    No, I'll never turn to the dark side! You've failed your Highness. I'm Left Justified, like my father before me.

    I think you need to check out your kerning. The spaces between your letters seem to vary line-to-line. While yours doesn't make it read incorrectly, it looks poor. Here's an example of very poor kerning.

    On the upside, your graphics look really nice and I like the colour scheme.

    Check spelling, you've got "n" instead of "in" (second line)

    Looks good though! Well Done x

    Actually I was looking at the earlier drafts, when I saw your revised ones it seems to be fixed. One thing, it says; 'Ben now excels n the stupidity department', you missed off the 'i' from 'in'.

    OK. Great, error corrected. I redid the spine, removed the logo and changed the size of text, looks a bit less messy and easier to read.

    Here is the new spine:
