"Your book
is certainly coming in useful. I was frustrated because
I couldn't get my brochure cover uploaded to the printer
- it kept timing out. But then I read your book, and
realized the cover needs serious changes. So it was
a good thing I didn't have it uploaded and being printed
already! Now I've got another chance to fix it up based
on some of your suggestions." |
