Competition Comment: A lot of issues I saw in everyone's magazine was that text boxes weren't justified. I believe only one magazine had justified text. It makes everything look cleaner. I realize my critiques may seem harsh, but it's tough love. I don't want to lie and say everything is great if there are issues that not to be pointed out. How else will you grow? Be proud of your work and take my criticism with a smile, please.
