... please tell whoever is in charge of such things NOT to split a full length rifle photo over 2 pages!
One of my pet peeves, too.

The bird who does the layouts pastes 'em down (both facing pages) on boards that don't bend in the middle, so those double-truck photos look really sharp on the solid, flat layout boards.

Pointing this out once, I picked-up a magazine at random and riffled through it until I found a double-truck layout that was even worse than I'd been talking about. It was a scene photo, and the cutline below it called attention to a small detail in the center of the photo � which had disappeared into the gutter between the pages. I'm sure that important detail had been easy to see and study on the layout board, but it simply wasn't there in the printed and bound magazine.


"Good enough" isn't.

Always take your responsibilities seriously but never yourself.
