Areala's Work In Progress

[Areala]

So, since everyone else here has a WIP thread, I figured I should add to the mischief.

Currently, I have just debound my very first magazine (and finished crying...). I'm working on scanning through my small pile of Sync Magazines, and I'm starting with Special Issue 2, as it is small and will be a good way for me to get some experience with scanning and putting together a release.

So we'll see how it goes! Wish me luck, ye other scanners of excellence!

Sync Special Issue 02 has been scanned, edited and uploaded! Coming up next, Sync Vol. 2, No. 5 (Sept/Oct 1982).

Sync Vol. 2, No. 5 scanned and uploaded (incidentally, this is the 666th issue added to the database. Make of that what you will...). *evil grin*

Next up comes Sync Vol. 2, No. 4 (July/August 1982). Check out the Wrath of Khan cover, all you Star Trek fans!

Sync Vol. 2, No. 4 has been scanned and uploaded, which means that it's time to start a new project!

Next up, it looks like I have Sync Vol. 3, No. 5. They keep getting longer in page count.

In any case, here's a cover preview:

Very nice Areala. And the mags are too

Cleaning up the Star Trek mag to convert into a PDF for uploading.

Ultimate thread necromancy! I finally figured out how to get my scanner working under Windows 7, so I could complete my work on Sync Vol. 3, No. 1 which has just been uploaded to the site.

Good to see someone else still making esoteric mags available over here. More to life the EGM & Nintendo Power eh

Doing my best. Any of those you want for OGM, feel free to take or use.

I have a heap of Sinclair User issues in my basement awaiting the day that I can scan them. Just too much stuff ... too little time. Great to see someone with something I haven't seen before....

Well, you went quite wild with the ad database again, heh.

I think this will be the next one I add to the archives:

Computers & Electronics, Vol. 21, No. 02 (formerly Popular Electronics). This is the February 1983 issue, about three months after they had undergone the name change. This is a very tech-heavy magazine, geared more towards electronics hobbyists and intermediate-to-advanced computer tinkerers--beginners need not apply. Also quite ad-heavy towards the back.

We'll see how long this one takes me.
