After much hard work by many members of the community and our fearless leader @jonne himself, the second Pokitto Magazine is now available!
A free preview of this incredible work is available here:

This issue has a great deal more content, especially surrounding the Gaming part of Pokitto. I know I’m quite bias, due to an obvious obsession for Pokitto and the community surrounding it, but I must say this has some incredible content. It is also much larger than the first issue!
Great, this Mag Cloud Service isn’t working at all - when i got the order receipt there was a totally different country than the one i chose and now i hope i can get a new order in. And the shipment is quite heavy as well for a paper mag - sigh
Oh and btw. i see my first article submission didn’t make it into a magazine. Seems it didn’t fit in. Would have been nice to get some feedback, because it was some hours of work that went into it.
Hey Nicole. If there are any problems with MagCloud, let me know. I am still learning the system. If there are any mischarges Pokitto will reimburse. I will try to set up an alternative to magcloud for security.
As for the first article, I am not going to lie. I read the article when you sent it to me - and then forgot about it because it was so much earlier. I am sorry. My brain and memory are on constant overload. I can only offer to put it in the third mag - there were some other articles that were not in mag 002.
Unlike the first magazine issue, this round we ran into the problem of having a bit too much content, so a few articles and content pieces were held back.
But! Like last time we can move them to the next issue as a starter (see the Adding a License article, that was submitted for the first magazine but didn’t make it in).
I really hope this won’t deter you from contributing more great content in the future.
Mine just arrived here’s a side-by-side comparison with the first magazine. The binding on the first one has the paper folded and stapled in the center, whereas the second one is stacked and glued to the cover (offers a sturdier binding). The paper from the first magazine feels a little heavier than standard printer paper, whereas the second one feels like a higher grade card stock (adding to the overall sturdiness).
Overall the quality, ease of shipping (at least to the Americas), and on-demand printing is a definite win for MagCloud. For reference I ordered my copy on Wednesday July 29th, it shipped Friday July 31st, and arrived today Monday August 3rd (really fast IMO).
