We've had some great feedback from you all about both the new look magazine and last month's CD, so please keep it coming! Your help together with the new format lets us tailor the CD to your needs.
We've got hold of some great stuff for your May 2003 Internet Magazine coverdisk, including some of the best site building software available, plus the pick of our Hot Downloads, Expert Help and Reviews sections.
If this month's cover feature interests you, and gets you thinking about the money there is to be made offering great deals to online buyers, perhaps you should consider setting up your own online storefront to showcase your own products? We secured an exclusive 30-day trial of the excellent Actinic Catalogue 6 - the de facto standard in e-commerce software - why not try and make a few quid? And to help you maximise your sales and really get your site noticed, Actinic has also published a free 16-page guide - '85 Top Tips for Selling Successfully Online' - it's available from www.actinic.co.uk/toptips/.
Many of the improvements will continue to evolve, including more software recommended or used in our practical articles. There're lots of projects for you to tackle in this month's issue, but you'll need some software at hand to help you out. If you're about to create a database site, there's PHP-Nuke, plus PHP and MySQL. If you were intrigued by the idea of placing voice calls over IP, you'll need to check out our Callserve software, and if you want to get to grips with spyware, you'll need to install AdAware.
Elsewhere on the disk you'll find Adobe InDesign 2, the latest full version of alternative browser Opera, a new edition of Netscape, Xara Webstyle, and a whole bunch of site tools for all our readers who are Mac fans.
Remember to send in your ideas for fresh content - we really appreciate all the feedback.
Hope you enjoy it,
David Parry
