Re: MacAddict changing name to MacLife?
I been trying to be positive up till now but that logo..........

It's like I can just feel my life force being sucked out of me when I look at it.

Don't you remember the nasty female ass that was on the LOG OUT page several issues ago?
Anyway, I sort of lost touch with the magazine when they stopped destroying peecees on the staff videos.
Do they even do staff videos of any kind any more?

I don't know, I liked the staff videos too. But like I said earlier, they are making it into whatever the marketing department, and the executives wives want it to be. Not what the readers knew and loved. No longer will it be for the forlorn addict.

Re: MacAddict changing name to MacLife?
Though the name is OK I'd still prefer this: 
It gives a hint to the heritage of the Mag.

Max has no part in a Magazine about Mac Life, he was an addict, and he's gone with the change.

I guess that comment isn't about my latest post since that one isn't about Max but rather about a subtle change of the new logo. Makes me though.

II was just saying that Max represents the attitude of MacAddict, but in Mac|Life, there will probably be no place for attitude or originiality. Seeing as how your thread was declared "Not the place to bitch about the change", I posted something here.

Re: MacAddict changing name to MacLife?
I personally hope that MacAddict will survive in the new Mac|Life suit - ´specially since I've already paid for a twoyear subscription of what I, when I signed up for it, thought would be MacAddict. I really hope though that the staff is willing to change the overall look and feel of the mag in case we readers/subscribers has conserns about it.
I still think they should add the pointer arrow to the title and let it replace the dot above the "i".

Re: MacAddict changing name to MacLife?
Wow, so if I type something here, the Eds might actually see it? What to say...
I guess I'll be okay with the change. All my old friends will still be there, except... Max.. Oh, God, WHY?!
*Runs off to cry.*
Okay, I'm back. By the way, if you guys ever have the time, join us at the rant room for some virtual calvinball, will you?

They don't give a smurf about you, now. They're all about those potential halo effect folk who buy iPods 'cuz they're cool. Moving pages and not creating something meaningful.
They will see it and disregard it.

Because I can see and I can feel, and you can see and you can feel
So why don't we both either stand up and fight
Or at least together we'll call it a night.
