Default Unofficial Cobra Mag available for reading

Hey everyone,
I have completed the magazines first and only issue. if you want a copy just PM me.
or if anyone knows where we can park it (web Site) so you can go and download it might be better. It is a PDF file 8Mb in size.

I have sent it out to those who requested it as at July 31st.


Once you've had a look at it. post the feedback here.
Cheers, Rob.

You haven't sent it to me and I can host it on a web site for you.

I'll PM you the email address again.

The magazine can be download from:
http://www.cobracarclubqld.org.au/Ne...s/NewWAClubMag

Rob, it's a fantastic effort. Lots of little clever ideas, like how you formatting the opening Editor comments to fit in with the front guard area.

Articles are easy to read, plenty of photos.

Very professional effort.

(let me know if you want to change any of the text from the news post on our site about the mag)

Rob,

I forgot to look up Bruce Allen's email for you.

Does anyone have it - it is on the back of Snaketales.

Ben

Had a quick scroll through the mag. here at work - yes a slow day!

Its very very very very good - did I say it was very good, no it's bloody fantastic!!!!!

But I reckon the membership fees might launch until you get some ongoing sponsorship. However with a mag. of that calibre you would be fighting suitors off with a club for sure!

A high performance product deserves high performance advertising and that type of mag. would deliver the goods.

Well done Rob, now get back to your build!!

Cheers

Rob,

Excellent read - very informative and to see something in colour is tops!

I understand that Bruce Allen is relinquishing the Snaketales Mag (Pretty sure I saw / heard it somewhere).

Why don't you put yourself forward for that role, picking up WA in the process?

Default Great job Rob!

Robert, it's a shame about the editor part but I will definitely back you up, along with everybody else I'm sure, in you taking on the "possible" new role of Snaketales editor! If it ever becomes available that is.

Stef

I spoke to Ben (Snaketales Editor) this afternoon. He says he will continue to recieve all the content for the magazine but the printer will be doing the layouts and editing with Bens guidance. he also said they might go to colour soon. so looks like its all under control. The problem i have being in WA is I am too far away from everything and every one else in AusCOBRAtralia.But we'll see. I am here if anyone wants my help with things Magazine-ish.
