This has been quite the experience! Restless nights, brainstorming during the day. Crunch time! It couldn't have been possible without my amazing staff! Check it out and give us feedback!

If you wish to write for the magazine, click on the "about us" page on the website for more information!
Edit: Maybe you could write some stuff about big creations... Functional or decorative
And also, why is the "What this Minecraft thing?" article almost at the end of
it? Shouldn't it be at the very beginning? Oh well, just my opinion
Yeah it probably should but we are still pioneering the style and organization of the magazine so it'll be some time before we have it just right :smile.gif:
Yes we do with to expand our sections and cover more topics. The only reason this issue is so... "small" is because it took alot of time to do all the other work. I created a forum, recruited and organized a team, decided on a style, created sections, organized the magazine, began writing and proofing, etc (the list goes on and on) for the first 10ish days! so we really did rock and roll for the past 2 weeks to get this out!
Would it be possible to make it available as a downloadable PDF file? It would be great to be able to take it with me to read at work, where I don't have online access.
It looks pretty impressive and I can't wait to read it all. Props to everyone that made this happen!
Yep! just click on the "download PDF" button on the top of the window when reading the magazine.

He means he was hoping it was in print, not an E-zine, but those are still cool too, but I'd pay for a good Minecraft Magazine too.
Really nice work, I really liked the design and layout of it, well done, but one question, it says on Page 6 a review of Painterly, yet all I see is a review of Invedit, did I miss something? :ohmy.gif:

That's hopefully what this leads to. The Raw files of this are magazine size and 300ppi so that means that they are ready for professional printing!
Ummm... You just noticed a gaping hole in the magazine.... how did that happen???

Nope. Can't find any such link. Either I'm going blind, or it's not there...
Ok the link is now below the magazine. But i'll just post it right here for you: click here to download
Just looks awesome :biggrin.gif:
you should present it to notch, i bet he likes it.
mayby you should make a rubric whit the most awesome creation of the month, in alpha and creative.

10/10!
That actually sounds like a great idea! honestly if you think your up to it, go to our staff forums and apply to become staff. You could head the "best creation of the month" section.
You're looking at the first issue :tongue.gif: We wouldn't want to do a story on just auto carts tho. We want to provide new information, or advanced guides as well. So if a auto-cart tutorial were to be done, we would also want a "advanced" auto mine cart tutorial as well. Or something like that =P

nooo i mean the mod "AutoCart". I saw you guys did a review on texture packs and I was wondering if you did it on the mod "AutoCart". I know everything about the mod and current bugs, issues, etc.

nah, i dont feel like writing for a magazine, but thanks for the invation. i actually live in belgium, wich is pretty much the other side of the world when your in america. and my time i can give is limited, but i just got one suggestion if you do put it in your magazine, look out for hell structures. there's gonna be a tidal wave of them.
i can do it. i take school online so i have all the time in the world.
