Pantechnicon Seven: Sneak preview

[Troo]

This one goes live on the 1st of April 2008. Here's a sneaky peek at the cover before I slap text all over it (all right, all right, I promise to slap less text on than usual):

We're rather chuffed to have been given an ISSN, so from Issue Seven onwards, Pantechnicon will be stored in the British Library.

Also, watch out for some rather spiffing news, to be announced once Issue Seven's available...

In fact, I decided against slapping any text on it whatsoever.
