Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
:woohoonaner:

At long last, the anticipated final issue of Volume 1 is now available for download at Bananas Quarterly - Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Bananas

:woohoonaner:

Subscribers will find the key in their inbox sometime later today, and of course anybody else who wishes to subscribe should do so!

The editorial team is hard at work on Volume 2, with the anticipated release date of both the print and e-ditions set for March 31.

Or maybe not.

Drat.

Sorry about this folks - we're still having technical difficulties. With all luck I'll have it straightened out by Monday.

I was going to say the links didn't work.. :^)

Here's the correct link I think Beth meant to post!

My link works, rather than the first link which renders "404 Not Found". Either way, the PDF doesn't open so there is no point in downloading it right now.

I'm sure Beth has it all under control!

lorax 01-30-2010 07:18 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
I'm working on it, I promise. Aaargh! I so wanted this one to be done with.

Taylor 01-30-2010 10:11 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
Beth changed her link, Randy. The original link she posted didn't work. The one I posted did. She put the corrected link that I posted in her post.

Please stop the nonsense. After all, "I promise not to interfere with any post you have placed on this board in the future!!!"

lorax 01-30-2010 10:13 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
Randy, I corrected the link as soon as I saw your comment about it not working. It should go to the issues page. But, as Taylor points out, that's a moot point until I get the PDFs back working.

Stupid cross-platform nonsense. If I wasn't forced to use weenix boxes to upload these problems wouldn't be happening.

What is your cross-platform problem, Beth? Mac <=> Win?

Thanks for your continued hard work, Beth. I was going to try to put it up for you, but never heard back from you.

lorax 01-31-2010 10:57 AM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
Yes, Jack, I use Macs (lovely, trouble-free Macs) and all cafes use Windows (weenix) boxes. My sticks have issues with that. I've wasted a CD on this now, and on Monday when the reliable connections reopen I'll go fix the error. (This is a Catholic country, and they take the sabbath seriously here. Nothing is open on Sundays.)

Ante: Yes, in March Issue 1 of Volume 2 will go to presses.

Beth,

Any chance of us getting the "back issues" of Volume 1 printed as well?

Your sticks? Mac issue? It's only in formatting Beth, why don't you buy a "cheap stick" formatted with something that can handle both Win and Mac? Or use emulator... But why would someone voluntarily work with Mac? It's so limiting (believe it or not, even more than Windows), if I were to use UNIX based platform, it would be Linux. That's a big IF, 'cause my school requires me to use Windows. :P

Greg, have you paid for a subscription? If so, you should have gotten a password emailed to you to unlock the current issue. I do know Lorax was having some issues with it but was hoping to have it straightened out today! I have not checked to see if it is ready, but I assumed she would let everyone know when it is!

BTW, if you have not subscribed to the emag, and sounds like mag starting next issue, here is a link to show you what you have to do...
Have a good one,

Subscribe to Bananas Quarterly!

Jack, if you want to do the complete graphic layout of a magazine, you donīt use Linux. Mac is excellent as far as graphic design and layout goes. Weenix just sucks, no matter how you look at it. I have no issues with my programs, and what I use are cheap sticks. The isssue is with the crudtacular weenix boxes at the cafes, which more often than not are suffering from viral issues. That was my problem, as far as I can tell; I'm in the process of fixing it as I type this.

Agreed, Mac's good for graphics. Well good luck with Wienix (yeah, I know).

lorax 02-01-2010 04:33 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
Weenix makes the snow weasels cringe in terror, yes. For this reason, the technical problem is still not quite fixed. I will update you all as soon as I have more news to share.

I did receive the others do you pay again for this one ? And is there a new password for each I know last time I had two passwords. Thanks

lorax 02-01-2010 05:54 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
Nope, Greg, if you've paid for Volume 1, you don't have to pay again. I think (fingers crossed) that I've got the technical problem dealt with. Will report soonly.

lorax 02-01-2010 06:10 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
Yup, it's fixed.

W00t!

Subscribers, you can now get your copies.

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
EMAG looks awesome!!! Just scanned through the newest edition and they keep getting better and better!!! Can't wait to print it off, laminate each page, and make me another Banana NOTEBOOK, like the first two editions. I must say, EVERYONE THAT PUT THIS TOGETHER, AS WELL AS ALL THE ARTICLES WRITTEN BY OUR GREAT MEMBERS, my hat goes off to you!!! Thank you so very much for all your great work...

I can only second the kudos for Beth. She has done an amazing, quality, professional job. BQ is something we can be quite proud of!

Bananaman88 02-03-2010 09:03 PM

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Now Available!
 
I agree, Howard. It sure would look good on the news stands, wouldn't it?

Looks great so far! Thanks to everyone who contributed to this issue!

Oh, just a thought I had...is there any way we can add the 'cultivars in profile' articles to the wiki pages? It just seems like an easy way to add well-written, informative text to the wiki to help grow its resourcefulness. Again, merely a thought/suggestion.

Caloosamusa 02-05-2010 07:10 PM

Best wishes to all the contributors and especially you Beth for the organization and production! Great Job! The learning curve has become very steep! :2239:
