This shows that most people would want to improve my double
page spread the most, followed by the colours and layout. Feed
back I got back said; the colours chosen were too plain, the
contents page was plain and too many clustered pictures, the
black font runs into black photo, maybe less writing, include other
photos, front cover looks a bit bare, and the typography looks
amateur. While others said it looks bright and would keep it the
same.
