In PU aren't much programmers. The only I know are:
  • Mr. Dark
  • Urmel
And I don't know how to make a flash newspaper...I will study more and it will take like 1 - 2 months.

I don't see what "making a newspaper" has to do with programming. (note: your AutoIt scripts != programming).

1. People write a column or article
2. Column or article is edited/spellchecked by another person
3. Final products are given to an editor who designs the newspaper (this can be done in Word, Photoshop, Illustrator, Powerpoint?, etc..)
4. Upload the newspaper to the forums
5. ? ? ?
6. Profit

I don't see programming anywhere in that process, or am I missing something?

Nope, you mentioned all what needs to be mentioned. Also a program that might help: Microsoft Office: Publisher.
It's ghost dammit, GHOST!

Yep.  As I said it's not too hard.  I just really don't have the time between school and work.

Ok, Meowth, try to show me the design of the newspaper example please.

(note: your AutoIt scripts != programming).
I wasn't talking about AutoIt.

Not against anyone but I don't think it would be a good idea....Mainly because that's another something that someone has to do every day and if not that at least every week. If there's someone that wants to do that go ahead by all means but, just saying your going to have to come up with a new topic every week, then your going to have to write about it.  Mr. Dark has a point with all the positions that will need to be filled too, you'll need reliable people that will be able to do that.....

I think every week would be too much. If you do an issue every month you have enough time to get subjects to write about and give everyone some time to write their stuff. You have to keep in mind that people will do this in their free time and RL stuff always takes priority. (The foremost reason why it takes so long for us to release a "playable" version of PU)

I agree a monthly issue would be manageable.  And as far as number 6 goes.  I don't care for profit.  It'd be fun.  I don't mind writing.

It would be a lot better if it was monthly and if you want to go ahead it would be cool to have a newspaper just think a lot of work.

Like it.
The newspaper should be monthly, because if we add them every week, what will you write??
Well the is the pre-release version of newspaper and it can be better.

Well, I know a Weekly wouldn't work, and a Daily might be too much to ask, so a Monthly might be best indeed.
