A bit of poking-about turned up a print-on-demand service that might fit the
bill: lulu.com. These guys are reportedly very easy to
use -- it takes just a few minutes to upload your document, and then you (or
your readers) can immediately start ordering copies.
I found them mentioned in a review that
has mostly dire warnings about print-on-demand services, but good things to
say about lulu. And apparently, this is the service used by
JPG Magazine, which (like BrickJournal) obviously
contains a lot of photos. So if the quality came out acceptable for that,
itd probably be acceptable for BrickJournal too.
The cost for a 68-page magazine would be $14.73, if my math is right. Thats
more than an arm, but less than an arm and a leg. Too much for a long-term
solution, but it could be good enough for starting out -- people who really
want a printed copy would at least have a way to get one.
What do you say, Joe?
Best,

P.S. I tried to post in the forum at legofan.org, but it the thread there had
no Reply button that I could see, only a Lock icon that did nothing
(including explaining itself) when clicked. I hope you dont mind some
discussion taking place here on LUGNET too!

Patience, young padawan:-)! The staff of BrickJournal is busy looking at
options to print the magazine, and we will be keeping everyone informed of our
progress! Joe

PS. I opened a topic in legofan.org, so you can discuss there and here! I dont
mind:-)
