Topic: Cool Photoshop magazines online

Hey guys,

I just wanted to remind you that the first issue of Photoshop Digital Painting magazine is coming out soon. If you subscribe to the newsletter at http://www.photoshopdigitalpainting.com you will also receive a CD Archive of PSD Photoshop magazine. And there are some free issues to download there as well.

Have fun!

What's the verdict? Is this patent spam actually useful, or am I going to have to go into the 'removals' business and hunt these dogs down?

I'm currently up the air about this one. Lots of mixed feeling about various things.

Well, I think it is not nearly as bad as the other type of spam we have been getting, but it is still SPAM all the same. The poster "mgladecki" is "Newly admitted" and is doing nothing more than advertising a website and magazine or on-line magazine.

It looks like this is a new venture so the main purpose of this post is to generate traffic and custom for the benefit of the owners. I doubt if anyone here would benefit from that site.
Having said that this mgladecki person may well be posting here for more altruistic reasons and may go on to become a valued asylumite.

Ohh look, is that a pig flying up to the tower?

*sigh*

It is, unfortunately, spam.

Spam is spam is spam... Even if they post in the 'appropriate' forum

so do these companies pay someone to spam forums? Just not a great business model. Our company could just spam forums "Hey Guys, if you need something printed, give us a call at..." that's just stupid.

Here's the thing; how do you publicise a company that specialises in spam? Do you spam forums with spam about your spam-related services?

I'll betcha you can find more than one of these 'spam companies' here:
