Just got my Dec/Jan issue today. What has happened to the paper quality? Its absolutely shocking. No point of taking good photos if you are going to print them on newspaper!

The last edition Of Rib Mag (approx 2 months ago) was on good paper. I thought that the quality of the articles had improved also.

Yes I would agree with TSM. In comparison to what we have been having previously it was far better production by far!

Seems to be a big push to move it to an online format, given the info slip that came with the Magazine.
