This evening, I'm pleased to introduce GPXile.

GPXile is a new magazine, written in cooperation with a few others, designed to bring the best of the GP2x/GP32 community to you in one simple download. No more hunting around for information, as we'll give you what you need, and serve it up on a half-decent looking pdf.

Besides the magazine, GPXile.com is a website packed with resources. We're aiming to fill it up to the gills with guides on how to get the most out of your GP console and up to date news.
There is also a forum, where you can ask questions yourself and not fear getting flamed or attacked by elitest members, leave suggestions for the magazine or just generally chill out with other community members.

When you feel like it, why not take a look?

Very nice indeed.

PDF format is a good idea now we have a PDF reader. Reading a magazine about the GP2X on the GP2X appeals to me immensely.

All Ive got to do now is d.load the PDF reader :)
 
very cool. thanks for this, guys. also, if you need any help typesetting or anything...i don't have indesign but i think i can look on the internet for it :)

but i own licenses for some cool fonts:

gotham
mrs eaves
helvetica

what did you use to make the pdf?

Do you think we should do a jpg zip with the pages in it? For viewing with the GP2x image viewer? As isn't the GP2x PDF viewer kinda slow?
Have you spent all your time in Off topic and didn't notice that ParkyDR released a very fast PDF reader? ;)

Goodness! You've got Sam Fisher proof-reading?

Several grammar/layout mistakes in the first review, and I've only just started reading!

:)

Nice mag, very well done for a first issue.

I didn't think I was credited with proof reading. I found the biggest typo, which was half the pages were watermarked with the magazines codename lol. Not the final release name :p Nova wanted to get it done last night so I couldn't give it a proper read. If you post them, either here or in the comments / on the forum there then we can fix those errors :p

Edit: Just noticed an inexplicable sentence in my review :p I'm sure its not there in the original. I think that Nova may of introduced the lack for comprehension in that one when getting my review to fit two pages.

There's a big error on the what's hot/not page.
You mean the thing about a firmware which starts going on about the PSX emulator?

Don't blame me for your shoddy work sam. :p

Yeah, we didn't actually get to proofread the final copy.
I half proof read the pre-final copy :p

The font changes halfway through the Nickspoon interview. I think for something with so many errors, it looks pretty professional :D

Now when I get back to my own PC I can help with fixing them.
