I'm glad to announce that you can now read the November Issue online for free!
Dramatic Story
I started this project the 18Th of October and just started with a cover. Than i figured: Why can't i make something like a Magazine? So, I continued finishing my cover and decided to just go for it! I Squeezed out my brains, and prepared myself for the biggest challenge of my life. After some drawing and sketching some Layout designs, i started to write down content ideas.
I asked around for people who wanted to help me, and so i did. I found some volunteers who would aid me with this big project! The first school holidays came closer, and I kept working and improving layouts and texts.
Of course I wondered what would happen if the magazine would be a real breakthrough? My world was upside down, and my head what bouncing in every direction. Finally I decided what to do. My plan was to bring the community a Minecraft Magazine in a digital way.
The Minecraftian would have to click one link & There you go!
The November Issue is available for download right now on Issuu.com for free!
CONTENT OF THE MINECRAFT MAGAZINE: After reading all these beautiful things, you will have to be excited to know what the content of this magazine is. The Minecraft Magazine will be community based, but will also include news about Mojang, updates, etc.
The Cover
The cover will receive a new background every issue and will be most likely themed every time.
The Table Of Content
The Table Of Content will always be located at the second page. This page shows you all the content the magazine has, and let's you locate your subject a little faster!
Introduction Page
The introduction page will be used as a little blog of the magazine where we write changes or information about the magazine and Minecraft. The credits are also located on this page.
Minecraft Updates, Snapshots & Pre-Releases
Following the Introduction page we have the updates, snapshots and pre-releases of Minecraft's PC, XBLA and pocket edition. All the new things will be noted here. Reviews for these updates, snapshots & pre-releases will also be included. Note: Minecraft Magazine's staff will write and give their opinion

Seems very well done, a great idea! The only thing was that I couln't read it because of the font... Maybe change it to something a bit easier to read? Apart from that, awesome idea. Looks great
Hello, thanks for the feedback.
Can you be al little more specific about which font or text?
Greetings.
Awwwww!!!! I like it! I have a cool idea as well: because its an digiatl magazing, could there be the oppertunity to interagte videos? So you could do a builoding contest to themes like Western or Space or smth. like that!! Or maybe you could cooperate with yt-cannels, who already organize such a thing (and are sucsessfull with that ) I'm excited for the first Edition! Looking forward to it! I think he would like it too-->
Hello, thanks for the feedback.
We will not integrate videos, because we want to keep the concept of a magazine.
Building Contests is a very good idea, and will think about that in the next edition.
Thanks, Greetings GraphicalMe
This sounds amazing, and I would definitley read it. It has the potential to be huge!!!!!
Just wish I thought of it before?
ps How many people are working on it?
Hello, thanks for your opinion.
"Just wish I thought of it before?" ==> I got that feeling a lot
Currently there are 6 people with me
Greetings.
This is a brilliant idea, I have seen quite a few ideas similar to this but none have been as serious or well thought out.
I can tell it will be a great success if you take your time with it.
I've only found one problem, for the sections such as 'Tweets', 'Mods', 'Texture Packs', etc...You will need to get permission from all the original owners of that content and that will take quite a bit of work.
Nevertheless, I wish you the best of luck with this project and if all goes well, I will be a guaranteed reader.
Hi, I think it would be nice if you all had a full Fan fiction novel in your magazines, maybe a chapter or two each issue. I like to write fan fiction and would be honored to write for the magazine if you ever decided to do so.
Please google "Minecraft Magazine" and click the top result. Then tell me you still believe that.
Woah, that's a great reason to rate it as bad on the poll... Be honest with yourself,
1) We are aware op McQuarterly's excitence
2) They brought out 2 Issue's (And that for the full summer and fall period)
3) An issue full of advertisements and long boring story's isn't a magazine
4) They are not quiet community based, or do not show creations of players.
5) Though they have plenty of time to do so, they still have a pretty unproffesional looking layout
without anything interesting in it.
6) We are trying our very best to give the Minecraft community something nice and fresh,
and we have been working hard to make sure it's Top Quality.
7) Thanks for your respect.
I hope you will think twice and check everything before commenting next time.
Woah finally someone's doing this. I was going to try a while back but none of my friends would help me. For that reason I am offering my services. Ihavebeenaround since 1.2.5 so not for too long but I'm home schooled so ihave lots of free time.
