Hello eh..

My name is Mike, and I hail from the great country of Canada. I've been reading your magazine as long as I can remember, and I don't think I've much to complain about. However this "new" layout that you have in the July 10 mag is brutal. I relies the magazine has to change, but this one seriously looks like a video game mag. From the ridiculous top left page icons to the black background's on a vehicle shot, that makes the details hard to see. (Refer to page 72). Whatever happen to the celebrity rating system? That was killer, nothing like seeing a picture of Jessica Alba with a 9.0 under it. I relies that alot of hard work went into the change, and you still have the professor , but, I dunno fella's this doesn't do it for me.

just my 2cents

Thanks for the feedback. We are working on detail corrects for the new format. Some of the things mentioned are being addressed. Sometimes you have to see things in print and adjust how they look after. I let the black back ground go for one issue, but I didn't like that either. The icons are getting shrunk and we're improving the design...so it does evolve.
