Sorry this is a little late for the thread - meant to send it last Friday. I haven't read Modern Ferret or the other glitzier ad mag, but, just from what I've read lately, I'm going to subscribe to MF!! Sounds like it's the one with the heart. I don't go in for commercial products: we make our own cages, litter pans, etc., but I would like to peek into the commercial mag. What if the person who had so many layout criticisms for MF turned them into productive suggestions?? Or even volunteered to help? I've never been very visually oriented, more of a word person, and admire the ability of some people to see things I don't - good vs. bad graphics, etc. (that is until they start pointing things out to me - *YAWN*, complaining, noise hitting the ceiling). I've always been more content-oriented too - if it's a cute pic of a fur lizard, oh, so what if the ferrite is way up in the lefthand corner with a huge black yawning carpet all around. I've worked on publications and know what it takes to get one out - and writing is really really tough. Lynn, SO Janos, cat Wellington and Seven Abashed Ferrets Bowing Their Thanks to Modern Ferret Mag P.S. Haven't heard a peep about the LOS magazine, is it called Ferret Digest, to which I may subscribe. Am curious if it is more of a newsletter or a magazine. Thank you all and especially BIG - Christmas isn't even here and you're lost in a blizzard of e-mail "gifts"... ;) [Posted in FML issue 1401]
