Reducing the picture to 256x128 pixels, and posting it on its proper thread.
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.

Let's say that the project is in the concept design stage... indefinitely.

I really want to do this, the only problem is that my oofic-writing skills are certainly not up to par, I can however do designing for pages and the like. But so far no one has sent me anything.

Your reveiw has been finished and is set out magazinely, but I have lacked the time so my reveiw still needs to be typed up (it's all on paper though) and I still need at least one more by whoever wants to contribute (but please not any sort of cobra :P ) and I also need some other interesting parts to be writen out, such as equipment sections.

I offer to write some equipment reviews (it will be a welcome short break from another project I have on the go :wink:). I will do some oxp and standard equipment and leave some for issue two of the magazine.
