[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by flee307</i> <br /><br />It's a weird thing, but do you think Sport's Illustrated make sports teams phototgraph their games or do they send photographers? How about Newsweek? Can anyone think of any magazine other than the one's ran under the Kalmbach logo that require readers send them pictures and articles to print? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />"Require" is a distortion.There's no "requirement" for readers to send any magazine anything. Many to most hobby magazines rely on submissions from readers; and it's downright a tradition in model railroading. RMC relies on reader contributions, so does N-Scale, Mainline Modeler, CTC Board and Trains. Ad RMJ, Narrow Gauge & Shortline Gazette, and Model Railroading to the list. <br /> <br />The other option is $12 per month cover prices to pay for a staff the size of Sunset's or Better Homes & Garden's to generate all the model railroading articles in house. There's no way advertising rates, even for MR, could support that size of staff, nor would the hobby support a magazine that expensive. <br /> <br />Paul Schmidt
