Cool

Awesome! Can't wait to read the next issue!

Look forward to what you guys come up with. How many word are required for a review? Is This mini reviews or full blown page reviews?

What the main premise of this issue, if your able to say :)

Ooh, a contributor! :)

There's no real fixed length for reviews; a bit of variety is good, imo. Got a specific game in mind?

And there's no overall premise at this point. Lots of interesting things, though.

Things! Of interest! Lots!

Plus boobs. :cheese

Very very cool. Thanks for making it :bowdown

Just a question: Can I get it printed? Subscribed to a printed version?

More than happy to help where i can, even if its just spreading the word.

Nice. The original is back too just in time after the sad demise of Amigaville.

What software did you use to put this magazine together? What would be recommended for power, flexibility and ease of use?

We used QuarkXPress which is the desktop publishing software used to make paper magazines back in the day. InDesign seems to be more popular now.

There are no plans to publish a printed version but there is probably a website that will provides this service.

Thanks- yikes quark express is 1,000 euros. Indesign expects you to pay forever- not a chance.

Just stumbled across this thread and am downloading the back-copies :)

When is Issue 5 out? Did I miss it?? I checked the site, but I can't see a publication date.

WRT letters and content - I assume letters can be in any format (in other words 'email'), but what about other articles? Can we just send text and associated images, and then you guys do the page-setting? Or would you prefer a pre-formatted .pdf? I'm assuming the former, but thought I'd ask :)

Looking forward to the read..... :great

I write for APoV, and I usually send through my piece in Word format with some associated images that I think would look good in the finalised article. The APoV crew take the reigns from there in terms of layout and page-setting.

If you have an idea for an article, it is usually a good idea to make your intentions clear to Black Cornflake or Cody beforehand, so they know what to expect. You can do so on this forum or via email.

Hope this helps :)

I've been waiting for issue 5 since 14th June 2010.

Me too :) I love first issues, all reviews and articles.

Still working on issue 5?

Excited to read Issue 5! Is it still being worked on?

Can inexpensive Ads be purchased for inclusion in APoV?

Yeah, sorry about that. I've had a really bad Gimme a Break addiction. You know the one. Mid-80s MAME pool game. Dark places, man. Dark places. I'm clean now, though :)

And yes, fear not loyal readers - as of [glances at desktop clock] 26 April 2022, APoV 5 is still being worked on. Or has started being worked on. Stuff is happening. And, fuelled by 6 vitamins, iron and cocaine, I will blitz it!
