Guidelines
T
he single rule for an
article is that it must
somehow be linked to
Ubuntu or one of the
many derivatives of Ubuntu
(Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, etc).
Rules
• There is no word limit for articles,
but be advised that long articles
may be split across several issues.
• For advice, please refer to the
Official Full Circle Style Gu i d e :
http://url.fullcirclemagazine.org/7
5d471
• Write your article in whichever
software you choose, I would
recommend LibreOffice, but most
importantly - PLEASE SPELL AND
GRAMMAR CHECK IT!
• In your article, please indicate
where you would like a particular
image to be placed by indicating
the image name in a new
paragraph or by embedding the
image in the ODT (Open Office)
document.
• Images should be JPG, no wider
than 800 pixels, and use low
compression.
• Do not use tables or any type of
bold or formatting.
If you are writing a review,
please follow these guidelines :
When you are ready to submit
your article please email it to:
articles@fullcirclemagazine.org

REVIEW S
Games/Applications
When reviewing games/applications please state clearly:
• title of the game
• who makes the game
• is it free, or a paid download?
• where to get it from (give download/homepage URL)
• is it Linux native, or did you use Wine?
• your marks out of five
• a summary with positive and negative points
Hardware
When reviewing hardware please state clearly:
• make and model of the hardware
• what category would you put this hardware into?
• any glitches that you may have had while using the hardware?
• easy to get the hardware working in Linux?
• did you have to use Windows drivers?
• marks out of five
• a summary with positive and negative points
You don't need to be an expert to write an
article - write about the game s , applications
and hardware that you use every day.
