Hey guys,

I also wanted to point out the newly redesigned, simplified pages in the HTML edition of the magazine. Not only have they streamlined the work involved to create the HTML edition, but the newer, simpler pages also make the creation of the eBook versions of the magazine much easier.

We hope you like them!

Hi, yes it is now possible to see the HTML version.

It was not intuitive to get to the Feb issue, as clicking on the large pic does nothing, one has to click on the smaller pic on the left, which brings one to this
http://pclosmag.com/html/Issues/201302/enter.html
from where the Feb issue can be viewed.

For the moment I suggest changing the link provided to the issue specific one, and if possible for the future make the larger pic clickable for more intuitive access.

I don't know about other browsers, but in Chromium I find that the side panels outside of the page itself, do not behave in sync ---  as in they do not space equal to each other as the page is zoomed in and out.
If it is possible to change that behaviour it would make for a more pleasant viewing of the mag.

Thanks again to all those involved in the mag .......  another great read ......  and to 'he who took up the challenge' of producing the HTML version.

regards
