"The Early Issues

The first version of JPG Magazine was created by the husband and wife team of Derek Powazek and Heather Powazek Champ. It was a quarterly printed publication devoted to brave new photography that took submissions over the internet and printed on good old fashioned paper. It was edited by Derek and Heather, printed in digest format, and sold through Lulu.com.

These first six issues of JPG Magazine served as inspiration for the new JPG Magazine, and they are available exclusively through Lulu.com."

L’État c’est Moi  Pro User  says:

To be honest I always felt the JPG mag was written. IE the mails I recieved and the information on the site to be a little patronising. You must or this or don't do that. ETC ETC.

I think I now understand why.

Damage control for sure. I am sure Derek and Heather will learn from this and bounce back with an even better online community.

Cheap attempt at appeasement. You've already got rid of the guts of the operation. Idiots.
