I have been busy working on a new blog and want to submit the feed here. I am fairly certain I already know the answer but for the title am I supposed to put some title for my blog site??
My plan is to start writing on some iOS stuff as well as to continue my javascript stuff.
Thanks.
as if the facebook, twitter and message boards weren't enough - blogged

Put whatever title you feel is appropriate. The title of your blog is, to me, the most appropriate.
And it's not a silly question.

I figured that was the answer but then in my mind I thought... "it can't be that easy." 
you want something inspirational??

Let me know how we can put our article?

Here we can only share source code of any coding?

I'm not sure what you mean. This forum is for questions about writing or editing articles.
Use the best guess

Hi,
I've just updated one of my article to fix some formatting issues.
Moreover I'd like to have the embedded videos working; they are of two types:
- two from Youtube in the "MySQL Installation" and "PostgreSQL intallation" sections respectively (they are represented by raw "iframe" tags)
- three flash videos in the "Installation of SQLite Expert" section, represented by "kml_flashembed" tags
If you want to have an idea of what they look like in their original context please have a look at: http://pragmateek.com/using-an-access-mysql-postgresql-or-sqlite-database-from-vba/[^]
PS: don't be distracted by the strange "simple_slides" tags, this is another issue I'll have to fix by hand.
Thanks for your help

Hi Pragmateek,
I'd be happy to add the YouTube videos for you. Sadly, adding the flash videos are beyond the article editor's power.
Would it be OK for me to tweak the text so it reads OK without those flash videos?
Also, once I've added the YouTube videos you will be unable to edit the article in the future yourself, one of the CodeProject editors will have to do it for you.
Thanks,

Hi Sean,
thanks for your help.
Embedding the flash videos should be as simple as adding:
<embed width="600" height="480" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.sqliteexpert.com/tutorial_create_db.swf" quality="best">
Is it completely impossible?
Don't bother for tweaking the text, I'll find a way to make it readable.
But I'm more concerned about your last statement: though this article should not be updated too often I'd like to avoid disturbing an editor each time. 
So please don't lock it now
I'll come back to you when done with the other updates.
Thanks

Actually, if you provide it in that format, specifically, it may work
Please let me know when to proceed.

Nice try but even when directly modifying the HTML of the article the resulting code is escaped.
I'll warn you when I fix all the other issues like images (I've created another question for that).
Thanks.

I suspect one of the other editors got there before I did because there was some highly skilled CodeProject formatting going on in there. So I will gesture with my hands to the right, and let the responsible party take a bow:

Great. And I see it has been approved, so I will give it a read.

I just uploaded a new edition of an article (Secret Key Encryption Demo). Is not intended to be a new article (namely, a total or partial new explanation), but merely an addition of code.
I have never tried to edit an article here, so I don't know if what I did was alright.

In this case you should simply edit the existing article and add the new code.
I spent a bit of time tonight on your article getting the formatting right, especially the C#/VB code blocks (love multi-language samples!). Please let me know if it's OK.

First of all, sorry about taking your time, I got confused about the edition.
Right now, I'm working in an article about the same topic and I hope to finish it tomorrow or past tomorrow (I need some time to check my English with a friend of mine). To be fair with the original autor, I would like to edit all the article and combine both solutions, overwriting my initial post. What should I do? Should I mark the article as "Work in progress: don't publish" and then edit it?

Thanks very much for your inquiry. The newsletters look to an article's rating when deciding whether or not to include an article in the pool. Unfortunately your article did not have a high enough rating / enough votes.
Thanks,

Thank's for your answer! You are surely right with the "Most popular new articles" section, but
I refer to the "New articles added" section.
How can an article be rated, if "nobody" knows that there is a new article out there 
|
|
|
|
|
Actually yes, for the "New articles added" section too. New articles do get exposure elsewhere. For example, each new update or new article is displayed on the homepage for a period of time.
Still, I will discuss making the "new articles added" section more open with the team.
Thanks,

Sorry, but I can not follow your explanation about the necessary ratings for an article in the "New articles added" section:
This morning I read the newsletter and opened a very nice article within this section (Silverlight MVVM ...) - The article isn't rated at all (0 votes) and has a lot less views, downloads and bookmarks than mine...

I asked the dev team to double check the code. This article should not have been included. How as it included? Hard to say.

Hi all,
This is my debut on article writing on CP. I have sketched out a small one describing the usage and the points to keep in mind the usage of @font-face of CSS3, titled "Using custom fonts in your webpage by leveraging modern CSS3".
My question is, is this an article or a tip? And how should it be tagged?
Please help.
