I like the magazine. But what is up with some of the photography it looks altered or is just the issue I got anybody else think this? But I do like the articles and the magazine you can tell its Rides but all the sponsor ads but hey it's cool I take it.

Publix / Walgreens
 
I've found it at Publix and Walgreens... and have looked at every store since first finding one for myself... I "face" the mag to the front of the shelf moving other rags to the back shelves to give "Pro-Touring" the visibility it deserves!

It looks like every photo in the mag is done in HDR (high-dynamic-range), which gives the subjects a fake or computerized appearance to me.

Other than that, I like it so far.

I agree I like it just don't need the weird photos I want to see the craftsmanship of the ride

I told my wife to pick up a copy but I was surprised that it showed up here in Kandahar and I bought a copy a few days ago.

I'm disappointed that in the front of the magazine it says it will be oriented towards the high dollar builds and will have minimal tech articles. I buy magazines more for the tech articles than the feature cars. High dollar cars are great and even a low budget build can get some inspiration from a high dollar car, but it's always cool to see well done, lower budget cars in mags.

I'm sure if they stick around it will evolve for the better though.

Just a collection of pics with a few words on each doesn't seem all that appealing. You can google info on any of them. Tech articles would make me a subscriber. For example, "this is why we did this, this is why and how."

Since it had Charlie's car on the cover - I skipped the entire thing.... Besides... I'd seen the pics via his texts. LOL

This was my biggest criticism of the mag as well. I guess I'm getting old, but I buy magazines to read, not just look at the pictures, so more text would have been good.

Other than that, I really liked it, especially the article about the Roadster Shop.
