Because of its focus on youth, most of the magazine's content comes directly from reader contributions. On XY.com we provided a series of complex forms which allow contributors to upload their stories, poetry, photos, film reviews, etc.
All content gets automatically stored into a searchable, sortable database for use by the magazine staff.
