Submission Guidelines
| 1. | Ask yourself if the article you're submitting is really of interest to Submariners. This may seem like an obvious one, but we've had some strange submissions in the past. | |
| 2. | Check to see what articles are already on the site. If your idea is not already covered, then read on: | |
| a | Articles should be detailed but not overly technical in jargon. | |
| b | If your article requires images, they should be your original artwork or scanned from a personal photo. Saved as .jpg or .gif file format. Non-animated. No flash files and please zip them up. | |
| c | Plain text is the preferred format for submissions but if you wish to send us a MS Word document, that's okay too. Do Not send HTML. | |
| d | Please don't submit articles that have not
|
|
| e | Finally, remember that you are writing for the web, not for print, so be as clear and concise as possible. | |
| f | And finally (no, we mean it this time, really), bear in mind that the more you stick to these guidelines, the less we have to edit and re-work, and therefore the quicker your piece gets published. | |
| 3. | The Submariners Association (Barrow Branch) or I W Hillbeck shall not be liable for the content or any copyright infringement by another party; before submitting content that is not original work, ensure you have legal permission to submit the material. | |
