We did it! There's an issue of Finnish Super Power magazine available now. Thanks to kitsunebi and MigJmz without whom this would have been quite literally impossible to do. And everyone else who helped somehow. Also thanks to people who did nice things like pulling magazines off auctions and selling them for a friendly price (they presumably will never see this, but thanks anyway). The first reactions that I have heard are positive, so at least some people are happy to see this happening. Ironically, I'm not sure if that's the case with the OP... As many magazines as he listed, he didn't mention what was finally uploaded, but I guess you can't make everyone happy. Anyway, going forward, there will be more magazines coming. And here's the thing now, if you are planning to do any work with any Finnish magazines, I would appreciate if you could contact me first. For now, I'm probably the only one working on anything, but if anyone out there is planning to do something, it would be good if we could coordinate our efforts, and most importantly avoid doing the same things simultaneously. I think the risk of that is small, but it's better to be sure.

It's a bit confusing when FAQ is referring to a guide which doesn't exist, but thanks to you both, those are very clear and good instructions on how to do it. Good info. I hope others will find this thread in the future and use it as a guide.

I am about to try to upload stuff, as apparently some options which weren't working for me in the past appear to be working now. Thanks to the person(s) who pushed some right buttons . But I'm not able to find all information that I presumably need. About uploading covers: FAQ says: "If you notice that we are missing a magazine cover in our Gallery, please feel free to upload it and link it to the correct database record. Members are also encouraged to upload higher quality images of existing covers if they can. Check out or guide on how to Upload and Link images." I can't find that or any other guide that would tell how to link images, or how to name them properly, or what would be the required pixel size. Am I missing something obvious here? When I tried as far as I could without actually uploading anything, there were no instructions, or any menu option that would link an image to any particular magazine. About uploading magazines: Scanning guide says: "An admin will create a New Release post for your issue if you do not have permission to do so yet" I tried a practice run of that, and I seem to be able to upload magazines that I am working on currently, and it would also appear that I am able to start a new topic in the new releases area. But there's no guide that tells how the post is linked to any uploaded magazine. Is it somehow automatic based on some magazine database code, or is there some template that I need to manually copy-paste and edit in the message window?
