    Default Become Thybag 5 Staff?

    Thybag 5 needs a News team so as to be able to find and write about interesting news from around the web.

    On my own i only end up managing to update with around 1 new item a day, Im hopeing with more people updating the news, even if only every so often, More interesting news would become available at a faster pace.

    The news is updated threw a custom built inline AJAX news system, which works perfectly in firefox, and creakingly in IE due to a browser flaw.

    All you need is an account on thybag

    ==========================
    How do i know what counts as interesting news?
    - If you find it interesting and would want to read about it, chances are other people would.

    How much news would i be expected to contribute?
    - As long as you occasional provide interesting and informative news, where not really bothered, the more the better though.

    Should i copy and paste the news?
    - No, news on thybag should be written by the person posting it or at least paraphrased, so as to provided the most interesting aspects then leave a source link to allow someone to read the nity grity at there choice.

    Can i use html in the news?
    - No, but there is FULL BBcode support.

    If the news is taken from a site, the BBC for example, a link to the sorce should be provided at the end.

    No Payment is offered for the job.

    I think i gave my exscuse for the forum

    Anyway, im guessing your "colin" on thybag, And you sound like youd be perfect for the job.
    If you can think of any news catagorys etc you think i should ad or remove from the news system, suggestions would be most welcomed, can you just confrim that is your account though before i give it news posting abiltys.

    ps. when u do get them, sorry for the lack of post new news button
