They can find it through the search tools at right.

How do I create a great posting?
Remember the five W’s:
Who: Who is your story about? Your pet? Your kids? Your business? Don’t forget to include names and other relevant identifying information. Also, identify yourself, the writer. Include your name, occupation, title, where you live or work or any other information that would be relevant considering your topic.
What: What is the central focus of your story? Make sure you have a sentence or paragraph that really drives your point home.
When: When did this happen? If you’re letting us know about an upcoming event, don’t forget to tell us when it is – date and time.
Where: Give us specific locations, ideally an address.
Why: Why should someone read your story? What makes it unique and essential — or simply fun?

Pick a category. The categories are entertainment, pets, friends & family, tips & techniques, faith, travel, education, news, business, sound off, reviews, sports and milestones. Where does your contribution fit?
Show us. Attach a picture by clicking on the “attach images” button. You know that old adage: a picture tells a thousand words. Including a picture with your story adds a visual element and increases interest for viewers. Plus, it makes for a prettier page in our print edition. If you post a picture (or four), don’t forget to tell us who is in the picture, first and last names, where they’re from and about when the picture was taken.
Be concise. To get a story in the paper, you don’t have to write a novel. Plus, if you keep it short, there’s less of a chance that we’ll have to make some cuts to fit your story in the print edition.
Photos can tell the story. If you have great photos to share, but don’t want to write a whole story, just post them! Be sure to include the five W’s in the captions.
Make it interesting. Who says news has to be serious? If you’re writing about your child’s lemonade stand, and they said something hilarious to their first customer, include the quote!
Don’t worry if you’re a “good” writer or not. Just tell your story.
Get it in on time. If you really want to see your story in the next week’s print edition, be sure you get it to us a week in advance.
Stay a while. When you’re on YourHub.com, don’t forget you can start a blog, post free classifieds and check out other users’ personal profiles.

How do I take the best photos for YourHub.com?
Be there. Always try to get yourself in a prime position to take pictures at public gatherings — get as close as possible. Show up early if you can.
Show faces. YourHub.com is all about the people in the community, so be sure to show us faces in your pictures.
Get names. We need the names of people in your photos if you can get them. Any other information is helpful as well, such as location, dates, and event titles.
Go candid. Posing people is easy but doesn’t always make for the most exciting shot. Try to capture the action at hand.
Shoot lots. Film is cheap, but digital is cheaper. The more photos you have, the more likely one of them will be perfect for YourHub.com.
Keep it simple. When posting a digital image, use the original file size. Do not attempt to shrink or otherwise edit your photos — leave the Photoshop duties to us.
We’re flexible. Digital is the most convenient medium to work in, but we can use film, too. Scan images from prints or negatives before posting them, mail prints to us for scanning, or just call 303-954-5482 with any questions.

What size photos should I post to the Web site?
The original. It is best to leave the photo editing to us. There are no restrictions on the size of a digital photo that you can post to the site, but if an image is too small, we can’t run it in print. The ideal size for your images is 2 MB or 5x7 at 300dpi. That is the largest we will need. And we prefer JPEG files. If you have any questions about size or whether a picture can run in print, don’t hesitate to contact us at 303-954-5482.

How do I share my opinion about people, places or events in my community?
This is the place for you to share your opinion or reviews. Click on the "Stories" link at the top left part of this page. Then click on "Post a Story" below that link and "Sound Off" or "Reviews" in the category menu. If you have any trouble along the way, click on the for more information. Once you’ve added a story, it will be accessible to all YourHub.com visitors.

How do I add an event to my community’s calendar?
This is the place for you to add events to your community’s calendar. The events will be shared with all YourHub.com visitors – so make sure to give clear instructions about where and when events are held. Click on the "Events" link at the top left part of this page. Then, follow the step-by-step instructions. If you have any trouble along the way, click on the for more information. Once you’ve added an event, it will be accessible to all YourHub.com visitors. They can find it through the calendar on the community's homepage.

How do I start a blog?
Click on "Blogs" on that toolbar to the left of your community's Web site. From there, you can make new entries or go through other stuff you've blogged. We've got a huge list of categories to help you keep track of what you wrote, but don't get intimidated. You say you started a jai alai league in your basement? It might not fit perfectly in our categories, but that's just too cool a story to throw away. Pick the closest thing that fits. We've tried to make everything as simple as possible. Just type in your text, submit it, and you're set. If you're a little more tech savvy, play around with adding images or with your HTML to get into the guts of your blog. If you choose to flag what you've written as public, keep an eye out on the YourHub.com print editions every Thursday - you might be in the paper.

How are events considered for the print editions and the YourHub.com calendar that appears in Wal-Mart stores?
The weekly print section calendars list events that occur the Thursday of publication through the following Wednesday. Events should be posted online at least two weeks prior to the publication of the edition you'd like your event considered for. Events posted with photos are stronger candidates for being the featured event in the print section calendars. To be considered for the Wal-Mart calendar, which is displayed near the checkout lanes in 17 stores throughout the metro area, post your event online at least three weeks prior to when it occurs. Contact community journalist Charmaine Robledo at robledoc@yourhub.com or 303-954-2465 for the Wal-Mart calendar guidelines. YourHub.com cannot guarantee any event will be listed in the print sections or in Wal-Mart stores.

How do I find the blog, stories or events I created on YourHub.com?
You can access all of your content in one place. Click on ‘My Stuff’ at the top-left part of this page for your entries.

How do I edit my stories, events or blog?
You can make changes to anything you add to YourHub.com. To edit a story or event you have posted, click on ‘My Stuff’ at the top-left part of this page. Clicking on these will bring you to a listing of all stories and events you have posted. Scroll through your list to find the story or event you would like to edit and click the edit button to the left of the title. Once you’ve made your changes, press the update button and your edits will be applied.
