Submit A Post

Guidelines on post submissions:

- Be thoughtful and creative. Copying and pasting other people’s work from other sites is a no-no, but you can reference stuff in your post with links.


- Please use a spell checker and make your blog post coherent. To maintain the quality of the blog, submissions with bad spelling or horrendous grammar will be rejected. So please check your work!

- Please note that I, or one of the editors, will need to approve a blog before it gets published, this is the only way to ensure the quality of the posts is good and that nobody takes advantage of this service to spam or for personal use.

To write a blog post, login and click on ‘Write’ in the tab at the top.

* You will see this window where you have all the tools to write your blog. To add pictures, click on the gray square next the ‘Add Media’ and upload a pic.  Alternatively, you press the green button (with the tree) and submit the weblink to that pic (to get a link, upload the picture to a free service like photobucket or imageshack then copy the link they provide - it’ll start with http:// ).

* You can also embed videoes into your post, but it is slightly more complicated.  You’ll need to find the embed code for a video first, most services like Youtube or Veoh provide this code conveniently next to the video somewhere.  Next, click on the HTML tab (next to Visual) and paste in that code where you want the video to appear.  Please DO NOT embed more than three videos into your blog!  If you have more, just make them into simple links (press the chain icon).  Videos take up lots of blog space and can take long to load.

* There’s a built in spellchecker (ABC checkmark button)… please use it :)

* Below the writing box, there’s a menu where you can select which categories fit your blog best.

* If you aren’t finished your post, you can save it and come back to it later.  If you’ve completed your post, press Submit for Review and either myself or an editor will look it over as soon as possible.  It may be a good idea to save another copy of your blog on your own computer.  You can copy/paste your post directly into a word processor like MS Word.  To preserve the formating of your blog, you can also press on the HTML tab (beside the Visual one) and copy/paste all the HTML code into a text document (right click on your desktop, select new, scroll to text document).

    Yup, that’s the whole idea. Hopefully this format will make it easier for people. I’ve seen people type an entire blog post worth of text in a comment box, so why not just make it into an official post?

    The tradeoff of making it easier to people to make a post is that they can’t edit their stuff after they submit it and also can’t add pictures and links. The other option is giving people ‘author’ status which pretty much gives you the same options as I have when writing up a post (edit, add pics, etc..). I made you an author already zep, so you just need to login and find the ‘write’ tab on the dashboard to start posting.

    I learned that the hard way too. I used to write my blog posts the same way and sometimes I close the window before I press submit; and you know how long my posts can be, but like Pein says: pain helps you grow… or just makes you go postal on your computer :P

    I have just completed a blog. I’d like to submit it once I get home this evening. Is there a way for me to add pix to it? How can I attain “author” status. The blog that I want to submit is just part 1 of 2. I’ll finish part 2 after I read friday’s manga. Part of that chapter may change a theory of mines.

    Yes, an author has to post it. And if you would please see my previous comment in “The New Naruto Movie & Confessions”. You can type your blog up and send it to any one of us, but we can’t promise that it will be posted right away. We have seriously had too many posts to keep up with lately and we’re looking to get more organized. ^_^;;

    Try writing the blog on another format, like Microsoft word or something and then copy and paste.

    Bob isn’t here to okay the post so you’ll have to e-mail it to an author in order for it to be posted.

    To answer ur question SSJ Sasuke:

    It may take a while depending on the scheduling of your post to get published. It’s because there are a lot of submissions as well as a lot of authors whom may have a post already set for a specific date. Thus, please be patient with your submission. And best of luck for your blog!

    @ fan boy
    I´m almost 3 month here and almost Jonin elite, so you doesnt need to wait so long.
    But I still have the feeling that I´m a newbie, because I dont increase my english skills so much and I stay a newbie until I´m a blog contributor because that means that my english is good enough to make post without failure.

    I heard, at the moment there´s no place for new authors.
    I guess you have to wait and write good blogs and than hope
