| I totally understand. Blosom is right, every week someone has something great that they are going to accomplish. Then nothing ever happens. but it sounds cool, if you pull through.

| its print on demand guys, which means theres no printer fees and you can buy only a single copy if you want,i'll probably buy about 25 copies at 2.50 usd each thats only 62.50$ with shipping less than 80$ thats pretty cheap for printing, I have done a coloring book before with the same printers and it came out okay,no worries not a pipe dream, i have 2 pages done and about 8 others layed out,its really hard to do this kinda thing alone who wants to read a mag only written by one dude?
LOL guys i can do this no sweat, i'm not a kid and i have money, so it's no problems i just would need some input to fill the pages.
Yes Kerry anything you would want to contribute would be great, and unite will have an in it for sure |

| If you want, I could do some editing tutorials or filming stuff I guess. I'm not sure if you guys read these, but Transworld has tricktips in ther magazines, and you could kinda base it off of those, I guess, but not copying it. |

| Yeah steven i'm thinking written tutorials with pictures to illustrate, send it to me when you get something together I have a couple of tutorials all ready ,basically the same kinda stuff on my site, simple how to's with pictures IDK
EDIT: I don't think blosom is being negative btw, i think hes being realistic, The advice/criticism he gave me on my site changed the look completely and made it better,

| there are about 3 tutorials right now on customizing a tech deck, there are two pages with puzzles so anybody that wants to do a plain text , history/bio/interview/review/news just write something up and email it to me once the whole thing is worked out, it takes about two weeks to be printed and 10 days to be shipped,so if we get something together in the next week, we could maybe have them in hand by Christmas IDK |

| maybe you could have a bit of a 'collectors' bit in the mag, and people give you pictures of their setups and things?...but i dont know how the whole 'are we aloud to use these pics' works? also ill have a little think and see what i can bring to the table.......and im glad you see my advice as logical, not negative bobby |

| Blosom if you want i can send you a template and page number and you can do your own layout so far i'm just using all pictures i've taken myself so no copyright issues, I will include copyright wording in the final mag. generally you would do a photo release but on something this small scale, it's not something i'm gonna worry about |

| Is this going to be anything about the UK fingerboarding scene, or moreso just a worldwide thing? And either way, if you want me to do something for the magazine about unite, or something like that, I could. Sounds like this idea is actually coming together, I'm really intruiged. Keep at it. |

| I sort of have an idea for the name of the magazine... It was the name of my old fingerboard forum. "This Is Fingerboarding" Just thought it might go with the magazine considering the forum isn't there anymore + If I threw in a few quid towards the mag, possibly you could put a few Unite or Cyclone ads in the mag? |

| cover i have no idea, somebody take a shot at it Kerry you can be the uk's voice in the magazine I've actually wanted to do something like this for a while, so I'm pretty stoked about it,i think even if it winds up a one time thing and ghetto it will still be worth the effort. Zine page size Trim: 8x10.5" inches 20.3 centimeters x 26.7 centimeters ? IDK Metric not selling any ads for this, you have to contribute to get an ad NAME geez, maybe if everybody shoots out names, we'll take a pole at some point and pick one. i was thinking something simple for the name with a small header like I <3 FB World Wide Fingerboard Culture Magazine STEEZY Custom Fingerboard Culture IDK |

| "NAME geez, maybe if everybody shoots out names, we'll take a pole at some point and pick one" your name has been shot out there, let the people decide on a name, i don't care that much about the name if it has a name but no content we got nothing Jack i need you document in word pad and the pictures as separate jpeg attachments If you want to lay it out yourself you'll need a template,let me know |

| Sorry for the double post, but how about this for a test cover run// Obviously a beast of a picture in the background, and i'd change the colours round, and text if needed. |

| You not think the magazine should be called something more fingerboarding related? and heres guessing theres probably already a magazine called 'culture'? Otherwise, fucking amazing art as always thom And I'd love to do this, so, yea, I'll get thinking on what things I could contribute |
