Made this up for BWR ... obviously the event page can be changed to whatever event we're at. Check it out.

It's nice; seems like a place to start for people who are new to beyblade/MFB. However I am not crazy about the Beypoints logo...
Looks ok...seems like it`s missing....something. What happened to that Pegasis and i lol`d at "hi-tech." But it was very well written nice job, Brad!
Hmmm the front page is in some weird language on mine :o

I'd say just change the fonts around, specially the font that shows all the info, a bit plain. And maybe cut down on the logos and big pictures or make them so they don't take up all of the page.

same.

The pamphlet looks great. This will be a really efficient way to introduce people to beyblade and WBO.
But yeah, I also feel like there's something missing......it's kind of frustating right now because I can't figure out what it is.

For the system section, there's the "4-layer" system but what about the HWS.
Some of the images appear like they have not been well cut.
^^I also noticed that. The MFB system picture and a couple of the images used in the 'type' section.
Unhappy

Two days work wasted, I suppose!

The "front page" is just placeholder text. And all the images look fine on my end ... as for "something is missing," that isn't very helpful. There's only so much room for information to be displayed and I've fit the important information in there. Keep in mind this is only supposed to be an introduction.
Aqua mentioned this,

They aren't anymore! The HWS should be mentioned.

The information is organized well, but it is kind of boring with a pure white background.

it's a pamphlet. more ink costs money

i didn't mention HWS simply because this method is a lot easier to get the most important information across in the most space-efficient way possible. it's not hard to discover later "oh, there's another plastic layer on some of these"
You should use Kai's HWS Parts Diagram instead of the current one. Also Brad, imagine the let down
"WOW, full Metal Attack Rings!"
"There called Wheels and theres some plastic on them."
"Oh"

Good point. It's just that maybe with some sort of blue or orange background, the style of the WBO would be represented better. But, if we're trying to save money, what you've done is best.

Fair enough.
Maybe you can add a border on a couple of the pages?
With a pamphlet I think a pure white background is one of the best ways to go about it. It's easier on the eyes, and that way the person would actually read the thing. We're trying to convey info, so this does an effective job. The only thing that stands out as a little off are some of the images. A couple look like they need a bit of touching up. Otherwise I like it.
Yeah, I agree. The coloured background would be: 1) More costly; 2) Distracts from the actual conent of the pamphlet.

Is it possible you've zoomed in too much? Remember this is for print, not web. Which images need cleaning up?

It was at 85%, but even reducing it to 66.7% on a 15" screen I noticed some stuff. The ones in particular that stand out are the image with Storm Pegasis and Dark Wolf, and the Beypoints Button. The first image shows signs of choppy cutting on the borders, some parts stick out a bit more than others. The second image (Beypoints Button) also seems a but fuzzy on the edges.

I realize that the button might not show once printed (not sure though), but I am pretty sure that the image with Storm Pegasis and Dark Wolf will.

I hope I'm not being too nit picky.

You realize this is a "torn paper" effect, right?
No, no I did not...

I just demonstrated my vast breadth of knowledge on the subject, didn't I?
Even if it is intentional, I think it looks rather odd and does seem like it's just badly cut.
Well, I really like it. :\ Kinda awkward that there's no HWS information but oh well. The whole thing looks good and apart from maybe HWS I don't think there's anything that needs to be added. *thumbs up*

Though It's a little depressing how much Latin I read before I realised it was placeholder text. XD
I think the pamphlet was great!
I like the pamphlet, but I do think that the torn-paper effect makes it look a little sloppy. The layout is fine though, I don't think it would be necessary for a colored background, ink costs way to much. Over all though, I think it looks good.
I think it needs a border/trim along the bottom and top edges of the pamphlet. Just take the base blue of the website's banner before the battling Beyblade and logo.

The second pages looks great, but I think the first page looks a bit odd. The three different logos, all at the top in different styles and colours really clash together. It think if they were positioned differently on the page, or perhaps shrink/enlarge some of the logos, the presentation would prove to be kinder on the eyes.

And if you're not concerned with ink, I'd incorporate the website's background onto the background of the pamphlet.

Lastly, why the HELL are you writing in Latin?
brad great pamplet. but i what about the 5 layer ?
