Deal with model magazines, oppinions please

Nuno,
My opinion depends on the magazine. Most companies that pay for an article will pay much more than the price of a subscription. Right now, FSM is looking for Readers Tips. They will pay $25 or $35 if you have a picture or image. That will get you a subscription if you use the coupon in the magazine. I understand the pay is much higher for a full article (but having never sold one, don't have that info).
Now , if you were doing it for a smaller magazine or a club mag, a subscription might be a good compromise for both parties.

Thank you Philip! Great answer!
