Just saying.. it's not that hard to make something nice. I made the following mock-up in about 15 minutes using Photoshop.

Disclaimer: No I'm not a designer nor super-pro with Photoshop. I could even have made this in Paint (excluding the glow of the title).

Looks awesome :D and Meowth's looked nice too, but I'd prefer it to be something more along these lines. :D

Question: How to change the pages?

b) Another idea: (Idea here)...

Thanks!

Well there's nothing wrong with boots, I mean "Next>> and <<Back Buttons. I also think we should have a Table of Contents on the left side, sort of like a Menu on a website which lets you jump to Articles quicker.

 Well, I don't like scrolling too much. And If the Newspaper turns out to be big with Nice lengthy articles... I wouldn't want to go to the bottom Article :D

Just a thought... I don't see why there is so much pressure on a good design. You can also just make  a topic for each newspaper issue. In a topic you can easily make different text sizes, add links, images, tables, colours, etc.

If this is about showing it in-game, that's not going to happen anytime soon, since we have a lot of more important stuff to finish first.

Since I suck and no one will give me advice, I don't want it anymore.

Note: I'm not quitting because it's to hard, or because I suck, I'm quoting because you guys made me mad, you don't like my first one, understandable, but then I put a lot of work into one, USING MY PWN WORK, and Mr_Dark makes some stupid design where all he did was use a bit of stolen art and color the newspaper blue...AND YOU LOVE THAT ONE?! What the hell?

Well, what it needs is some serious organization.  Laughing at someone's attempt to help is well, not helping.

What we need is someone to take the time and create a nice template for the paper.

I still like the idea of a monthly paper, with upcoming events, interviews, trainer help columns and so on.  Well what it needs is an official staff. (Not PU team official)  But, some decided people to work on a prototype.  One person do design that template, a few people to write a few mock articles, and maybe an editor.
