$At the current rate of production of"the magazine, (one issue every two%months, one disk per issue) the three"disk subscription is equivalent to six months, whereas the six disk subscription means one year. The$magazine may become more frequent or%on more disks, but probably not for a!while. You can send your money in$either cash (pounds only, please) or if you are subscribing in the UK!only, by cheque. Although I can't%imagine that anybody needs to write a
cheque for eight pounds! Also, remember that the postal service"doesn't like coins rattling around"inside envelopes, so make sure you%tape 'em to the side of the envelope.# You should find that subscription"is pretty cheap. (
1.33 per issue !in England if you subscribe for a%year.) You'll have trouble getting it!anywhere cheaper. It's also fast,"with you receiving it a good week before I send it to PD librarys.!(This isn't a ploy to get you to %subscribe, it's just that subscribers
take priority.)
SUBMISSIONS
"Submissions to the magazine can be#articles on any subject you care to!mention, and even some you don't.#Your articles can comprise text in $standard ASCII format, with pictures#in IFF format. (AGA isn't currently supported by Magnetic Pages) Any$graphics that go on the same page as$text must be in hi-res non interlace$(640X256, I think) in either 8 or 16 colours. Pictures on a screen of
their own can be in any non-AGA#screen mode. The disk format can be#any Amiga format, such as OFS, FFS,
Directory Caching etc. or even#MS-DOS. Bear in mind picture format
if you draw pictures on a PC#(inferior though they are). No TIFF$GIFF SPIFF LIFF PIFF WIFF CLIFF ect."sound is also supported, in either$RAW or IFF, so the instructions say, although a RAW sample I threw at"magnetic pages played at the wrong%rate. MED modules are also supported. We can not guarantee return of!your disks, since I can't predict
how many responses we'll get.$Subscribers, however, will get their"disks returned with the next issue
they are sent.

%Remember that we'll also be running a"gallery (how original), so you can send your masterpieces into that$address as well. Oh, and no pictures
from two year olds of Sonic the$Hedgehog or Mario and especially not
Zool. And don't try and send in
pictures from a five year old#slideshow pretending that it's your"own work, like somebody did on Bad%Influence a while back. (I believe it"was from 17 Bit's slideshow either$disk one or two) And before you ask,$I only watch it to laugh at the kids$saying "I like this game 'cause it's!really good." and Violet Berlin's$lisp ("I haven't got a lithp."), but!most of all, Andy Cranes complete%obviousness that he hasn't got a damn clue what the smegging hell he's"talking about. Any other piece of !work though would be appreciated,$mainly because we can't draw (JAZ X #likes to think he can, but you only"have to look at the front cover to"realise that's a blatant lie), and!we'd like you to try to brighten
