Idea: Just Commodore Magazine

[mickey]

do it as an online subscription....?????

That could work, but would take much volunteering as its not like there is any money to be made off it. Any reporters in our midst?

yes it sounds like a good idea, but i think with the magz that are already out i think
these would be legal issues due to copyright, like (Street Commodores) taking us to court saying we had that in are mag last month..

i'm all for a mag/newsletter for the members maybe go around to some small business and see if they will input some discounts if we promote them on the site. but the only thing is if we put discounts on the newsletter it must be usable for all members IE someone in WA does'nt want a discount from a shop in TAS or QLD...
etc etc

a online newsletter would be good members just have to sign up for it
as i dont think some of as wish to pay for postage cost to receive a newsletter

Definately online! Much easier, no costs, easier to get it out etc.

Alot of it could be things like, how to put cai on your vn. Step by step with pictures. And then the week after its released, have it on the site or something.

Its going to take alot of someones effort.

well if some of us make the inputs to the online newsletter/mag and then someone just has to put all the input together into a format/ layout they they like

 

[Robbie]

That's it.

As long as people keep posting how to's and the like it will be a lot easier.

Cheers,

Hey I'll be in that. I work sometimes (when I feel like doing extra work) writing dance music articles mainly, also layout and design and lots of editing and proof reading for a local paper here in Ipswich. It has a circulation of about 25,000 and readership is around 50,000 people.

I can do some layout and design and PDF the results. Online would be the way to go, a small forum just cant compete with a nationwide magazine, it's too well established. I'm certain if we could get some good content, a bigger forum would would be produced. Certain.

things that i think should be in the online newsletter/mag

1) How to ?
2) Members Car of the month (maybe have about 5 cars per month)
3) JustCommodres.com Stats
4) Site of the Month
5) Upcomming Events (ie Summernats, Motorvation, Drag Comps, Cruise')
6) Sponsership of somesort

anyone else have an idea

 

[Robbie]

I think that's pretty good.. but we may rin out of members cars very quickly.. maybe som "player profiles" of our lovely admin team

Cheers,

Robbie
