Looks like there's a small bit of confusion, so I'm going to try to clear that up and answer all the questions in one swift stroke.

YWS News will be an entirely new section of YWS with a link to it in the header; probably between Resources and Blogs. It will be updated as often as people add new stuff to it (that means continually). When you go to the YWS News section, you'll see a link that either says "Add Article" or "Submit Article".

By the way, glad to see the response so far. I'm hoping to get this done this week; I actually intended to do a lot of work today on it but it was so incredibly nice outside (74F and sunny).

Hey Nate, most guys' question: Will there be a sport section or won't that work because of international audience and stuff? Can there be advertisements and stuff?

Sports and an international audience go together pretty well. And some people might be interested in sports from around the world.

Can there be advertisements and stuff?


Advertisements for what? Please clarify.

As usual, Rosey is spot-on.

Ooerz!
Will there be a fashion column too?

Here's a sneak peek of what it'll look like:

Going for a fairly minimalist design with this.

Seriously though, still looking good. Very good.

Please don't be a grammar nazi. It's a layout and I don't really care whatsoever about the grammar on it. What I do care about is how it looks and how it's laid out. Just consider it a fictional city.

Zomg, go chimp.

The layout is great Nate, I really like it.

I'm just pointing out that the title and the subtitle are off/not aligned well.
And I think you should have a line down the middle between New/Article all the way to the bottom but not connected. Just a suggestion.

Naturally it's still a draft -- no harm meant. :D As said, the appearance is great.

Aye, its just an daft.

:D

Kamas ->> Do you mean the title and subtitle of the header ("YWS News: Citizen...")? I have those off-aligned on purpose just because centering it looked really weird.

Or do you mean with regards to the position of the header and the page as a whole?

On the line, I'll try that out. Thanks.
