I was just wondering what is that paper that most magazines use.
That shiny glossy like paper, not photographic paper just that thin paper that is quite shiny.

Also if i would like some band flyers to be printed on it where is the best place to go, or can i do it at home by myself?

Magazines commonly use 36#, 40#, 45#, 50# and 60# groundwood paper. Groundwood is available in number 4 or number 5 grade.

best thing to do is just look in the editorial - normally tells you stock, weight, types, suppliers etc.
