'allo!
The graphics (logos and the album cover I put on the back of the thing) look like crap again.
Luckily, the text is MAGNIFICENT!
But I found out the issue with the pictures... going to Kinkos self serve is more expensive (but convenient if I finish up at 3am and don't want to travel, heh), but the copies come out much cleaner.
Going to OfficeMax is cheaper, I have to travel a little more (oh boo hoo, right?), and the big mondo copier just spits em out a bit more messy-like. Hmm.
I'll be seeing if there's a way around that problem for next issue for sure, but now that I know it's the reproduction at that end and not anything I'm doing with my 'master copy' output, I can try to work with it.
Anyway, this issue was mailed out a couple days back, and contains a Summer Dying interview that runs about three and a half pages, lots of ripping on stupid black metal bands, some ripping on bad power metal, some good albums reviewed too, Roman Temin's debut column and it's not a "hello, it's me!" thing, and what just may be the first review worldwide of the upcoming Immolation album... I don't even know that the promos have been pressed yet so if that's the case, hopefully the label will be a bit surprised. A fun issue, overall.
