Hey all,
just been reading through some of the last two issues of riptide (yes new one has just come out with the invert on cover).
Its quite crazy cause about 50% of the mag is just full of A4 adverts, thats not including the smaller adds either. Noticed that most of there mag content goes up as there wallpapers before it even hits the shelves, so last issue picked up seen almost all the shots already.
So what was left of it when it came to the shelves, full of adverts, pics ive seen on the download section. Hmmm not to sure if its just me but yes Riptide has got itself a sick name but somewhat just appears boring and doesnt appeal to be a sick mag anymore. Actually enjoying the sixty40 mag a million times more at the moment cause its just fresh unseen content and made really well... yes there are a few minor hickups here and there, but hey they are only 1 year old!!! So build up photo libraries, content etc will take time... but apart form that really stoked with it
would imagine one of the hardest parts about the sixty40 mag is getting sick content for it to make it happen...unfortunately we dont have many photogs shooting around SA at the moment but should hopefully pick up as time goes on...
cool back to work.
