(Editorial)
[size 4, Font: Georgia] OK here we go, First of all I had to add a line of space above so that the content does not start too close to the content above. This is the header paragraph (very important) use this space to give a good introduction to the article.
Now that you have written your opening header paragraph you can start writing your article. It's always good to use paragraphs, it's also very good practice to include links to other sites, things of interest. Links help break the reading a bit, and give users relevant info that might not be included in your article. Try using as much as possible.
DO NOT use any of the other fonts in the list unless you have to (default font: Arial), when no font is selected, the defualt font is used, as is the case for the main text (this text).
If you need to use bold, to highlight important words, don't be shy...
"you can also use Georgia font for quotations if you like", actually please do use Georgia for quotations.
NEVER EVER publish an article in order to preview it on the site. There is a maginfying glass next to the article inside the list view, use this to preview your article after you have saved it.
You should also try posting images when relevant, again this is good in order to break up the text a little and keep the user interested. Paragraph after paragraph of text with no formatting will just TURN OFF user, you have done this often in the past, I don't want you or your editorial team to make the same mistakes again.
When posting an image using the image tool, you are able to insert a direct link of a picture hosted elsewhere without having to upload to server, you will need to specify height and width, as well as border style, and of course you will need to define whether image is floated left or right, KEEP IT FLOATED RIGHT ALWAYS.
