=History =

JPG magazine was originally self-published through Lulu In 2006, after receiving venture capital funding from [|CNET] founder [|Halsey Minor], JPG re-launched as an offset-printed magazine with retail distribution, appearing six times a year. The first print run was about 20,000 copies, while the website drew some 1.5 million page views in the first month after the re-launch. In May 2007, founding editors and creators of the magazine Derek Powazek and Heather Champ announced their departure after a power struggle with 8020 Publishing CEO Paul Cloutier. Cloutier also left the company in 2008.

On January 2, 2009, JPG magazine announced that they were going to shut down operations on January 5, after running into cash-flow problems. In February 2009 it was announced that new investors had acquired JPG magazine and were re-launching the print magazine, website and associated assets. However, by May 2009 there was no sign of a printed magazine, which was scheduled for sometime in the summer of 2009. New photography themes and members of staff have been announced on the JPG magazine blog.
