JPG Magazine Saved from the Brink of Closure

On January 1st JPG subscribers were sent a particualy sad email telling them that their beloved magazene was closing its doors. It took less than two weeks for the comunity to make thier voices heared and created enough interest for the site to find a new owner.

“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.”

Visit the site, they could do with your support.
