Sorry I am so noob at this...
Last time i had anything on the front page was a simple, E-mail a word file and zip full of pics to Ed.
Just read eobard thread and Matt was saying I just need to move it over.
Yet I can't seem to figure out were the option is. I see move to Trash and Submit for review. Thats about it for moving objects.
So if someone could do that or let me know how, thanks.
Also, If you want to read "Building a pfSense Firewall" please and give me any feed back.

Hit the Submit for review button... this is normally done after it has been looked at by the CE or someone, but it really doesnt matter. ;)

What, that doesn't make sense. That exactly what the initial instructions say not to do.

Workflow:
Save your article as a draft. Do not click on the "Submit for Review" button. When its complete, notify a content editor (CE) that your article is ready for proofreading/editting. The CE will work on the article, and "submit for review" when done which notifies the lead editors it's ready to be published. The lead editors will confirm the formatting is correct and provide any feedback necessary, then schedule publishing.
These instructions are exactly like I just mentioned...just more detailed, LOL! The problem is there are very few active CE's to do the checking and move it forward. If you have an active CE for the subject of your article, let that person know its done via post in their section and PM and they will do it. Since you dont seem to have an active CE, and assuming someone has proofread and checked the content, press the SUBMIT FOR REVIEW button anyway and the editing team will check it out. ;)
If nobody has looked it over, post an editorial comment that it needs proofread/content checked and someone will move it over after they had a chance to look at it.
One very simple way to do this is to look for the Notification Subscriptions box. If you don't see it on the "Edit Post" page, click "screen options" at the top and make sure the checkbox next to it is marked. And check "Editorial Comments" sorry forgot to put a red box around that.

then scroll down and place a check next to Content Editors, Lead Editors, and Proof Readers.

Then leave an Editorial Comment and it will automatically email all of the people in those groups, notifying them about your comment and that you want your article checked.
