Default RE: Magazine Design / Layout / Art Director

I think the answer here is to create a new website specific to build projects and design along with ARF builds and flight tests. There are many people willing to help out with all parts of this.
Gather a dream team of people on here starting with web developer, graphic designer, build a list of article contributors.

Too many magazines come and go but develop a large group of followers to an online website that shares a variety of interests that keeps people coming back day after day and a money making website is born.

Everyone has a job to do and there is no startup costs accept domain and hosting which are cheap. Profit share to all involved, keep the number of people to a minimum to keep things simple.
Pull your own weight or your out.

If you have a product that everyone wants to see and you give it to them for free and keep things interesting then the people will flock. If you have the people numbers then advertisers will follow.

I would even take care of the marketing end of the site and get the advertisers.

Anyway this would take some planning and co operation but it could work if people agree to work together as a team.
No sense trying to find a job not knowing what can happen with it week to week when you can create a business that makes money forever.
