The Indie Scene - Near Complete.
Right, please open the link below in Internet Explorer (ugh, I know) and position the window so it looks like this image:
These should be C3’s dimensions for showing the article.
Now, read, look and let me have it, BOTH OF YOU PLEASE. I want criticisms so that I can respond to justify or correct them. I’m talking style, both writing and image wise, the choice of images, amount of writing, whether parts bore you, etc., etc.. This isn’t the final version as I may have more info. to put in later and I’ve not posted it in the staff forum yet as I want criticism from my expert proofreaders - Vikki’s already had a look and likes it.
Seriously, let me have it.

hey just had a read of it. not bad, not bad at all.
Writing style - good as always. maybe its cause i can imagine you talking to me like that since i know yoooou.
Images - OK. even though I don’t know why you’ve put two Crossbeams Studio logos. which one is the official logo we will relate Crossbeams to?
Anything boring? - the Orb section? but that’s mainly because it’s what i’ve read/heard so far. To me it feels like you’re saying stuff that has been pretty much said in the news article.
and..is this profile about Orb or about Crossbeams? or both?
other than that it’s pretty good. and something you should be proud of.

Official logo - both of them, one’s their logo and one’s the banner from their website. Originally a team photo was going to go there, but it couldn’t be arranged in time as two of their lead designers went on an unexpected business trip
It may change by the time it goes up.
Orb bit - that’s the problem I see with it. I’m trying to get different info. to put in, but I think there’s still stuff in there that’s different from the news article.
The whole proposal was ‘mainly about the game, but we talk about the studio too’, so it’s a 75/25 split in favour of Orb.
Cheers guys.
I’m waiting for feedback from Greg and hopefully an exclusive news snippet or two, though I’m not holding my breath - if I don’t get it, I’ll be posting it in the staff forum tonight.

No sooner than I posted this, I got an email through from Greg Szemiot. He gave me a bit of exclusive info. about how the magic system should work, so I’ll put that in.
