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, it’d probably be acceptable for
BrickJournal too.
The cost for a 68-page magazine would be $14.73, if my math is right. That’s
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 don’t mind some discussion taking
place here on LUGNET too!
