[QUOTE="shadzar, post: 5435122, member: 6667746"] I will go a step further even! Have the internal deadlines for say Bart Carroll to have an article a week. Do as many as you want in advance, but one is needed each week. This is a loose adaptation of the idea. Then you work on the fixing and all that. They you have a stack/folder/disk of articles ready and build the calendar AFTER the articles are ready, and then hand the articles over to the web team to put into digital format to be delivered on the date the calendar says. That way you aren't doing any last minute guessing if an article will be ready, but have the article ready even before you decide WHEN you are going to use it. I will bet the "article" for Fortune cards was made and ready well in advance of the date it was posted by the CMS for people to read. If it wasn't then they reaqlly need to do what I suggest below and get their collective butts in gear and learn what they are doing. No I would prefer people stop using trash like Silverlight to begin with. HTML and Javascript and PHP can do everything they need it to do without 2 gigs of printer spooling of a BITMAP, [B]BITMAP[/B], printing to a BITMAP without just saving the file to the computer is stupid! Don't even print to a BITMAP. Don't needlessly print text to an image. Printing text as text is a lot better for computers, people, and printers. There was no reason to use a. I expect them to get someone competent to use and work with a website, rather than trying to get people that build internal websites for companies to make a public front for them. But it seems they hired Randy Beuhler and his team back to continue screwing up with not understanding how simple it is to do things, and would rather get fancy rather than understand their stupid little artwork in no way shape or form is needed. They need to fire the entire web team for DDi and get people in that can program, and leave them alone to do it right. [/QUOTE]
