RollItUp Magazine

Hey..I've been a lurker here for some time and I love the content here! I was thinking that maybe we could do a RIU magazine and the articles would be threads from the forums here...of course I would need permission from the admins and such but..here is what I was thinking for the sections so far..any input would be fuckin' badass!!

News: contains any news whatsoever related to marijuana around the world, be it medical legal..whatever!

DIY Project: this is section that would be dedicated to Do-It-Yourself where we could pick one topic from the forums every month that is a badass DIY project or tip of some sort

Know Your Grow: this section would be sort of like a "Grow Q&A" where questions get answered. Everything from pest problems to nute deficiencies, and little grow tips from our members

Munchies: every month there would be a cannabis infused recipe here

Cultivation: This would be the spot where there is an article written by a forum member about cultivation, either hydro, soil, indoor, micro, organic..anything! Of course I would go around and choose content that I thought would be beneficial or content could be recommended to me from somebody!

Contest: This part of the mag would contain the picture of the month and also any other contest ideas that the RollItUp members come up with

Medical Strain Of The Month: Members would vote on a strain of the month and the medical benefits would be listed here along with a nice drool-worthy picture of the strain

Grow Diary: We could pick a complete grow diary from the forums every month and showcase it in this section of the magazine, to get the experiences learned from it all incorporated into the mag

Cool Stuff: A spot in the magazine for badass grow gear, crazy pipes or bongs, hemp clothing...anything that it really interesting could go here

Media: Last but not least, a media section. Any bud-related books, movies, or internet resources could be listed here

And I've attached a pic of somethin' I whipped up in a few minutes just to give you a visual example of what I was thinking, and the quality I would be trying to bring. Let me know what you think! Oh..and my legitimate job is a graphic designer...

you wouldn't even need a copy sent to you, if you wanted to yes, but im sure there would be an online version that you could click through, High Times has a magazine and people get that shipped to them, nothing illegal about it

Exactly! There would be a free online PDF version exactly like the magazine and if you wanted a physical copy then you could purchase one. I think that the magazine would bring the forums some popularity and we could get lots of great talent here in addition to what we already have!

It would be unlikely. My uncle was an editor of a large magazine and said the market it becoming more and more lackluster and only the more established magazines (which he was fortunate enough to work for) are able to pull through. If anything a digital copy would be more appropriate and able to compensate a budget. Plus competition is also a pretty big hurdle, and high times has their celebrity endorsements.

It is a concept that has to be carefully thought out before approaching.

Plus, hell yeah I'd buy a copy! bongsmilie

In a way I like the idea.. But! I think bringing unwanted attention to the site would be doing all of us an injustice, however as someone else surjested an E-Mag could work quite well as an attachment to the RIU site we're on now, you would still need to corrispond with the RIU terms n conditions and enter a seperate privacy password, but that way its something extra for us to enjoy... thoughts? - STELTHY
