[QUOTE="redkobold, post: 1725472, member: 2585"] I find the white a little plain myself. Perhaps some middleground between what it is now and the watermarked pages. The first page of all of the articles is especially bare however with the expanded margins. My first impression (though irrational) was that I was being cheated of content. I would like to see image borders, sidebars, or even "thumbnail" sketches relating to the article in the margins. While we are on it, I also miss plain black line art from before both magazines went to full color. I would like to see some line art graphics in articles again if it is graphicly appropriate. I recall an issue of Dungeon right after it went to all color that had images of the pencil sketches of the illustrator. I think it was the Robin Hood Campaign adventure. That was very nice. As an artist, I like to see some of the process, and some of the rougher concepts pictures and let my mind fill in the blanks. For me it is more evocative, like a black and white photo versus a color photo. Anyway, just some thoughts. [/QUOTE]
