Where are we with Intermittens?

[Golden Applesauce]

Two quick questions:

1.) Where are we currently on Intermittens?  I know 1 and 2 have been released, and RWHN is finishing up on #3, and 5-8 are started and/or in progress.  But where on 5 through 8 are we?  What do they still need?  And what's already in them, so I don't repeat anyone else's work?

and

2.) How big are the pages going to be when printed?  I was thinking of putting together a cover or full page illustration, and size is important.

I think #5 still requires suitable articles.

[Cramulus]

page size is roughly 8.5" x 11".

Issue One is waiting on a few cosmetic updates (tear-outs, Pirate Passoff, etc, etc, for the back cover... and switching Rodger's Rant at the end to a different one) and then we may try for a Print Release of it.

[[BTW, if anyone would like to nominate a short rant of Rogers for the back inside cover, I can get those modifications finished.]]

Issue 02 is purring in blissful Idle Mode.

RWHN's sounds like he has his issue handled once he catches some free time to work on it.....

#'s 5 - 8 probably need quite a bit of content. At this point, I can offer my layout-consulting services to the Editors of 5 - 8. We can mock up some blank templates, and start thinking about how to layout the pieces you already have. I think Scribus would work best for this, as this would ensure we can all access and muck around with the layout [I did Issue 01 in the Adobe layout app, and the big limiting factor there was the fact that no-one could look at the layout file, and I had to render a PDF for every update].

Still quite stressed about school, ATM.. so anything past consulting will have to wait a bit.

I was thinking about writing an article on concocting fun, if anyone wants that.

intermittens.org is also up and running. Issues 1 and 2 are available in PDF format and once I get text versions of the articles, I will upload the rest of them to the searchable archives. The Article Submission works, it throws an error I haven't had time to track down, but the submission still works. I am in the middle of writing a WTF article to lay out how people can submit new articles etc. (in fact, they can select which Intermittens they want to submit to).

Anyone that is an Editor can create an account and we'll get them set up so they can review new submissions etc.

The site needs better graphics etc and I've only gotten feedback from a couple people... so more feedback would be great too.

Everyone on stumbleupon needs to go to intermittens.org, thumb it up, and tag it thoroughly.

Good point, consider it done.

I've got threads on how to submit to Intermittens: Operation Mindfuck (issue 7 or whatever it will be) and Ratatosk was good enough to put submission info on the http://intermittens.info site. I'm going to reword it/update it, but for now it's there.

As I've opened up submissions to various Discordian cabals/individuals, I've actually gotten quite a bit of good stuff, but still can use more.

That reminds me, I've been meaning to write up my experiences PosterGASMing my university.  Might as well write it up for publication.

Do it. Submit it. Our team of crack editors will analyze it, and decide what to do with it.
