Yesterday I posted about 韩寒’s new magazine here. With the initial announcement of his magazine he encouraged anyone and everyone to send in their work for publication and applications for jobs. Given that he has thousands upon thousands of readers and also that he is offering especially high compensation and salaries, he of course recieved craploads of emails. 

In his new post he comments on all the emails and also gives some advice for anyone planning on sending something in the future in hopes of publication. It’s pretty funny to imagine just how many…’not so useful’ submissions he recieved.

 

About the pictures: we’ve received some pictures that are really worthy of appreciation and we’re still thinking about how to match them up with the style of the magazine. However, please no more sloppy camera phone pictures, landscapes, travel shots or artistic nude photos. Also, first please send a smaller version, photo album or a link to your blog. I once spent 3 hours opening a gigantic document only to realize it was a travel photo of the author at West Lake. I enlarged the background thinking maybe there was some sort of message from a UFO. I also enlarged the water thinking there might be traces of a sea monster there. Regrettably, it really was just a picture of the author sitting in front of some West Lake scenery. Therefore, I’m asking that everyone please appreciate said beauty on their own in advance. Also, I’m not saying phones can’t take pictures. A lot of phones take really great pictures, but I think your head in that video has got to be over 300,000 pixels.
