I've not tried subscribing to any magazines myself, however, I remember from some of the user comments on Amazon (you might like to take a look at those relevant to your subscription) that images simply weren't part of the Kindle subscription. I.e. it should not be a geographical issue. You could always try to change your address and download the magazine. If you do it wirelessly, you may be charged an international roaming download fee.
The ebook library application, calibre, can handle download and creation of a number of papers and magazines based on their RSS feeds. I've asked myself for a Jyllandsposten feed - it's not there yet, and I don't know if it will be. I guess it depends on the RSS feed. The functionality is based on a Python script - I don't know that language and have been hesitant to try out things
I think there's a 'sticky' thread in the calibre forum section of this site about custom recipes.

At least the price difference between the US zone and the Europe zone for certain books have left most to believe that it's mainly there to cover the download charge. It seems the best guess to me
There's another way round the geo zone issue (at least it should be, I haven't tried it myself yet), and that is to buy an Amazon gift card, create a new account and attach the gift card along with a valid USA address - i.e. don't attach a credit card. And then attach the Kindle to that account. I would assume though, that the international roaming fee kicks in, so download to your computer and transfer via USB to the Kindle.
