Hey all I am looking for a link to find old issues of dragon and dungeon Magazine. Particularly a Dungeon issue from like 2003, it had a great artical on the Yuan-ti. But having all of them would be nice as well.

A multi-CD set of the first 200 (I think?) Dragon Magazines in PDF format was released some years ago, ebay (or similar) would probably be the best place to find a copy. The indexing is poor (iirc - been years since I used mine) but they are complete.
Beyond that you are probably moving into the area of illegal copies/web hosting of copyright material whichis a bit of a problem.
If there are legal archives out there then I would love to know about them too.

Yeah that's what I was afraid of, I found out the issue I am looking for is Dragon 305.

4shared is a great web site

I'm not familiar with the site, but I think that may be illegal.

Take a look at Paizo's website. They have print copies of a lot of the issues, and pdfs of those they don't. They do offer Dragon 305 as a pdf though. (http://paizo.com/products/btpy7zjr?Dragon-Issue-305)

You can always support your local gaming shop. They frequently have back issues on hand. I know of three stores I've visited that do, anyway.

I would caution against posting links to copywrited material....it's a big forum no-no....

As would I. However posting a link to the copyright holder's website for the product is allowable, especially when pertinent to the discussion topic.

I'm don't think 4share is the copywrite holder for Dragon Magazine ;) Not sure about Piazo though....

But anyway...

Heh, 4shared definitely isn't. However, Paizo held the publishing rights to both Dungeon and Dragon magazines throughout the third edition, up until 4th edition came out.
