thx mate - also some good ideas there..Originally posted by Darkware
I think the price is fine for what you will be getting. You can count me in. Have you thought about hooking up with those companies that hand out magazine offers to school kids who then turn around to sell them to everyone under the sun? That would be a good way to get your magazine out to the public and let them know about it. Also, I would be willing to place an advertisement on Darkware3d.com if you want. Not that many people go there, but hey you might get some customers. Basically though, if you're wanting to sell 5,000 copies, you seriously need to figure out a way to advertise or something.
At this stage we are still planning what would be involved and getting average costs of such a project. I see the rep tomorrow as we are meeting for dinner.
So I will know more then.
What is good for us is the fact that we have a large userbase.. sure people come and go but we have a good mailing list that hits around 25,000 people.
Plus simplyphotoshop goes up now so that userbase I image will grow fairly quick.
I know other areas need to be looked at but we are at a good start - plus we wont have a time limit to start, I would like to say every 3 months but if it takes 4 months to meet our costs then this will be the way forward.
I am passed the time of huge bank loans to cover projects, hell I am just clearing of loans from a few bad decisions I made a few years ago... but I really do think that this is a great idea and one that I am going to push forward
