Digital Previews

Have you checked out our digital previews of the upcoming issues yet? You can see the entire issue before it ever even arrives in the mail! Do you enjoy this perk, or do you prefer to be kept in suspense until your printed issue is in your hands?

Jump in to This Photo Dilemma

New Contest Ideas

We'd like to offer our readers a chance to share their creativity with others who share their interests. Which of these opportunities do you think people would be most eager for?
1. A place to publish their animal photography
2. A place to publish animal illustrations or stories
3. A place to post fun family photos of kids interacting with animals
Or have you already come up with an even better alternative to these? We'd love to know.

When it comes to social media, how does the eSafari rank with you, especially when considering Facebook and blogging? What particular advantages are you looking for when you click your newsletter open?

Designing a Closing Spread

Whenever we end a Zoobooks issue, we hope to do it with a photograph that is both dramatic and memorable. Here are a couple of choices for our upcoming Butterflies issue, which will reach subscribers in February. Which of these images do you prefer, and why?
