Another new feature for the CBn front page. :) The After Action Reports are a place to add external reviews of Bond movies, books, and whatever. Obviously, this was put in preparation for the release of Casino Royale, but it can be used for any Bond related review.

After Action Reports are very similar to submitting QuickNews items. Just start a new topic in the new After Action Reports forum.

In the ‘Topic Title’ field put the reviews headline or if it is very generic pick a short quote from the review. Make sure it is obvious what is being reviewed (Add the name of what is being reviewed if necessary.)

In the ‘Topic Desription’ put the source of the review such as ‘Ain't It Cool News’ or ‘The Sunday Times’ and after that, if one is given, put the films rating. You can use some of the smilies for the film ratings – the stars and the ‘Thumbs Up’ and ’Thumbs Down’ smilies. If a grade is given surround it with bold tags. Example:[b]B+[/b] (all of the smiles that you can use are shown above when you post.)

Then alone in the body of the topic put the URL of the review.

After they are approved by a CBn team member the reviews will be shown randomly on CBn’s front page where you can click them and go directly to the review.
