''JPG'' is a magazine, launched in 2004 as a print-on-demand magazine by the husband and wife team Derek Powazek and Heather Powazek Champ. It is published 4 times a year〔See (about )〕 by 8020 Publishing, which focuses on photography. The content of JPG is user-created and submitted via the magazine's website. When photos are submitted to the website, they are voted on by members of the site's community for inclusion in the next issue. Photos are separated by theme, with some themes being assigned to issues while some are not. ==History and profile== ''JPG'' magazine was originally self-published through Lulu. The magazine was headquartered in San Francisco.〔 In 2006, after receiving venture capital funding〔 from CNET founder Halsey Minor,〔 ''JPG'' re-launched as an offset-printed magazine with retail distribution, appearing six times a year. The first print run was about 20,000 copies, while the website drew some 1.5 million page views in the first month after the re-launch.〔 In May 2007, founding editors and creators of the magazine Derek Powazek and Heather Champ announced their departure after a power struggle with 8020 Publishing CEO Paul Cloutier.〔 Cloutier also left the company in 2008. On January 2, 2009, ''JPG'' magazine announced that they were going to shut down operations on January 5, after running into cash-flow problems. After a grass-roots effort started by 15x100's Struan Oglanby at savejpg.com, investor interest came to life as the official website enthusiastically acknowledged, thus offering new hope for the magazine, contributors and readers. In February 2009 it was announced that new investors had acquired ''JPG'' magazine and were re-launching the print magazine, website and associated assets. However, by May 2009 there was no sign of a printed magazine, which was scheduled for sometime this summer. New photography themes and members of staff have been announced on the JPG magazine blog. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「JPG (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
