I am a simple man. I see an excuse to post Bea, and I upload an image.

>Magazine Release Post 2 of 2

>Physical Printing
I'll say it right up front, the magazine is designed as a physical product, and I think it looks nicer in hand than on screen. The digital edition is essentially the same product, that much is true, of course. But, I think there is something special to be said for having the magazine in hand and being able to flip through it. IF you want to print a physical copy for yourself using one of the two publishers that I used, please read this carefully.
The two publishers are Blurb and Mixam. To date, we have only received the Blurb copies. I would rate the quality as very nice, but the Blurb edition will have some pages where text runs close to the inside spine (about 7 pages or so). It's readable, but you have to stretch it out a bit. These margins are supposed to be fixed in the Mixam edition. However, I'm not sure which will feel higher quality overall, and Blurb is more convienent to use. My advice is either to print with Blurb now, or to wait for my advice on Mixam (hopefully before January 10th). You should NOT print with Mixam until I have received the copies and can validate their quality, so if you want to go this route please wait. In summary, pros and cons:

>Blurb
Will print, ship, and deliver faster, and you do not need to do anything yourself other than checkout here (link below). I think there are coupon codes readily available for this site, so feel free to search for them on your own before buying. These are going to be identical to the two copies that Beatani just picked up from the PO Box. I think I read somewhere that this link eventually expires, so if I need to refresh it at any point, just give me a shout.

>Mixam
The margins should be fixed and it may be slightly higher quality (it is like $5 more expensive per copy). I will not be able to provide you a link to buy, similar to the Blurb list. You would need to make your own account on Mixam, upload the assets in the Mixam, and create a new project. There is a separate folder on the Google drive to use if you want to go this route. I used the following printing options in my Mixam project: Satin paper, satin cover paper, matte lamination cover, 80 lb. text paper, 100 lb. cover paper. These may or may not be the best options, and it's probably also a bit subjective. I'll post something about these copies when I receive them, in case anyone decides to wait.

>Financial Assistance
If there are people who have submitted full page articles, would really like to own the physical copy, AND cannot afford to purchase the magazine, please feel free to reach out to me directly by email. You MUST meet all of these criteria without exception. I'm not sure how many people this applies to, so we will work out the details and logistics case by case. This offer to pay is actually coming from another dad. Please, PLEASE, do not try to take advantage of this offer. For starters, we only have a set and modest budget for this. If you can afford it yourself, please leave this offer only for those who truly cannot. If this is something you are interested in, I'd appreciate the e-mail ASAP.

>Contact
You can always get my attention on the thread if you need me. Additionally, for now, I'll continue to monitor the WhoIsYouMagazine*Gmail in case anyone has any questions, or wants to inquire about the financial assistance.

>Magazine Dedicated Thread
https://clover.club/forum/yah/res/111.html
I will cross post the final update here for easy access. But I will not continue to regularly monitor the thread.

>Magazine
If you missed the update over the weekend, I posted >>13024304 . Based on the feedback, it's safe to say I'm printing only for Bea. Nothing else really changes.
>Summary
>Changed
Editors, cover page art, printing for other dads
>Not changed
Delivery schedule, printing for Bea

>Magazine

There's really no easy way to say this, so let's get right to it. It's a bit of a long post and I hated typing it. Let me say in advance I do not want to cause any drama and I will continue to try to avoid troublesome topics as much as possible. But it is my responsibility to provide clarity and answer any questions as best as I can. I've been prepared for any type of contingency since the start, and this is just one of them.

Unfortunately, the editor cannot be relied on to complete the project within the timeframe. Honestly, at this point I'm not sure he can be relied on at all. There was a period of a few days when no work got done on the magazine. I really don't want to point fingers, we just have different priorities. My priority is to deliver to you the project that we agreed on in a reasonable amount of time. I've done everything I can to remedy this situation before it came to this, but at this point I think we need to cut our losses and move on.

>What actually changes is mostly in regards to physical printing for dads, but here is the full list

>Editing

There are three amateur dads now doing the work that was supposed to go to the editor. I'm one of them. We've kind of already cut the original editor out of the picture. I don't really feel bad about this, since the only actual work he has put in has been for the blank template files that were provided to you. Later, I will have to disable his access to Google Drive on my account. The past month has been spent on editing of individual submissions, and the quality of the pages overall is very high. I think original editor could have probably delivered slightly more polish overall, but it should not be an issue. We are dedicated to bring you a high quality magazine, nothing in this regards changes.

>Cover page and rear page art

When the editor signed up to be the editor, he also asked to do the front and the rear cover art. He has not started working on anything, so we will replace him with Scarlet anon's artwork. Scarlet originally intended for the artwork to be a two page spread for the cover, but editor had already signed up. The original image does not have text on it, so it will need to be adapted with text overlay. We're working on it. It's very high quality and I have no concern here.

>Credits

As I didn't intend to put my name down as organizer anyway in the first place, organizer and editors will be anonymous in print (I had previously said I expected editor to print his name).

>Printing

This one is the big one to me honestly. Editor had offered to us essentially printing services. I cannot offer this to you. Printing a proof copy for Bea is no problem at all. Basically every site offers this option. To be clear and just to reiterate, Bea still gets her physical copy no matter what. That was the point of the project in the first place so of course it was researched in advance. At this point we are only talking about other anons in /yah/.

There is an alternate solution where I print 25 copies, get paid on PayPal, and mail them out manually. But, I see this as possibly causing more trouble than it's worth. I can't print less than 25 copies on top of proof copies (at least on all the sites I checked), and it would involve a certain level of trust with information. So, we would need both demand and trust. Additionally, the copies would not be cheap (~$20 + $5 domestic/$25 international shipping). I will need to gather feedback on this one, and possibly make a poll after gathering the feedback and giving you all time to think about this.

Printing physical copies for dads was not part of my original plan, since I just didn't think it would be worth it. It was part of the original editor's plan and was not brought up until after we had already kicked off. Not offering printing to anyone except Bea will make this easier on me and avoid potential issues, but I know it will make some people unhappy. Of course individual dads would be able to take the provided file and to get their own copy printed however they like. Please take the time to give any feedback or ask any questions that you may have, especially in relation to printing.

>Magazine
Not an update, just checking in. We are still on track with the goal of completing the digital version by November 30th. This is not the same as the digital release date. It is to represent the date that we are sending the file to the printer.

based organizerdad how goes the progress?

Please leave whatever message or doodle for Beatani that you like. Text/image/combination will work. Please follow the guidelines on the readme file and mail your submissions to WhoIsYouMagazine*Gmail . Make sure you get an email reply from me to confirm receipt. You do not need to have submitted a page to the magazine to submit a template file, as I'm not cross checking. Sign it as you like (or don't sign it). Thank you!

>Ultra Nu Anon
I'll write you an e-mail after the stream ends

If I don't hear from you within a few days, I will have no choice but to strike the submissions from the magazine. I will keep trying to reach you in the meantime. As a whole, everyone has done a great job submitting/keeping in contact. Thank You.

>HIGHEST PRIORITY MAGAZINE UPDATE
I have finished cross referencing the original list against my email box. The following pseudonyms have NOT sent me an email with a submission or request for extension. Please contact me ASAP.

Egg Anon
Investigator Anon
Muscle Anon
Ultra Nu Anon

OHADAYO! Good morning, dads, moms, brothers, sisters, and friends!

>Magazine Update
Thank you to everyone who has submitted so far. Everyone should have an email reply from me. I have granted a few extensions, almost all of them are under one week. One person admittedly did not start until a few days ago, but he is working on it now.
This weekend I have set aside in full to start organizing the project to hand off to editor chama. I will be checking your pseudonyms against your submissions, and making sure that all of the requested information has been correctly provided. If you have a submission on the spreadsheet and you have not contacted me, I will call you out directly on the thread. I'm not sure how many people this applies to yet (if any). But, if there is no contact at all within the next week, I will probably strike your submission.

>Rear comments section
I was asked about it, but I probably will not get around to organizing it this weekend. Maybe next weekend I can give details. Again, it will be something like a 300x300 pixel limit, or a character limit, or something like this.

>Zoo anon
I wrote you an apology. I fucked up!

>Magazine Due Date
It's here fellas! 2359 JST tonight! If there are any issues, you know where to find me. I'll be trying to give extra attention to the dedicated thread, and emails go straight to my phone so as long as I'm around I can answer quickly.
