Man I really liked the design , great picrures and composition really really nice ... perhaps only the first page is too shy in presenting the the well designed content

Yeah, i really want ot make a second version of it in english, might be some changes too! Right now, most of the titles mean something after reading the text. I will consider adding some pictures in the intro page too! Thx for the suggestion :)

I think typographically it is an ok presentation, although there is no real consistency on the pages. Now I admit I can't read what it says so I don't know what your aim was, but I think it could have been done a bit better in making the pictures have the same luminancy. I don't like page 1 and 3, on page 3 I don't like the brownish colour on it and page one just has a bit of cheap looking blue. You should also let the plane pop out better, you can achieve this by using 2 pictures, one of a sky and another of an airplane which is lit better and mixing the two. What you can also do is cut the plane out of the pic you used and then pasting it in the same spot in a new layer and applying some brightness on that layer.

Great job otherwise.

This is not a tutorial... I think peter must have taken it as a tutorial...

We need that in English to rate it.
And I agree that this is not looking like a Tutorial.
Until then you will have a very low rating.

photos/compositoin are ok, but your typography is horrible. I would look into things such as "kerning", "type color", "leading" etc... and please god do not justify everything

After all these slightly confused and some critical comments. I have to say that it is a very nice piece of work. Keep trying things out, maybe look into some of the stuff other have said.

But mostly keep on designing.

The first page didn't seem especially inspiring- somewhat dull compared to the vivid colours and interesting layouts later on. Other than that, pretty!

I love your work, and used your photo "silouhett" in a slide show I made. You can view it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OSlNMWfGyU I'm still working on the credits and finding windows movie maker a little tricky that was, but it's my first movie. Hope you like it. Thanks so much
