[PD]DotA Magazine

Original thread is [URL="http://www.playdota.com/forums/showthread.php?t=569240&highlight=magazine"]here[/URL], even though my idea has changed a lot since the beginning, the aim stayed basically the same. The picture above can be slightly misleading though, I'm not actually looking to make it a monthly magazine.

I'm talking about a Dota magazine, which cover many aspect of the game in general. This goes from news, interviews, high lights of guides, videos, art and recreation, along with recommended replays. There would also be a beginner corner, for learning and all that. The idea might sound messy at first, but I've basically got everything outlined. Although times are of the essence, I can push it out with decent quality during the summer. The problem, however, is that I have too little support at the moment. Site Feedback's post doesn't actually help because it's quite a deserted place, while DotA Chat is well, DotA chat, nothing more to it.

In case you are interested and can help, give me a pm here or at me on skype (LightRedemption) so we can have a talk. Remember, I'm pushing this out regardless, so the more people helping the better the project is going to be. I would still stay as head of course, but I'm always open to suggestions.

Current positions open:

*Editor
*Organiser
*Artist
*Grammar (nazi)

The magazine, when it does come out, wuold be hopefully have a certain position within the site and support from the mods (along with the target audience of course).[/COLOR]

    [COLOR="White"]It's official because it's the only one, but unofficial because we lack the mod's support atm so it's more or less just a community project right now[/COLOR]

    I would write some articles in a theoretical direction (explaining aspects of the game, competitive scene, etc.)

    I'm really interested in this project. I'm a decent enough writer, but I'm not sure what to do. How can I contribute?

    A grammar nazi and an editor is the same thing but if you need someone to write articles I can do it. Also I'm an artist so I can do comics but I haven't practiced in awhile so I dont know how good I'd be. but I support your idea for a dota magazine.
