Gallery used to be big but they went bankrupt last year - owing photogs and models a ton of money. Magna Publishing bought Gallery's publisher, Montcalm Publishing, out of bankruptcy for 1.3 M, very shady. Magna publishes a ton of magazines, all niches, most well known would be Swank. None of these magazines are paying much these days or buying much. Score has always paid lower. Gallery used to pay 2500 per photoset. Now it's $1,000. There's also Half Moon Publishing - they are mostly interested in buying 'second rights' - they have bought a ton of stuff off my photog.

oh - and the publisher of Tight - forget their name. http://www.tightmag.com - they're showing the same signs as Gallery did.

horrible future for mens magazines of all kinds.
