Have you considered adding small articles to the magazine? I've been reading Shojo Beat ever since it came out and they always have a small opening page from the editor. Maybe put out a few pages out of fan things? Maybe a mangaka interview? That would be fun! It's a suggestion.

Yup, those are really good suggestions. We have planned on some mangaka interviews, but since the first issue was done in a rush, we don't have enough time to add it, but hopefully we will have it in the next issue. Words from the editor I have thought about that too... like every mangaka will have a few words per issue... let's see if we can add that in. For fan stuff, we will need to wait till someone submits something =D

I think (or at least hope) the next issue will be much longer =D Thanks for the suggestions!

also, when there are some important news you have to give us.. can you use a different font other than AnimeAce? It's a good comic font, but I thought if you have LONG news to write or something like that.. it'd be better to use Verdana font or Tahoma.

I know that this suggestion is like 2 years old now, but maybe we should try doing this one again. I'll see if I can come up with something for December since I'm still working on the main city of CH6. ^_^

LOL Haha. Articles are always welcome for the awesome writers =D (I am not one myself, so I never submit any written stuff).

If you can think of something to write (preferrable related to manga), submit it and it will be added to the issue. Page size is also 450x650 pixels.

Oh my goodness, I'm happy this was revived. Yey ReuS! (Saves me making a new topic and looking silly for it.) I think quick articles about manga, on making it and inspiration and things would be fun to do, and I'm sure readers would enjoy reading them.

And when we become super famous, just think of all the excellent mangaka who would be lining up to be interviewed by m-- I mean us for DREAM articles!! -STARS IN EYES-

Alright! Thanks for the re-go-ahead Ki! And I'm looking forward to what you've got too Vervain. Happy to help! ^^

Remember everyone, I'm doing the editing for the next issue in January 2010. So if you want to submit any articles, send it to my email. And of course there are a few tips on submission.
    -Completely optional for everyone
    -Page size of course is 450x650 pixels
    -Articles can have pictures or illustrations
    -Topics should mostly be manga related but can also be about trends in manga and its culture
    -Open to anybody even outside of rotation schedule or registered mangaka (Just submit to the editor)
    -Submission deadline is by December 20th

If you're not sure what you want to write about here are a few suggestions:
    -A tutorial on how to make a webmanga
    -A diary of a day in a webmangaka's life
    -Trends in webmanga or manga in general
      -A suggested webmanga outside of DREAM
      -How to draw your character
      -Letter to the editor or to DREAM mangaka

    There are more options of course so just get creative and get writing! I look forward to reading your articles! ^_^

    Oooh! Yes! ^_^ This sounds like a really good idea!
    I've been thinking about submitting some tutorials or drawing tips... I'm pretty good with photoshop too, so maybe I could do some tutorials on that... Yay! :D
