I think I want to start a small BNB monthly magazine, maybe featuring some of the highlight events coverage of the month, a Ride of the Month photoshoot and specs, and some community happenings. And the best part of all. AD-SPACE! ?????? Profit. Everyone wins! I'm aware it's probably being done already by someone somewhere, but who cares, it's all in good fun.
Name will be SMR Gazette (or SMR Autotrend if that seems to catch on better).
I will be selling adspace and even making swf advertisements free for adspacers - since this will be web-app-based.
All custom graphics will be made via my real life graphics commission shop Moonstruck Graphics (c).

Anyone be interested in doing something like this? Writer, Mag Photographer, Publisher, anything's game.

I know of 3 mags that either never made the first issue, or haven't got passed the first issue.

Also, since honestly I can just do this alone since it's only twelve times a year. The debut issue will be twice as long, feature FREE advertisement space and cover March and April's RotM as well as some community shops and community events. Ya'll all need some love too.

I mean if you can keep it updated and actually do it every month I guess it would be a cool thing.

Sure I guess, you should put up an actual topic up for the Mag though....

It will stick for as long as I stick, trust me. The most you have to worry about is delays or possibly a skipped month, if no one volunteers and it's just me doing the writing/editing.

Also please if you are only going to reiterate how other magazines or blogs failed in the past with all due respect find another thread to be a part of. This is a doubter-free zone! Don't kill the buzz...

Again, that's what they all say, but it takes a lot of work to keep a magazine. A lot of people say they are going to do the next big thing, but it really does take a lot of work to do. I didn't realize just how hard I'd have to work just to get the livestreaming I do average, or even my youtube channel. I don't do this for money, fame or interwebz. I do this because I love to do it, and if you just like it, it'll fail. Trust me. You have to be there for a right reasons. Don't simply say your going to make a magazine, but make leaps and bounds to make sure it's good quality, and you keep it up. Don't settle for less than perfect, and if you can keep it going, then good on you. But like I said, don't do this kinda thing for the wrong reasons. You'll be wasting a lot of peoples time.

I am doing it because I have a passion to do it. Luckily I also have a secret method of making them that shaves a lot of time. Also, am a web designer by profession. Thanks for the pointers though.
