Uncover Magazine 1st anniversary

Author: Maryna Wind | Filed under: News

September 26, 2008 the first issue of Uncover Magazine was published in-world.
I remember how nervous I was that day. There were other magazines out there, but mostly about fashion and we wanted to show more of Second Life. We really wanted to have quality content.
We evolved from one language to three, from in-world publication to issuu.com publication only, from 50 members in our flickr group to over 800 and who knows what kind of transformations are waiting for us.
On the way we got a lot of positive comments: about presentation of articles, about texts we wrote, about going beyond sl fashion, about small number of ads per issue. We don’t publish each month as some other magazines do. First of all, we think that creativity needs time, secondly running international editions is quite a challenge. Each issue we celebrated with a party and those were great, think of the latest in Insilico.

I would like to thank all who ever contributed to our publication, those who reads and supports us and of course members of our Flickr group.
I hardly can name all people involved, but today I’d like to say a special thank you to
Imogen Miklos, Kristi Maurer and MichaelJ Rossini who gave a bright start to Uncover.
I also would like to thank Prad Prathivi for support and contribution during the past year.
And I would like to thank Chou Skinstad for all she’s done for the magazine and very often those were impossible things :)

Sincerely,
Maryna Wind
