and here it is.

things have definetly changed. everything is a little bit more asthetic: a few more graphics, a little nicer wording. the first thing that you will have noticed is the complete revision of the title page. it's a little slower loading, but a whole lot more pretty. if it becomes too much of a hinderance, drop me a line and i will do a text only version.

consequently, many things have changed. advertisements, for instance, are going to be done a little different. advertisements are still in limbo and will have to be dealt with on a case by case basis for now. as always, you are encouraged to link to dust to dust and now the copyright/linking page contains copy and paste instructions for linking html- just click on the banner graphic. the fiction section will start to include some more graphics as well. submitters are now to be encouraged to include artwork with fiction and poetry.

the recent focus on art does not mean that the magazine's views have changed. the music reviews are still its backbone, it's just that we've added a few more limbs. this issue has three full reviews of new music and a good deal more to put into the words section (i.e. we actually got submissions!). both are worth checking out if you haven't already done so. but enough of the pitter patter (the things you think of at three in the morning) and please, don't kill anyone, ok? signed, brian (brian.searle@reed.edu)
