InfluentialReviewer ,

I learned so much!

This should be required reading for anyone that needs to create great designs. It took my designs from a tepid 5 to a solid 8 or 9! I now can see good/bad design concepts on billboards while I'm driving and on postcards on my refrigerator! This book is an invaluable resource!
