It's a nice magazine so far with good variety in each issue. I hope you don't mind a little critique, though.
The solid white pages look kinda bleak, especially when you have a bunch of them in a row, having a background of some other colour or texture for different articles would make a big difference. It would help to make them stand apart and make the magazine look more exciting.
There are still some awkward empty spaces. When I submitted my article I remember offering to give pictures if they were needed, but I wasn't contacted about them. So when I saw the big blank space in my article I admit I was a bit disappointed. Even a random fan art could have been included there, or a random pic from anime or manga. Almost anything would've been better than an awkward blank space, really.
Still, I thank you all for making these magazines, and I look forward to what the next issues have in store.
Thank you for your feedback
I have a hard time reading things myself on busy backgrounds, and I aim for accessibility for those with vision impairments as well so I opt for white as I know it's readable for everyone. We didn't have any other fanart submitted that could fit nicely in there without being sized down, and sorry I must have missed your note about offering pictures... Most people include them directly in their submission already (and I've had bad luck following up with people before the print deadline, though I know you would have provided them I apologize).
I will definitely try to get more options for empty spaces in the future. We were in a bit of a rush to get this one completed due to other events we were attending
This is still a work in progress. We've only made 3 of these so far~
I'll get that updated soon for the digital version!
