I got another idea.You could have it be about how much knex roller coasters have changed.I can see it now.In (whatever the year was) jogumpie changed the way people look at knex with Speed O Fear the worlds first tube support coaster.You could right an article about speed o fear right way tray could make one for steel venom if you want I could make one for ironman.It would be a great issue.

Hey I was just wondering, is this an online magazine??

[DJMK]

In (whatever the year was), jogumpie changed the way people look at knex with Speed O Fear, the world's first tube support coaster.

I think coastergeekrtc was one of the first.

^The PDF is hosted on Jogumpie's website.

Yes, CGRTC was the first, but he never posted pictures, and Gump really improved on the idea.

[MP thrill rides]

Shit my bad.Well you know what I mean.

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

Wow, the magazine turned out great! I am glad not all of the articles are on K'nex coasters, it makes is much more interesting now that there are articles on real coasters and parks. Jogumpie, my last name is actually Wille, my mom just didn't change her last name. Email addresses can be deceiving. No need to change it now, though, it's fine.

Wow, this is really amazing, and a great idea. Im definitely putting an article on Stealth in the next issue...

[reaperdoctor]

i have an idea for the european coaster in the next issue. how about megafobia at oakwood? it was voted as the best woodie in Britain and i think Europe as well.

also, it should have some articles on flat rides or unique rides. perhaps there could be an article on a coaster type in general e.g Vekoma flying etc.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Well, I think that for a 'new for 2009' section, we should have maybe a few such as Manta, Terminator, etc...

[Britfag]

^.. You're kidding, right?

I wrote the article, and I know it has both Manta + Terminator.. xD

^ Yeah, yeah. Thanks a lot for making me feel like a complete retard now, lol.
No, I wasn't kidding, just super-tired at 6:25 AM. And retarded. Wooooopsie me.

But really, Ill probably just enter something on Stealth then.

[Antinos]

No, the New for 2009 page was good, but it just wasn't complete enough. There are much more new editions than that.

[Britfag]

^ I agree entirely, but Steelspectrum pointed out that inperticular, Manta + Terminator were not amongst the coasters on the list, I just corrected him..

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ Actually, I completely forgot that there even was a list. That's why I felt so stupid...

The only thing that doesn't look cool are the pages themselves. I had to get out of the THIS IS SO COOL AWESOME, kinda rush to realize that the pages are white with pictures and letters on it!

Should change it to another color background, or make a nice background related to the coaster, like a star kinda background for a space-like coaster, a water like background for a coaster like Manta.

This would make the pictures blend in a lot better and make the looks quite a lot better.

[reaperdoctor]

i'm going to write an article about megafobis, if i can find some time.

[Jogumpie]

^^I was having some problems with InDesign, so I decided to use stuff from Word. The magazine's layout is based on the layout of my study's magazine.

[lazor 22]

I'll revise my KD review so it would better fit a magazine. I'll send it to you when I finish.

[NitroDude319]

When I finish wrath hopefully I can make an article about it.

[Maxlaam]

^^ The lay-out is good as it is, it just needs some more polishing. Try fiddling with it.
