it is on glossy paper and colour but the presentation seems lacking ...... cannot say what....maybe it's the page size?
how do I know that the size does not reflect the future size, and with little advertising there must be little revenue = few pages - and they are small pages.
the size is too small, most of the contents I have already read elsewhere, and several months ago.
I've missed the cut off of three mags and if not happy a refund but I would have been seeking that and
had this been my first issue it would be my last .
Sorry.

Like Woody I'd prefer to donate to the site running costs, fewer pictures but the technical info is better !!
I would echo Chris' comments - too small, in fact it nearly got thrown out with the junkmail!, and read most of it elsewhere (including the quarter of the mag dedicated to the new TT) but this may be due to the time it's taken to get this issue out - if it had been more timely, it might have been "news".

Very disappointed :(
Also intended as constructive criticism.

Did not notice any adverts from RS246, only forum advert I noticed was from S2 forum.

I can't see an rs246 ad.

I agree with ChrisG and CliveH and want to add a little:

I think we all want you to succeed. A new magazine is welcome, especially as we (by we I mean people on various forums contributing to TotalAudi threads) can influence the content by what we post.

It seems odd to me that you plead poverty within the pages of the magazine David. If I was a potential advertiser, sponsor, contributor or pretty much anything, I'd run a mile, perhaps some readers would not buy a second issue because of this too ? For me at least, you should be positive about what the magazine is and what you hope it will become.

I always thought you would struggle to get it established because of the size of the task. I subscribed half expecting to see only an issue or two, so I am past break even already !

Well done for getting this far :thumbs: and good luck with the next issue and beyond.


David
