I don't think there are any print magazines flash specific. If there are, I

don't know about them, so they're missing part of their audience :) There's

not that many geared to multimedia (particularly net multimedia). I signed

up for a couple and they went out of business.


I think you're going to have a very difficult time with this. Our common

interests don't exist in the print world. We're an 'online' crowd :) So I

suspect the publications we read vary a lot according to our other tastes

(that is, we aren't reading them because we're flash designers).


Personally I read a lot of graphic oriented magazines (Adobe, Creativity,

Graphic Design, Computer Graphics, Publish et. al.) but nothing that

regularly. I wouldn't go near Wired and the ebusiness mags strike me as a

magazine long advertisement that I pay for ;) (a lot of the print world

doesn't seem up-to-date enough for me), but I'm sure a lot of people here

are more interested in those things :)
