[QUOTE="Marius Delphus, post: 1042221, member: 447"] Awesome work Cergorach (and because I don't own the 3E text/table fonts I am also a mite envious :) ), I only had the following reactions on a quick scan: * Balancing columns: When you do have that white space, instead of leaving all of it in Col2, can you even it out a bit between the two? For example, p.7 might look somewhat better if the Col2 text started with the "Turn or Rebuke" entry and p.9 might look better if the Col2 text started with the "Venom Immunity" or "A Thousand Faces" entry. This comment doesn't apply to, say, pp. 4, 11, 13, and 17, where I prefer having the class name headings at the top of the page. * Your color bars seem to be "missing" the table text (a couple points too high). * On a (way more) personal, idiosyncratic note, there are eyes staring at me from the top of every page, and that's a little distracting. :) * The right-hand page header text is getting just a tad "lost" in the lightest portion of the image, IMO. Would a bit of a drop shadow help? * That full-bleed header image is going to get cut off left, right, and top on your average office laser printer (where I do most of my printing :) ). I haven't measured, but I'd suggest making sure the page header and page number were at least 1/4" from the page edges, to be safe. * Going back to idiosyncracies, I'm not really fond of the right-aligned headings, so I'll mention that *I* think they might look better left-aligned. They're already emphasized 5 ways, after all: size, color, font, all caps, underline. I know, core book look and all, but there it is. :) * "Rich baker" and "Dave noonan" need capital letters on p."666." :) Don't know about "better" but there's some feedback for ya. :) [/QUOTE]
