[Moo] Readers of The Bull: Feedback please!

[Nicole Spaun]

Greetings,

As many of you know, I've been doing most of the issues for The Bull since 
this spring.  I have tried several different formatting options and am still 
trying to find one that works consistently for the newsletter.  The 
difficulty lies in the variation of stuff that goes into The Bull: sometimes 
it's mostly event announcements, sometimes more court reports, other times 
all local news.

To make it easier to find what you want in The Bull, how do the following 
work for you (please write me offlist and rate the following):
-color coding the headings of articles?
-color coding the borders around articles?
-not placing more than one article per page?
-always placing articles in a certain order?
-any other ideas?

I've tried several of these in the November issue that will be coming out 
imminently.  Namely, each article heading is color coded: blue for general 
baronial or kingdom business, red for marshal activities, green for interest 
articles, purple for event announcements (and articles appear in this order 
in the newsletter, too).  I've also color coded the borders of the articles 
to match.  I do have several articles on the same page for space's sake, but 
only when they are the same type of article (blue, red, etc).  Does this 
help make The Bull easier to read?  Or am I just confusing the issue by 
throwing color at the problem?

ps: a Table of Contents is not an easy solution... please don't suggest one.
