New Black and White Photography Magazine

[Flotsam]

The analog/digi portion of this thread is a complete yawn

That's because the responses tend to be either "Great! Looking forward to the first issue." or "If it is mostly about inkjet printing, that isn't my particular interest but best of luck anyway."

Ho Hum

Not excactly a barn burner of an A vs. D bruhaha. Thankfully.

Actually, it was a yawn because as far as I could tell the mag is about neither analog or digital processes, in fact it's not really much about process in any way. But somehow people had to go looking for trouble, in a zealot-like manner reminiscent of a narrow comment I once heard about a prominent Japanese artist: that he was "interesting, for a non-Christian."

Some folks just can't seem to see beyond their own fence.

But I have such a nice fence.

Somebody posts an invitation to view a sample of a magazine called "Inked". A casual glance at the sample issue shows Photoshop screen captures illustrating digital techniques. It doesn't take a trouble-seeking zealot to notice that the magazine will be devoted, in some portion to digital process. Is it another Digital/Analog magazine or a Digital/Hybrid magazine"? Beats me, but my interest lies more in the analog direction.

I don't know if the publisher is Christian. Come to think of it, it never occurred to me to care.

All the best to you. I like what I see so far and hope to get my hands on a copy soonest.

Hey, thanks. Sorry I haven't checked the forum in a bit, been so busy with everything to do with Inked. We're launching somewhere in between March 23rd and April 15, so keep your eyes out!

I'd like to invite all of the subscribers to this group and site to sign up for a free newsletter from inkedmagazine.com. While I'm currently trying to start a sponsorship program for APUG.ORG, I don't want to break any forum rules by advertising Inked.

I perused through the website and the magazine might have potential. I think its better to take a wait and see attitude rather than burning down the barn. There are never enough good magazines about Photography. The good ones always seem to come and go. Of course we could chase this one away and we would still have 10,000 versions of Photoshop Photography Magazine! Now that's really interesting. How many of you actually subscribe to Photo-techniques or Lenswork? Someone here should set up a poll. I'd like to subscribe to the English B+W Mag. but can't afford it right now; and I need to subscribe to Lenswork although I've been buying it on and off the newstand.
It's my feeling that if the winers stopped crying long enough to put their money where their mouth is than we might see better product out there.
