Thanks Chris. I will keep working on it then.
I think I will delete the link to my draft then as I know that my writing deficiencies probably are glaring in that draft and I do not need to embarrass myself. 
Thanks again for the encouragement.

I'm plotting article 4 in my QOR series and I have a dilemma which amounts to should the article describe the library top down or bottom up.
In other words demos and usage first and then break down the details of how and why or theory and detailed design first building up to usage and demos at the end. Which would you as a developer prefer to read?
To give some context the Microsoft LOC counter calls it at 9833 lines, so a small library but it covers a lot of ground in terms of ideas and techniques. Some of the details are quite hairy but they may also be considered the interesting parts. PHDs have been awarded for less

My preference is always to be able to get up and running as soon as possible in order to see whather it suits what I need, and then I like to dig deeper. Starting with a broad overview and simple, specific starter cases keeps me engaged. Diving straight into the details means I lose sight of the forest for the trees.

Thanks Chris, your opinion as always outweighs a thousand others, especially when it's the only one.
It's working much better top down anyway so I might have this one done before Christmas.

Please see this http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ViewDownloads.aspx?aid=605568[^]
In browse code, I find a demo app called "Facebook Login Logout". My tip was about CSS and I clearly remember not to have uploaded any source code. But today when I went there back to add some stuff, I caught sight of this. This is completely unrelated to my article and how did that land up here... I'm out of ideas. And yes, editing set to "Admin Only".
Should I trash it?

If your article explains some new and useful features that are not in the existing one then I would say, yes give it a go. Once you publish it you will get some feedback on how well people like it.
Use the best guess

This is something not so strange, there are many articles based on previous ones
My first and only article is an extension of other article. I used the template there but I was missing some options, so I programed them and publish an article.
Important is:
- Give credit to the original author by telling it and posting a Link to the original / base article.
You can check mine if you want, it might give you an idea on what I am saying

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Hi,
I can see the dotted box (Firefox 22).
If you don't use Firefox 22, you should try to update.

My tip/trick was closed while I improve it. As part of the improvement, I wanted to add some screenshots. Unfortunately, I see the Add File button is now missing. Is this normal for closed articles, or should I take it to Bugs & Suggestions?

I don't see such a dotted box either.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nope, definitely missing for me.
|
|
|

Then you should report this in the Site Bugs & Suggestions Forum.

Hey i wanna to write some articles for codeproject but always rejected by codeprojects Please tell me what i have do for write a good article for codeproject

Writing a good article can be hard, but it is rewarding. First of all, take a look at articles by the likes of Sacha Barber[^], Marc Clifton[^] or Nish Sivakumar[^] to see examples of what good articles look like. Notice that they are all a good length, and that they explain what the problem is, show relevant parts of the code to show how they solved it and they explain their thinking as well. These authors don't just dump code and walk away. They explain things.
Having understandable English is important, as well, so the use of text speak is out, proper capitalisation and punctuation needs to be present. The good news is that there are people who will be willing to help you with your article. When you have written it, don't publish it. Instead, keep it at composing status and approach Sean Ewington (have a look on this forum for his posts, and click the email link on any of them to email him directly). Ask him if a mentor can help with your article, don't forget to give him a link to the article in question. Sean will ask the mentors, who are all experienced authors, and they will try to help.
