A 25th anniversary retrospective: leading up to Lucire’s launch in 1997
Above: Lucire’s holding page, as archived by the Internet Archive on October 17, 1997. There was no semicolon in JY&A Media; this appears to have been a bug from the Archive’s spider, as explained here.

In the overwhelming majority of cases, we’ve loved […]

This year, 2022, marks our 25th anniversary. It is a landmark, and we’ve been incredibly blessed to have made it to a quarter-century. When I started Lucire I had hoped it would be around in 2022 and beyond, but I couldn’t have foreseen the many changes on our planet over the last 25 years. […]
A tribute to the uniquely creative and brilliant David MacGregor
Wayback Machine at Archive.org Above: A 2000 screenshot of Emale, created by David MacGregor. I was very saddened to learn of the passing of my friend David MacGregor, with whom this magazine collaborated in the early 2000s.

Revamping Lucire to look sharper on mobile devices
