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.

No, we need an actual designer.

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.

Please submit your graphical portfolio in the form of Miiverse drawings.

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.

Sounds awesome! I've sent an email in the event that you ever need an illustrator to provide some fun, Nintendo related imagery.

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