Ok, so I guess some people usually say they are bored while grinding or wairing for an event neh?
Well I created this guide specially for YOU who is bored!... o.o
Step 1. Go to this FB page and read the texts on the "Newspaper" pictures
https://www.facebook.com/groups/121744277980535/
Step 2. If you are from one of these servers, feel free to PM me if you got a nice story or some picture we can make a story with,
and if its good enough we might use it and give you some credits for the picture or story.
"S12 S14 S18 S21 S22 S23 S27"
Step 3. If this isn't the case and you aren't part of one of those servers you can start your own newspaper (or we can have another newspaper on the server.
Step 4. To start a newspaper you first need to get some idea's, try walking around on the server checking out every inch of every map exploring it to the fullest, even I sometimes find new places on maps that I've never seen before or can't remember I've ever been to. This might give you nice places for pictures.
Step 5. You need to think of how to bring your newspaper to the world.. like what program you'll use etc. I myself use Photoshop but there tons of other programs you can use ^-^ with this whatever program you want.
Step 6. Check out some newspapers online what they look like and design the layout for your newspaper (or magazine whatever you wanne make. you can also just make a server info page and just post random stories online for the fun of the readers.)
Step 7. Go story//picture hunting. Sometimes you get a story before you got a picture, sometimes its the other way around that you see something epic and take a screenshot only to write about it later.
Step 8. Be open to other peoples stories and pictures, accept some stories and pictures from others. You might have to edit some things but people like it when their stories//pictures are used and give them credits for it.
Step 9. Ask everyone and do this yourself aswell... to make the chat disappear for the screenshot and drag the questbar down to give yourself more useable space for the screenshot.
Step 10. When you got the screenshot crop it so that you can make everything you dont need (minimap, skillbar etc etc.) disappear so it wont be on your picture you'll use for your newspaper//magazine whatever. This + step 9 is also something you can use for the picture contest on the forum ^-^
Step 11. Edit pictures if needed. (look at the colours real newspapers are, most of them are black and white, some are with colour. For a magazine page this aint much of a problem as those are fullcolour most of the time.) You can also remove names etc whatever you dont want if you're good with programs, but you dont have to as it also gives abit of credit to the person on the picture.
Step 12. Come with a suiting name for whatever you wanne make ^-^ Like we got "The Vidalia Times"
Step 13. Try making one with fake text and ask what people think of it.
Step 14. Spread the word that you have a newspaper//magazine etc. with other people
Step 15. Have fun writing stories and screenshotting together with other people =D
And there yah go =D you got something to do when you dont know what to do!!!
