    Now, that's a full-service designer. An ovation, if you will, Farbecker...

    But now that headline is awkwardly tilted. Dammit, Chris...  ;D

    Geez, was that a nit-pick. Chris' tilt makes it even more distracting.

    And I think the outline type works perfectly on the black background

    I was thinking the same thing.
    I think I liked the page better before I knew the photo was crooked ...

    The only thing I don't like is the two-toned letters on the main hed.
    I mean, if you're going to do it make it a BIG contrast.

    Other than that, I have think it works.

    Hey, we don't pick what we name the pages. The ad folks do that for us.

    And thanks for the compliments. And DAMN YOU ALL for bringing up the tilt. Now it's all I'm gonna see when I look at the page. Thanks a friggin' lot.

    I like it, though I'm with Carrie. A TEENSY bit more contrast in the letters would have worked for me on the main hed.

    I like the rail with the photos, and I even like the alternating colors on the page refers at the top.

    Man, Farbecker makes a cameo and just disrupts the cosmos. :)

    Sorry, G.

    Composing.

    I remember composing.

    They're the ones who wanted me to run "dingbats" when I came up short on a story...
