I took this picture of some lego tools, can I get some feedback on it? Is it any good? I'm not very talented when it comes to photography...

If not, should I just go with one of these https://unsplash.com/s/photos/toolbox?license=free ?

What are the size/format requirements?

Your picture looks good to me. The size needs to be 1890x800. The format needs to be JPEG. We usually overlay the title text, but I don't think that is a requirement. More information can be found here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-magazine/creating-an-image/

Thanks.

@viuser I've done some editing for readability and to simplify some sentences. I also added some section headers to break up the article a bit.

This would be a good time for you to review what I've done to make certain I have not made any misleading changes. Also please consider if the section headers make sense to you.

I would target publication for 13 May if you have time to review before that.

Please make any clarifications, additions, or corrections you think necessary.

Thank you.

Thanks @rlengland, for your edits, I guess it shows that I'm neither a native speaker nor a good writer :). Everything looks good to me. I made a single correction in the "Creating toolboxes" section, where it seemed a bit ambiguous when dnf runs.

From my point of view, please consider the article as done.
Thanks again, and have a nice weekend.

@viuser Your English was fine. What I did was edit to remove the "passive voice" as much as I could and to remove the You/our/yours/we constructs which is not normally used in "technical" writing in my experience.

It was well written. All I did was polish it a bit.

Scheduled for publication 0800 UTC 13 May

Thank you for contributing to the Fedora Magazine
