The problem with Cosmo is that he's english is really bad, having a conversation that flows with him is difficult  |

You should do a few interviews imo.. I know there's 2 in this release, but for example: 1 known person who does templates 1 unknown person who does templates 1 known who does manips 1 unknown who does manips 1 known who does vector 1 unknown who does vector Ya know.. Im not saying do 6, maybe even 4, or kind of mix it up each time/mag. So the next mag for instance could be "2 unknowns, 1 for manips, 1 for vector", then after that something different. I dunno. Just ideas. I could try and get some people to get interviewed for the upcoming Creative E-Zine here in VS. Many people actually like getting interviewed and getting out there. So I think it'll be cool to have different types of interviews for it. Thanks for the suggestion. |

The problem with Cosmo is that he's english is really bad, having a conversation that flows with him is difficult I could've translated (most of it) for you. Swedish and danish are very much alike. Most people can understand it, though Google translate would've done the job for anything I couldn't, since I would be able to decipher the results better than most people. |

For interviewing, next time, don't have so much as a list of preset questions as a guideline of ideas. Flow from question to answer so it doesn't feel choppy and superficial. Cosmo is an incredible interface designer, but you really only asked him about one or two questions about that. You mostly asked kind of simple questions that didn't really interest me or grab my attention. Really great 1st issue. Hope to see it go far! Yeah, I didn't want to intrude on his style and kinda stayed away from asking him about interface, didn't want to come off as a noob asking for his skillz. But I understand, my next interview will probably be with Alyn, and I'll ask him heaps of questions about terragen and such. As for superficial, it's kinda hard when all you have is dA notes.  edit: Also, there was the language barrier, as sven said.. I wasn't sure I could ask him complex questions.. but that wasn't a leading reason, it only helped. |

I say we do member interviews, that way it can be more community based.

Do something amazing so we have a reason to interview you, then we'll interview a member. And I don't want to interview Jedi, even though I love his work, his english is very, very bad. If anyone knows german here though, and wants to translate, I'd go for it. |
