Are you a budding web designer or artist as passionate about games as we are? Are you interested in making sure Nintendo World Report continues to be the authoritative independent Nintendo-based website for credible, honest coverage for all things Nintendo?

Well that's not very dope. Or fresh!
If you shall force your righteous perspective upon others, which in turn requires an effort to understand, would you do the same? Or presumptuously reject theirs to begin with...?

..Which requires no effort on your part.

What else could you say in a complicated world..

You can reach out to the same e-mail if you want to, but any writing positions will be on the backburner for a while. Wow us and we might expedite the process, but I can tell you we're likely not considering thinking about bringing on any new writers until mid-August at the earliest.

Just throw'n it out there...
 
When I right click on links from the main page, I can't select, "Open in New Tab." It's as if I'm right clicking the background instead of the link. Aslo, I get a message every time a view a page that isn't the main page, "This page is accessing information that is not under its control. This poses a security risk. Do you want to continue?"
 
Perhaps the new design can address these issues.

Sounds like there is something wrong with your browser, or maybe you have malware.

I sent something pretty good IMHO, but I forgot to add the extra graphics, so if you get something from mazxty(at)gmail(dot)com, I apologize if it's missing a few pictures, I can send a sample few samples if you guys will allow.


I await your response,

PS- I sent a few extras here if you want to see below.

It's a work PC that blocks much stuff, but NWR is the only site that experiences those specific problems.
