We're Starting, Slowly

Okay, it's been a while since the last post, and a lot has happened. We've met with a professional designer who has given us great advice on our magazine.

Today, we are just finishing up our opinion pieces, our first writing pieces of the semester. We've written some satires--on text messaging and Wikipedia--and some serious commentaries on nuclear power and electronic textbooks. Some of them will be up as soon as we've finished editing them.

On the design front, I could bore you on the specifics, but here are some of the general trends in the magazine:
1. The color scheme will be black and white with accent colors of blue, green, dark pink, and orange/yellow.
2. Magazine sections will be indicated by a change in the color of the folio.
3. We will have all of our article layouts based on a layout in our inspiration magazine, Wired.

We'll post again soon! This magazine is going to be awesome!
