I agree, and even if you do that, it will probably not be color and almost certainly not on glossy 11x17 pages folded properly into a magazine format with binding along the edges....

Joe: What you might do is charge for the PDF when it’s new, but have it become free after the following month’s issue comes out, or something like that. (I assume you’re eventually planning to move to a regular monthly schedule? You can also make good money selling printed back issues of the ones that hitherto are only available in PDF format. Maybe a collector’s edition of the first X issues bound together in a book?

Charging for a PDF will be something that is a constant. I won’t be able to make it free. Sorry. Again, if an printed issue is charged, a PDF will have to be charged too.

Back issues are something I am interested in, but I need to have the resources to do those, so I will have to wait.

BrickJournal’s schedule will be quarterly for the next year. Depending on numbers and income, I will make a decision on ramping up and staffing up.

It all depends on the financial footing I end up having.

(...) Well I signed up. If that is the next step toward getting Brick Journal to print (and the back issues) it is $20 a year well spent. It can never be said too many times, thanks for all your hard work Joe. -Mike Petrucelli (17 years ago, 31-Jul-07, to lugnet.publish.brickjournal, FTX)
