  • Another newbie from the magazine side . . .

    Posted by Sophie on November 19, 2004 at 1:02 am

    Well . . . as Colin’s pitched in here, I thought I might as well stick my head up from under the parapet, too, and finally register so I can post on these boards.

    I’m the editor of Signs, Screen & Digital Printer which, in a sense, tries to mean all things to all people. I started the title back in 1998 because I could see little point in increasing the dichotomy between processes and wanted to put together a magazine which covered all elements. We started as Screen & Digital Printer, and added Signs to the title in 2000 because of the numbers of sign-makers phoning me to ask about digital stuff. Prior to SSDP I was involved in other sign-related titles, as well as running the consultancy side of my business — and I’ve been around for the best part of 25 years in one guise or another.

    The digital side is really my speciality these days, but no-one should try to kill off the other processes because they’re still very much alive and kicking.

    Enough said . . .

    Now I’ll read on . . .

    Hi sophie and welcome to the boards!
    i actually get your mag aswell, but it gets sent to my fathers home instead of our work for some reason so i miss it from time to time.
    always good to have another editor on the site. to be honest, we have all the mags registered here. just the others dont say much, but i see them on now and again. spying! :lol1: 😉

    If you let me have the correct info, or the wonderful Tina (tina@ssdp.net) who looks after Things Administrative, she’ll correct your details so the mag goes to the right place.

    Glad to be on board. I’ve been lurking for some time . . . and it’s good to get on a well constructed set of boards, using decent forum software which doesn’t take an age to go round the block. Well done!

    We’re on the web in full at http://www.ssdp.net — although the site’s currently having a bit of a revamp . . .
