Bringing back the Best of the Past
In an effort to re-introduce an important part of the HOLF gaming experience, NWOl-3 is attempting to make it easier for players to publish nation-team based newspapers to allow a public forum for players in their game personas to further "get out" their message, point of view, or propaganda. This component of HOLF gaming once played a major part in the experience and even was known to have an impact on game events - http://www.holf.org/warcollege2009/archives/NWOLnews-NWOL1/index.htm
However, the old venues of player-produced web sites and publications has become somewhat difficult because of limited access to the server. For NWOL-3, it is the intent to bypass all the server security protocols by offering all player teams access to the NWOL-3 Player Newspaper forum where publication of articles is as simple as posting to the Guild web site.
Below is a summary of the HTML codes that are recognized by the web site software. Players can post their own newspapers by going to the Forum create screen (http://www.holf.org/guild/drupal1/forum) , selecting "Post a new Forum topic",
test 1 and enetering your articles and stories. Graphics can be inserted into the text to enhance your message by clicking the "add image" link below the composition window.
Please view the codes below and try your hand. If you wish additional help, contact the NWOL GA at nwol3@holf.org
