General Reminders
- Avoid black and white illustrations whenever possible.
- Do not use GW artwork or illustrations. From issue #2 and onward this is in effect. This is actually spelled out on their site. Also focus of webzine should be the minis.
- Do not use GW Logos with other companies products. Example is the cover of issue #2, another companies mini with a GW logo. This one has the biggest potential for raising GWs ire.
- Use of anyone’s artwork that is not a member of the site: permission needs to be granted prior. Submissions Coordinator to head up and have all permissions granted on file and organized by issue.

Add more as needed everyone.
