here is the link where my effort can be downloaded. I need some ideas on
a name and logo for the cover. I've written one article just to give a
feel so far the blank page will be editorial contents and info. I've
setup various page templates for layout just need to get some sort of
style guide for others to write articles.
Go to megaupload using the link above download the pdf let me know your
sugggestions through this list for now.
Just one immediate thought on the design: The colour bleed on pages 2
and 3 looks good but anyone who prints pages from the PDF might find
their printer cuts off some of the "How To :: Address Envelopes" title
at the top of page 3 and the page number box at the bottom of both
pages. Increasing the space between the words (making the blue box
taller) and the edge of the paper would help with this potential
problem. Though I suppose a lot of people have PDF readers that can
shrink pages a bit when printing them (especially to fit A4 pages like
this PDF onto US-letter paper).
Sorry, I don't have any ideas for name and cover logo at the moment.
It might be worth mentioning your plans on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list
and/or the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list, as there are some very talented people
there. Also, it seems to me that a magazine like this is (or could be)
as much a marketing effort as a documentation effort.
Do you have someone lined up to review and copyedit the articles? If
not, I hope some of the many people on this list who have said they
are experienced copyeditors will step up and volunteer.

Some good points you raise. This is still a learning process for me and
it is good to get feedback from others as there are things I don't think
about because my focus maybe on another area as I'm still learning
Scribus. For Instance I forgot to embed the fonts but, with someone to
review material these small problems will work themselfs out.
