I can’t view the files, not sure if it just me?

they aren’t uploading normally… not sure why…
anyone have any suggestions for that?

Make sure they are low enough in memory, used to be a 500kb limit, not sure if that still applies. But compress and flatten as much as possible before uploading. If for some reason still not working, try a web PDF or export pages separately as JPGS or in the “worst” case upload screenshots.

I got the first page but the second page still won’t upload!! :roll_eyes:


Here we go! :wink:
Everybody Please critique!!

Somehow still not seeing the second page.
First page looks really good!
I think the logo on the cover could use more contrast, and i wonder if the image would look normal on the back cover since only the young hands would show. I really like the way you implemented the logo subtly into the background. It adds a lot.
Love the color scheme.
Alzheimer’s paragraph has a widow.
Cant wait to see the second page.

Thank you! yes I thought about the back cover image… I will try and look for another image that can stand alone… the green on the front cover appears wrong like WAY to dark when you click on the image!

I rly like the back page! Should the icons line up with each other?

Also not seeing the second page…
Overall looks really nice. On right panel, would suggest that the title is a bit stronger, maybe just bolder would be fine, an either exactly centered on the panel or tracked to justify with the body text. Body text gets too close on to the right edge towards the top of the text.
Middle panel title shouldn’t have a drop shadow on such a small thin font, or you could try bringing it much closer to the text and darkening a bit and not fuzzy, as is dizzying a bit this way.
Left panel title needs somewhat tighter leading. Icons should line up centered in each column, or be more obviously staggered as feels a bit random right now.



Ok here’s the updated of this one!
Thanks for the feedback! Let me know if there is anything else…
I’ll be uploading another brochure in the series in a few…

here is another brochure in this set
please let me know your thoughts!! Btw when you click on the image some of the colors look wrong it is correct the way you see it in the regular view…
Music Brochure DeKalb|647x500

Nice. A bit hard to read the orange text on the blue-ish gray background, and the contact info should pop out more on that panel.
Avoid widows in a body text, I noticed at least one in this brochure and I think one on the other.
For titles, such as in the middle panel, leading should be tightened between lines of the same heading. You could increase leading a bit on the text in the bulleted list and the white text on the next panel. ON left panel, don’t indent paragraphs, you can bold a lead-in instead. Text on back panel with the hands playing the piano, looks like it could be bigger…the text throughout is all a bit too similar in side and visual weight. Contact info on back panel should be easier to read-bigger, or bolder, with more leading etc.

Thanks for the feedback!
What do you mean by windows in the body text?

not windows :joy: widows (words by itself on a line)

Oh my! I really read that wrong!! I was so confused! I thought I had my terms straight but I never heard of that one!!

ok Its another brochure!
Please critique!
On the 3rd panel on the back page I need advice on what would work well over there please…
Thanks in advance!

Love the coloring! Like the way you cut out the picture with the teddy bear!
Maybe you can find a font with a bit of a feminine feel for the main body text.
For the 3rd panel, why don’t you do something similar to that middle panel right near it? (Less tab indent, titles in script font…)
Hatzlacha!!

Hi all! I made some changes!
Please see attached and let me know what you think!
Thanks so much!!
