If you have any comments or suggestions for future newsletters, please let me know and for those of you that aren't subscribed, you can do so by using the form on the homepage on the right side.

Thanks again!

Already read it, its awesome

Suggestion though, I think there should be a section for like industry news or something, web news, newest products online etc... just a suggestion.

Oh, and given that you are into predator stuff, i would have thought you could have come up with something more imaginative than "dans den"

other than that, awesome

Thanks As far as industry news goes, we won't really be going too nuts as this is a P2L newsletter for the latest news and happenings on the site and the community, and our focus isn't really on reporting news outside of that scope. We'll be looking into expanding our focus this summer as you guys will see, but the primary goal of the newsletter is to keep people informed about P2L and the community, catch gossip and special exclusives and get an easy heads up on cool tutorials, contests and other things you may miss out on from other areas of the site.

But yeah, stay tuned to the newsletter for announcements on new stuff we've got planned.

Haha... would "Dan's Cave of Slaughter" be more your style? :ninja:

Looks good so far, I would add some design aspects to it, like new section headers and a sweet newsletter logo

Good work Pixel2life Staff!

For the time being, the Newsletter is text based only to ensure everyone can view it properly and it can be read offline This is actually why more and more people are swicthing back to text based newsletters.

I really liked it but i'd prefer it if it were like IGN's newsletter's (with images) (=

[Case]

Ace, just the quality I would expect from P2L

Maybe you could add a Site of the Month, not tutorial contents or anything but just a really well designed a nice looking site. Sort of inspiration

where is the online newsletter going to be ?.. mah bad.. i'm not good at reading

[raidsilver]

I read it this afternoon and it was excellent.

I was expecting some sort of graphics. A design. The whole PLAIN TEXT thing shocked me, actually. I've never seen something P2L be all text.

Is there anything planned in the future for a graphical newsletter?

If Web 2.0 was a company, their newsletter would be like this..

Simple, no images, fast loading, a great read, thats all I needed

Yea, its more pleasing to the eye with a graphic every once in awhile.

[Bug]

Even just a small style would suite the newsletter well... but yeah, I understand why you left it text-based

Ditto, majority have html email disabled anyways, plain text is fine with me but would like to see an online copy of the newsletter as well much the same as photoshopsupport.com does.
