Folks,

A big thanks to Jeremy @ Forever Filthy – www.foreverfilthy.bigcartel.com –  Jeremy has knocked up.. and donated a few logos.. for use on the Magazine.. one of which I’ve used for the first Issue.. the others I’m saving for future Issues..!

To make it clear.. this mag.. will be a back to basics mag… styled to simplier times.. no fancy confused/clever layouts… or snappy talking here.. we don’t even give a shit about grammar or spell check.. who’s got the time..!?

A mag to promote and share the artists who build and own these beautiful machines.. and to inspire others to do the same.. plus… sneak in a whole lot of other info about the shit we love.. (ie: Events, Tatts, Tits, Media and other gear, etc, etc) !!

Here’s a sneak peak of the cover thus far..!

I’ll also be doing up another post soon.. to recognise and pay homage to all the great peoples who have contributed their time to this gritty, slapped together concept.. who have helped to get it this far.!

For that.. I’m very grateful..!!!

I’m aiming for a “February Release”.. but need to dig deeper (sell something, or live on noodles for few weeks) or try and raise some funds (about one and a half grand).. of money I don’t have.. to pay for the application/solution.. to get it online… FREE to all.. yes… you read right… “FREE”…!!

Fuck it.. let’s see how I go with that.. but if we are to continue past Issue #1.. then advertisers.. will be needed..!

Anyone with any good ideas.. on how to raise the funds to go towards getting Issue #1 online, would be truly appreciated..!

I’m sure your asking.. but what about a printed version.. yes folks.. I’d love to head in that direction.. but there’s a lot more involved here in Australia.. like all the Government constraints and requirements (ISSN’s, Barcodes, National & State Library Submission’s, etc,etc).. plus the cost of printing.. so there’s more money needed to be raised.. before we can even think of heading in that direction.. but.. it’s a good possibility.. if the zine is received well.. by you the people..!!!

Feedback will be the key..!
