How can I add an article to the website?First you have to have an account. If you don't have one yet, please register now.
Next you have to be granted the appropriate permissions. Please contact the Webmaster (Jay Everson) for permission.
Once all the formalities are taken care of, select "Add Content" from the main menu. Then enter a Title and select the appropriate Topic from the menu.
Lastly, enter a "lead-in" paragraph (a short summary) and then the rest of your information in the "Body Text" area.
The "lead-in" text appears on the "home page" and the remainder of the text appears once a user has selected the article for viewing. For short articles, the "Body Text" is not necessary; the complete text can reside in the "lead-in"
Once the article is submitted, a small group of "editors" are notifed. One of them will proof read the article and approve it for posting. Once it is "approved" it will appear on the website.

Can I add formatting to my article?Yes, some basic formatting is allowed. You use HTML "tags" for formatting. Each "tag" requires an "open" at the beginning of the text and a "close" at the end. "You can follow the examples below:
To center text you use the <center> tag:
<center>My Text</center>
To Bold text you use the <b> tag:
<b>
My Text</b>
For Italics you use the <i> tag:
<i>

You can combine (nest) tags such as:
