A Future For JPG Magazine!

Mike — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 07:33:13 +0000

Recently, I was bummed to hear JPG magazine was shutting down. But there’s good news for JPG afterall. Here’s the most recent email from 8020 Media, the company behind JPG Magazine:

“We couldn’t ask for a better community. In the week or so since our last email, the outpour of support has exceeded our wildest expectations. Your efforts, such as starting savejpg.com, writing blog posts, commenting on Twitter and Flickr, and generally making your voices heard, have provided exciting new opportunities for us.

We’re thrilled to say that because of you, we have multiple credible buyers interested in giving JPG a home. We will be keeping the site up after all, and hope to have a final update in the next week or so on who the acquirer will be. Thank you for making all of this possible.

Laura Brunow Miner
Editor in Chief”

JPG Magazine is No More

Mike — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 07:54:47 +0000

“Today is a particularly sad day for all of us at JPG and 8020 Media.

We’ve spent the last few months trying to make the business behind JPG sustain itself, and we’ve reached the end of the line. We all deeply believe in everything JPG represents, but we just weren’t able to raise the money needed to keep JPG alive in these extraordinary economic times. We sought out buyers, spoke with numerous potential investors, and pitched several last-ditch creative efforts, all without success. As a result, jpgmag.com will shut down on Monday, January 5, 2009……”

That’s how the email I got today from JPG Magazine began. That sucks. I’m sad to see them go.
