated, so we will instead just let 2 other small, committed Shops fill the role.

This issue we have:
We already have the issue # above ^

Editors are ready for election. And Monkey, we are going to keep you out of it, since there are 4. Hope you are fine with that, considering you are already second in command.

I sure will. I am also going to put myself in as a Writer, but that is 2 (Maybe 3 if Mega wins Head Editor) people who can't be a Head, so keep coming in to the Writers position!

I will be able to transform that Interview into an Article easier than most I'd presume, so I'll take that role.

The reviews are reviews of shops, correct?

It is aimed for really anyone who sees it. Active TSF members will obviously see it, but hopefully we can get some additional readers from either being a common TSF Rep, a passerby, or anywhere in between.

If the reader is new to TSF, it will be great because we can either draw their Shop in, or they can look at some of the Ads and we will have done our job.

It's aimed at everyone on the forums. Specifically customers.

On that note, there should be a section that gives a list of the best shops to go to for certain things.
