Thanks Giggleton. I guess it wouldn't be too strange to post our magazine directly on our site then. Interesting about the Kindle newspaper layout. What format is it, do you know? It looks like it might be a more robust format than mobi though I could be wrong. I think I could mimic a fair amount of the layout, though not the 2-column Table of Contents (unless maybe that's a table) or the footer that doesn't resize with the type (although maybe that's an image). Hm, maybe I could. I know epubs would support more of it.

I wonder what's involved in distributing a free magazine through Amazon. I imagine that can be done though they'd probably charge our company when it's downloaded. Dunno if that's worth pursuing or not!

Thanks for your input,
Phyllis
