Does anyone need any art for anything? Stories, columns, whatever. I'm just very bored right now. 

so whaddaya think of my anonymity idea?

Well... I called for anonymity, too. Before you, even. 
(I think)

i meant with how people would come up with a word we would call them, that has something to do with their question.

Yeah, like in the real-life newspapers. Okay.
(I'm going to sign off now... I'm starting to feel really crabby, which means that Scratch time is over. :P)

Plus guys, I just realized something. We need to make our articles more suprising, you know? LIke say something people dont already know. something a little more interesting. Uncover the truth whether its suprising or scarey, or ugly.

I agree 100%!

I'm not sure if the alternate advice column would work  . This newspaper is more about Scratch than relationships and such.

ok! by the way, i had an idea for Scripting Success. i was thinking we could do it about how you do that scroll bar for the articles in the Scratch Chatter. im sure a lot of people (including me) would benefit from knowing how to make a scroll bar.

That's a good idea! I'll add it.

i was about to say i would write it...but i dont know how to do it.    i guess whoever programmed that (you, right?) should write it.

I've got it  . Do you have any ideas for articles?

i have an idea for something i would like to write. I would need a reporter or at least someone to help me, though. We could dig in the depths of Scratch and choose a random Scratcher who has really good projects but not enough recognition. Then after we find enough info about the Scratcher and their projects, I could write an article. That could be done as a column regularly, too. But that might take a lot of reporting work. Here's my other ideas:
-Scratch etiquette
-Featured forum thread (where we could write about a cool thread in Making and Creating, or Reading and Playing)
That's all I have. I'm able to write articles for any of those ideas.

I kind of like the featured forum thread idea. However, it doesn't seem to have much of a shock factor. We need to find a forum thread people will be interested in.

EDIT: Do you think it should be a new column, or just an interest story? I think that it'd make a better column. Also, have you looked at the updated assignments list?

I agree for column. In terms of shock factor...I'm gonna find it. I'll start looking now. I'll be back soon! I'll post here if I find anything.

works for me. Anyway, here's the first thing I found:

some of it is shocking...some of it.
well, it's a start. you should take a look. we can always pull out bits and pieces from that thread and quote them if we decide on this.

As I said, workable, but not with amazing shock factor (sorry if I'm being demanding :\).
