Okay , I just read the latest newsletter and it's waaaaay boring , all I read was thanks to Fred100 because he's so awesome Jk
Nah , I kid myself
But seriously , we need better newsletters , the current ones are just like match commentaries which someone rarely listens to >.> , So you get the idea right?
How about adding something which might make people download the newsletter?
Like :
1. Lottery , yay I love lotteries , or a secret question!
2. DADADADADADA!!! Some Comics to give me company ! ( Oh was that a little loud?
I mean to give users company )
3. Some images saying "Fred100 is soo epic " Jk there's no need to do that
Just count the 2 points

If thats the suggestion i would directly vote a No.

Fred, agreed the Newsletter can be a little bit exciting. But with your ideas, it sounds noobish.

How about blog posts? On any topics that the users like. So basically we will make a sticky thread or something, wherein you can post your article on a certain topic & then if we find it acceptable then we post it in the newsletter.

Yeah , soo true , I actually ran out of ideas so had to make some stuff up
And uhm...what's up with the article thing?

See you like making sketches, so you can basically write anything about sketching. Why you like it, but it should make sense.
Or on a certain topic, how is global warming affecting us.

Something of that sort, basically a informative blog & your thoughts on it.

I do think we need atleast a comic section.

No offense intended , but Sanket that's even boring than before >.>
The newsletter doesn't seem that colourful , maybe a surprise something in the newsletter might make people download it and make the newsletter interesting

Well, Newsletter was started to provide the users with the things that have happened in the last month or to let them know whats going to be happening in the coming month.
I guess you yourself are not clear as to what you want, maybe if you get your mind clear post your thoughts.

Yea so true , All I want is a colourful and interesting newsletter which gives info too , and is awesome to read as well

Sorry Fred, but things like this really annoys me...
It's always easy to stand outside and tell people what to do and what not to do! Everybody thinks and act different. It's not that easy to do a cool, funny newsletter, and still summon everything that's happened the last month!

If you felt like this, why didn't you do a newsletter instead and sent to the staff, and said ... Hey... Why don't you do the newsletters this way!!

No offense Fred I don't mean to step on your toes, but as I said.. It's always easy to stand on the outside looking in.

Wow , that's pretty deep , and...oh well , I feel real stupid making the topic now >.>.
It can be locked now

hmmm..

You say that the news letter is boring. Ok. But is it boring content vise or look vise?

What do we need to improve? The look and feel? or you want to see some surprises/gifts in it?

Please explain this.

Okey , so here is what I thought
"The newsletters are pretty boring , how about adding some stuff in it so that more people would be into downloading it instead of just some active members"

how to make the newsletter better? post it here instead of us downloading it. You'll be surprised by how much it'll help;)

Nah , If they'll just post it here , it won't be a "Special Newsletter" anymore , which it's supposed to be
So a no go for that one

The question is still unanswered

What can we add so that more and more members will download it instead of just active members? Adding comics to news letter of a web design site won't make sense

Any other ideas?

Oh yeah , lol
I'm real stupid lol , so how about comic strips telling about coding stuff?
Oh wait *grin* , I got a cool Idea for me next tutorial
And idk , maybe something cool which tells some code , and My post would make more sense atm , that's because I'm not feeling drowsy for the time

By the way just for your info, we had 39 downloads of the newsletter 1.

So that just shows, that not only the active members downloaded it but others did as well

Oh well , As I said before , if you think the idea's stupid I've got no questions anyway or other >.>
Lock it please?

Well, we were waiting for you to provide us with constructive suggestions. Since, you no longer have one, i think as you said.
If others have any suggestion, please forward your points.

My Ideas are all stupid and don't make sense anyway , I know this one won't make either , but here goes
How'bout using some comic strips and use them in a manner which acutally tells the milestones of the forum .
And I can really not think of anything except comic strips , oh wait I have another Idea ,
How about some characters telling stuff about your milestones?
I really can't think of anything else except that.

You mean kinda like a children's books?

What?
Of Course not >.>
That's ridiculous , I just suggested about adding something which looks nice and tells about the forum milestones and stuff.
After all it's "web" ARTZ ( You can see I emphasized more on ARTZ )

If i want to make it look more nice with links, i will have to avoid pdf files. Use some high end software to create it.

I don't think its feasible to really spend time on making them look out of the world.

Sanket, you could do them as html files and save it as a web archive file!

Well, i had thought of having a html file, its as good as making a webpage. Thats what we didn't want to do. To make html pages for a newsletter.
