Our current 2008 and past 2007 issues are currently available through purplemag.com for easy download.
We may return to Lulu is the color print quality for zines improves a bit, and the price becomes more affordable. Our current print issues are being prepared for distribution through Amazon.com and should be searchable by later Summer 2008.

Thankyou for your interest and support.
If you experience a glitch with the downloads, no worries. We offer more than one option. We're aware lulu's system isn't compatible with everyone.
Check the www.ultravioletunderground.com sidebar for current magazine downloads, and if all else fails contact us: purplemag@gmail.com
Most print issues will be available, though there was a glitch with Lulu's system and issue 2. Lulu's print interpretation of our CMYK color was too poor to offer our audience, even at a grassroots level. We are still offering old print issues through lulu in hopes their print quality will improve as time passes and they grow. We are researching other options... Most updates will be available through ultravioletunderground.com
We know the print issues are a pretty penny, but we offer it in case you desire a physical copy. We don't receive a dime, and have to charge the base minimum Lulu offers. Our sincerest apologies for this inconvenience.
For more information on the free downloads for .pdf back issues of Purple Magazine, visit Ultraviolet Underground
and scroll the sidebar to click the magazine issue that will transport you to the links. Purplemag.com is under reconstruction though old blog posts will still be available for awhile.
Thankyou again.

Print: $12.30 This Out-of-box celebratory issue features and celebrates the members of the URB ALT community who abandon boxes in favor of being and the wondrous mystery within it.
Note: We aren't earning a cent on this issue. The price reflects exactly how much Lulu charges to print a 36 page issue (a mini-issue essentially). They're buggin' out. We have a better solution in mind that is about 8.00 cheaper *_^ Problem is it could take us some time to reformat all of the issues to fit with their system.
Please bear with us.
You can download our .pdf's for free and print them out on your own [not for sale but for your own enjoyment]*_^
Shine on.
