To all the members and patrons of fourthirdsphoto, over the last year we have worked very hard to produce a full blown web based webzine. However, for a number of reasons I have decided for the current time to stop making it for a number of reasons (Though I am not saying that it may not come back in the future). What it all boiled down to it, is that I at this point in life do not have the extra 60-80 hours an issue to layout the webzine. I really enjoyed doing putting it together, sharing very high quality images, etc, but because fourthirdsphoto is not my full time job, I believe it best to simply go back to a traditional website.
I still need member contributions, as well as community support, to keep the website going, and will strive to produce the best 4/3 content in the world, but in reality I think that the webzine is simply to big of a requirement from me at this time. We will keep the blogs and the forum as is, but all substantial articles will be placed into this section - news.fourthirdsphoto.com

Hi Tony if you have text, I can work on the layout. It is what I do for a living so I could help you out.

Tony,
i'm sorry to hear that. the magazine was a great read.

how about delegating the work to other people?
what Lara suggested might be very helpful.

thanks for all the work so far.

The 4/3 magazine was a great idea, once one buys a camera there is not much point in reading about other brands, I just dropped my subscription to PC Photo it is just a run down on different cameras every month and of course mostly nikon and canon.

It seems that Olympus would at least have a quarterly, too obvious I guess. I learn more on a site like this or Wrotniak than on Olympus, what are they thinking....

Hats off to you for doing the mag in the first place, and for doing it so well. As Assaf said 'the magazine was a great read'.

Tony, thanks for all you do. I sure do understand the time constraints, never enough hours in the day.

Thanks, Tony, for all the hard work you do keeping this site running. Understandable about not having sufficient time even for such a labour of love as the magazine.

I hope the archives will remain as "collectors' items".

Now we all have to contribute more great material to the forum.

Cheers,

Bill
