Scratch

A while ago, I made this popular magagazine by myself in Scratch about the latest things going on in Scratch. I've been trying for a while to get another magazine out but the problem is that since I am doing it by myself, by the time I am ready to post, the information is mostly old. Readers are not usually interested in reading the old info. I think that with a team, this magazine can really improve greatly.

   The quality of the magazines were not very great. I would first make a square on the screen and put a gradient on it. I guess that was pretty good since the first issue was made when I first joined Scratch. In the latest ones that were deleted, I used Fireworks for the graphics. I still can but that just took way more time than it should have because I had to adjust the text on every line. We'll see what we can do ^u^

Before we go along, if you would like to see some of the old magazines for examples. I don't reccomend looking at the first ones because I made those when I first joined Scratch. I think they were pretty popular if you ask me

The old Rockers Weekly magazines were very community based and I would still like to keep that aspect. For all the special pages like artwork, comics and jokes, I always allow any scratchers to submit their own things. So some weeks you may have a break and I will notify you.

I'll give everyone the date soon of when the next Rockers Weekly will come out so we can all get started.

I guess that's it for now. If you have any questions or suggestions about this, please tell me below and apply for a job!

Thanks,
JJROCKER
