Booking FrontPage time
For those modifications wishing to book some Front Page time, please either post your announcement in this forum as per the details specified below or alternatively PM jimkatalanos with the announcement (already formatted by you in the way it should be posted - we will not do this for you)
How it works
Mod leaders/PR create a dummy announcement thread in this forum and request a release time (members can only see their own threads in this forum). Administrators and those with permission to post FP announcements will be checking the forum and posting the actual announcements in the appropriate order.
1. Those booking a specific date receive first crack on that day.
2. Everything is otherwise resolved on a first-come, first-serve basis.
3. Every announcement gets 8 hours on the FP undisturbed.

Creating and Scheduling an announcement
The title of your thread should follow this format:

Announcement Title [Scheduled earliest release time]

Example: Rome Total War 1.0 Released! [June 4th (x pm GMT)]

When you want your announcement to be posted at the first opportunity, mark it with [ASAP] instead of a release time. Threads without the 'scheduled release time field' will be considered WIP and not be posted.

Formatting the announcement
Please post all FP announcements in this forum in their own thread exactly like they should appear. This includes all graphics, title, and formatting. In an effort to streamline the appearance of the FP, all announcements are to follow a specific format, detailed below.

The template that must be used is the following:

Paragraph of text describing the announcement, under 800 characters.

Please remember that announcements are not meant to provide the full details of your release, simply enough to get people's attention and make them click the link, so do not use multiple or huge images or huge paragraphs.

Announcements that do not follow the format specified above will be edited to the extent possible in order to comply with it, so please do follow the template provided.
