Thanks for the responses. Now I have to check out why I'm not getting notifications to my posts!
Ok, so what I mean by production values is basically maps and artwork. If I have to pay for them, I'm going to have to charge for the PDF and print products and I'd like to avoid that if possible. If everyone is satisfied with 18 - 32 pages of text broken up by a few tables and the occasional piece of donated art, I can look towards a free PDF and a nominal cost for the print product.The layout is going to be simple, no frills, done by me, so that's not an issue. If you've seen any of my products you'll know what I'm talking about.
As of right now I'm planning a quarterly magazine with the first issue available at the beginning of July. I'm going to make a more detailed list of the types of submissions I'm looking for and as of now, yes, it's only going to be for Labyrinth Lord/AEC, since that's what I'm running and am most familiar with.
I'll post more info soon, but please keep up the discussion. I'd certainly like to hear what sort of submissions/articles you'd like to see, things that would be helpful for you to make running your games easier. I personally like seeing new and interesting monsters, but I also like detailed locales like taverns, smithys, etc.---places that come with interesting NPCs and a few adventure hooks that can be easily dropped into any game.
