Help Out

There are always things to do with the site, and I'm welcome for any help I can get! Take a look at the list of things to do below, and feel free to help out if you can.

Content
If you've got an article you want to put up on the site, please do! Every member account can post articles to the moderation queue to be approved and posted on the site.
However, please don't just copy articles from other sites. Anything you submit must be your own work, and will be licensed under the licence shown at the bottom of each page.
Questions/Requests
If you have any questions about Linux you want answered, any advice you want, a request for a step-by-step tutorial or anything like that, please submit it. If you provide us with ideas then we can all make sure the content of the site is exactly what you want.
Theme
At the moment the site uses the default Drupal theme (Garland). It's nice enough, however, it would be nice to have our own theme unique to the site.
If you have any ideas then feel free to submit them to me and I'll take a look. The site is powered by the latest stable version of Drupal, and is updated as new versions are released.
Publicity
I'm doing this on my own on a budget which can only be described as "shoestring". I therefore can't afford advertising or anything like that. Any support you guys can provide by directing people here and letting them know about the site would be great. More members means more great content gets submitted, so we all benefit.
Donations and Advertising
At the moment I get hosting for free from the guys at Trap17 and it has served me well over the last few years. All I have had to spend money on is the domain name. Therefore it doesn't seem right to place advertising on the site or ask for donations. However, I cannot promise this situation won't change if this site becomes more popular (which I hope it will) and funds are needed to pay for things like bandwidth. Of course, the community is important to me, and you would all get your say on any major changes like that.
