» Welcome.

Welcome to the Destiny News Channel Guidelines thread. Below you will find some guidelines for posting news into the News Channel. Most of our news is posted by staff members, and some other valued contributors. Don't forget, members can post news for the News Channel too! Please note there are a few guidelines you must follow before posting your news to the News Channel.

» Rules for Posting News.

The Destiny News Channel has a few rules; they are basic but are meant to be followed at all times. If your news does not follow the correct format, your news post will be immediately trashed, and if conditions permit you will also receive a warning. The rules are here to help you as a contributor to the Destiny News Channel, and to cut down on plagiarism.
  • News MUST be written in your own words. This means you CAN NOT copy and paste news from another website.
  • Your article may be edited for grammar issues, or if the template is incorrect.
  • Try to be creative. Add a little spice to your news post. Keywords, images, banners, videos, anything that will help your news post stand out.
  • Your news source must be credible. Do not post news that you have found on Yahoo Answers or some obscure source like that.
  • Please follow the template. It's there for a reason
» Rules for Posting News.

Please note that all headers must be in a size five font. And the font must be bold faced, and Verdana. All text placed in your news must be in a size four font, and the font must be Verdana as well. You news headers must also include a left double arrow quote for. This is crucial that you follow these guidelines. This fixed font and size allows the news to be 'friendlier' to users who have a lower resolution monitor. This will also override any skin font settings, so it will look the same on every skin.

Please place all images accordingly into your article. Please do not try to compact all the images at the end of the article unless it is absolutely necessary. In this case please use the spoiler tag and place all your images into the spoiler tag. If an image is wider than 600px please provide a link to the image. This will stop the page from stretching. Please upload you images to a reliable image host. I recommend Photobucket, or Tinypic.

Below, I will provide the Destiny News Channel images, so thus you can post news correctly. Along with this I will provide a sample article of how to set up your new post.
