good job. the graphics are nice, the fonts and colours are apropiate and beautifull but the title is to small… (and don’t think that i’m gelous but… come on: nater isn’t all about flowers, even if it is “monthly special”). ignoring that, it deserves a spot in the top. good perspective. u cud fix these leaks and post it again!! :cowboy: ---

Looks really nice armored! Your entry might look better without the roll of film at the bottom, but that is only a minor gripe. ---

> [@kirupa](#): > > Looks really nice armored! Your entry might look better without the roll of film at the bottom, but that is only a minor gripe. I think the UPC should go on the bottom, and the film strip going across the top, and the small info on the top also to move to the bottom Red text on Red picture ☹ ---

Hi, Thanks for the comments everyone! Have a sleep over it I might change the position of the film strip. Maybe having it go across the page… I don’t know… I also tried several colors for the text but none was really working out so I settled for orrange (#FF8000) and grey (#8C8C8C). ---

I don’t like the font choice for the story listings. Other than that looks pretty good. ---

I don’t like the font you’ve used at the top. It looks ok large, and in small-caps, but small and normal just reminds me of flub-- Anyway, I think the colour of the ‘Capturing nature at it’s best’ text would be better… Some other colour. But apart from that, it’s good. Good job. ---

The text placement is great; however, the colors (to me) seem to get lost within that vividly colored photograph. ---
