The Pirate Ship Headquarters

So, you have a pirate lens? One about Pirates, or ships, or movies, or lore? Then share it here with other scurvy lensmasters that think like you do. Aarrrr.

The Pirate Ship Headquarters Code...

So, what does it take to sail in The Squidoo Pirate Ship? First: It has to be about a pirate in some way, shape, or form. Second: It has to have some seriously good stuff in it. Make sure that you've put some care and thought into what you've created. The templates that you're given are great, but they're not enough. Generic headings on any modules will get you the plank. Third: Proof your lens. Check your spelling and grammar. If you don't put that kind of care into your page - your reader won't care either.

If you get rejected, you are free to invoke parlay to ask why and I'll work with you to get your lens in.
