Help Wanted!!

[ironcross]

Ok, im asking here first before I go else where. I need some people to help me update the Maiden Downunder web site.

* Firstly I need two people to help update the news. Most of my updates are site updates, but I would like to get more news from around the web. Once I find the people to help me with this i'll explain what I want.

* Secondly I need a couple of people to help do more frequent Newsletters. Phlogy would you like to head up the newsletter again? Other contributors would need to have a bit of a flare for writing. I'll want about three people for the newsletter.

I would like to make Maiden Downunder one of the biggest Iron Maiden sites. It gets an average of 80 individual hits and 200 page hits a day (Usually doubled or trippled when I update it).

I don't have to say its for volunteers. No financial gains unfortunatly.

Thanks
Chris

Do you need people who know how to do websites etc? As I dont know how to do ANYTHING like that, but i can always leave you a message on icq when i see maiden related news on the web with the site it came from?

 

[phlogiston]

Crossy, I'll do the newsletter thing again if you want. Assuming that I'll get contributions from the field this time, of course. *cough*Wrath*cough*

Depending on what you want, I'll help with the site updates as well. I'll make it a point to get on ICQ in the next few nights, and we'll chat.

(Btw - that reminds me...Anyone have me in their ICQ list? Can you tell me what my number is. I lost it during a recent reinstall).

Spawn : I use an online program called Blogger to update the news. You don't have to know much to get it working. I can do a tutorial anyway.

Phloggy : Sounds good. Hopefully we can get this off the ground this time. Also i'll let you know how to add news. Im going to have to work out what I want posted first.

Los4 : Welcome back

Email me at ironcross@maidencentral.net and we can work out a time to meet online.

Thanks
Chris

Point taken Phloggy . I'll get to work on my long-promised "Maiden Memoirs" as soon as I don't have deadlines (UM or otherwise) out the wazoo. Did you have a word length in mind?

[phlogiston]

I love deadlines. They make a nice wooshing sound as they go by.

And I think the average word length is 5-6 characters. (Everybody hates a smartarse )

But the longer you make, the more pages it can be spread over, so it can look like more work was done. It can be a bumper issue! One article 127 pages!!! (See above parenthesis)

But seriously folks, whatever you feel like will be a great improvement over what we got last time.

We also need NOTB reviewed! (Mark, Los4 and Crossy - I still have yours somewhere (I think)) C'mon people! Contribute!
