we spent about two weeks solid on kerning at 'desktop publishing' lite school. it made me giddy and my OCD flare up. i loved every second of it.

They are:

#A word or two at the top of a column that belongs with the paragraph at the bottom of the first column looks out of place.

# The start of a paragraph at the bottom of a column is equally annoying. When the rest of the sentence continues on the next page it can also destroy continuity for the reader.

# Subheads that appear at the bottom of a column or end of a page - without at least 2-3 lines of the following text - also look bad and hurt readability.

Ahh! the joys of shitty jobs in design!
My old job was exactly the same with low-res images.
I'm sure you are, like me a genius with the gaussian blur and unsharp mask tool because of it! Arrrrrggggghhhhh!

One of the reasons I like the job I'm in now is all photos used are professional massive ones - they're boring and all the uses are the same, but ahh what a nice change!

Love the sticker! I don't drive... maybe one on my bike helmet next to my apple sticker? hee hee

I'm tripping at the white space fear guy! That's mental...!

Oh how I love ranting shop talk!

woohoo!
