Hi Fred! If possible retract the precious. Here is tcorrected! I am referring to the design, given the elements used. Nothing more needed, other than a rethink. Nothing against your photograph. Geddit?! I never go after people, but point when things could be better. Yes, as designer we finagle with smidgens of space; although I do not get the opportunity to design these days.
Let me spell it out so you understand the neither you nor the designer WERE being attacked! You have seen a lot in your time, and besides in your own right as a publisher; so your "dunno" is pointless. But in a way it is what it is. Designers take decades to mature unless one is gifted, or mentored. To reiterate: nothing against your photograph! Wake up, read. I made specific comments and pointed out that with those elements a better job could have been realized. In my stoopid way I try to point things out, but should stop. Woe is me. Later!!!
