Hey guys,

just doing some research on Baseline Magazine for uni and was wonering whether anyone read/subscribed?

just curious as to what you like/ don't like about the magazine and whether there are other typographic magazines that you prefer?

We are trying to take baseline and re-develop it to suit a younger audience. Any comments would be great.

Thanks :)

I've not heard of Baseline Magazine. Is there a PDF you can direct me to (that costs nothing) and I'll have a look at it. I'm always intrigued by books/magazines that are aimed at the design/print community.

Jeez, their website loads slow.

I don't subscribe (and wouldn't at that price:eek: ).

So what are you asking?
Are YOU Baseline and are looking to lower your sites? I'm not sure what you mean by a 'younger' market. Typography is typography. No 12yearold is gonna read it. You really don't want to focus below college level content or lower than High School reading skills.

Or are you looking to copy Baseline in some fashion?

I believe after reading the original post that the OP has been assigned to "take baseline and re-develop it to suit a younger audience" as an assignment for "uni".

Figures.
Only a professor could take a professional magazine and want to stupefy it for the masses. I hate that. :rolleyes:
