Oops, sorry about that. All the guidelines we have are here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Marketing/Magazine2013
Essentially: "Each article should be 2 to 8 printed pages, each page
should expect to have have 2500 characters and 2 screen shots/images."
2500 characters ends up being about 500 words, so the article should
be at least 1000 words.
Screenshots are great, just make sure they are done with a pristine
desktop (default theme, background, etc). If you aren't able to do
this, just leave a comment in the text of the article saying you need
someone to make the screenshot and I'll take care of it when I do the
screenshots for my own articles.
Looks like the etherpad is still down :( hopefully it'll come back by
tomorrow...
