Icreate - England

You bet, this one is. There are only a few Mac oriented magazines out there and they all wish they could be this well written. This is a large format magazine and each issue is filled with a series of how-to articles that I consider the best written, best illustrated and easiest to follow. I can slog through some fairly dull reading but this is the magazine I would give to my wife / daughter / co-worker to explain how to use iChat, hook up an iSight camera, customize iCal, get started with Safari and so on.

They review many new software tittles and the latest hardware goodies. Since it is a magazine, the reviews are very current. Each issue comes with a CD and they are starting to include pdf copies of prior issues, great for reference.

I started reading iCreate with the very first issue and haven't stopped yet. I had recently purchased an iBook for my sister in an effort to bring her into the 21st century but for all of the ease the Mac offers, my sister still wasn't really doing anything but using email...and even then maybe once a week. I picked up a copy of iCreate for her when it first came out. I liked it because it was written in plain english and it seemed that every page was a tutorial. Well it is 11 issues later and I am still hooked on this magazine. My sister has her own web page and is a master if the iLife program..all thanks to iCreate magazine. I read it too,,,love the disc and the articles. I find that it is better than Mac Addict (which hurts to say) and some of the other Mac mags. This magazine is geared towards the beginner to intermediate user but I'll tell you...even experianced users will enjoy it.

I picked up a copy at a local book store strictly for the article on networking and found a lot more useful items included. If you're into Macs for using the iLife and similar software, there are a ton of good "tutorials" included in each issue. Newstand price was $15.50, so it's more on the order of buying a paperback book instead of a magazine. Content is excellent--I found things in the tutorials that even the local Apple store didn't give in their classes.

Great magazine couldn't recommend it any higher for anyone starting out with macs. iCreate also introduced a great Pro section in 2005 to delveinto the workings of ProApps such as Final Cut Pro, Photoshop, mDVD Studio Pro etc. Now here's the thing, I'm wondering how the magazine can be available for subscription while the magazine was put on hold late last year. Me, or anyone I know with a subscription haven't recieved the mag for months, and there has been no contact from the people who handle the subscription despite zillions of e-mails. So be careful, get the full story before you hand over any money!!!!!!!!!!! check the web for similar storries, you will find them

Want Icreate - England Discount?

I subscribed at their website; used promotional code "USA3"

The price dropped from '80 Pounds to '50 Pounds ... thats less than $USD 80 for 13 issues (Amazon's price is over $USD 139).

Downside: (1) the credit card will add a fee for foreign currency; (2) You don't get Amazon's satisfaction protection.

8/27/2011 I just renewed my subscription. The code "USA3" still works; 13 issues delivered to USA for 50 Pounds. Great magazine, highly recommended.

8/6/2012 Time to renew? Promotional Code "USA3" no longer works. "USA4" is a new code, does work, but the price is £65 for 13 issues. That's over $101 USD and exceeds my budget by a lot. Digital edition may be less expensive, but since I don't have an iPad, that's irrelevant to me. (Come to think of it, much of the mag's content is now iPad-centric.) Guess I'll let the subscription expire.

Mailbox - Grades 2-3 Edition

Just like the other reviewer mentioned, the Mailbox magazine is a good source for the occasional great classroom idea. However, they were warning me it was time to renew right after I got my first issue with almost the whole year left in my subscription. The renewal request flurry escalated to phone calls every week that continued up until I finally demanded they stop calling me. Given that my school may ask me to go up or down in grade-level classroom instruction for next year, how would I know to which magazine I should subscribe that far in advance anyway?

If you don't mind all the renewal notices and calls, it's a good source of ideas, especially when you need something in a hurry.

I love this magazine for teachers by teachers. The pictures and instruction ideas for current monthly topics are wonderful. I couldn't live without it. In our school we share, save and steal this magazine from each other. The best part of the magazine is it is teacher friendly with minimal planning so that teachers can use the ideas easily. Mailbox prepares worksheets and easy instructions for tons of projects. I don't think there's anything like it out there. If you teach children, they'll love you for subscribing.

I am disappointed that my first issue of Mailbox 2-3 will not arrive until November. I ordered in July, and I was hoping that the arrival date would be, at least, by September.

I've had this magazine for the past year and have used several of the tips, activities, posters, etc. However, I have also gotten endless emails from Mailbox promoting products and asking me to renew way in advance. This continues though I asked them to stop. For the last three or four weeks, they've been calling me on the telephone every day. This continues though I asked them to stop. The few good ideas in each $6 issue are nowhere near worth the trouble of dealing with this harassment.

Want Mailbox - Grades 2-3 Edition Discount?

I was going to buy this as a gift, but after reading the reviews I have decided it's not worth the spam and daily phone calls. However, I searched around some more and found out that Amazon sells this for the exact same price as retail (even though they claim you are saving money off some higher price). So, if you want to avoid the harassment but pay the same price, buy it directly from the distributor but use a fake phone number and a throw-away email address. That's what I may do.

I ordered my subscription in July. Here it is mid-September and I have not yet received one issue, and I'm wondering if I ever will. Other reviewers say it's a great magazine. I'll have to take their word for it. I'm a little miffed at how long it's taking to be delivered.

If you are looking for a popular Italian gossip magazine, this is one of the most popular in Italy. Recently the magazine has been in the spotlight for publishing candid photos of Kate Middleton.

Vanity Fair - Italian Edition

The magazine itself is great but unfortunately delivery is inconsistent. I have repeatedly tried to resolve the problem through amazon and yet the problem of missed issues continues.

Hot Bike (1-year auto-renewal)

so, I ordered for my husband and I am not jealous, a bit ...smile, but it's just so much of it that it borders on, well, it just seems more provocative than Harley, as described. If I'd wanted this, I would have ordered a strictly Harley mag like Iron Horse. The descript says nothing about all the provocative stuff on almost every page...even ads.
