Just made this page for "A Flag For All Seasons." Looking for critique, corrects, insults and free proofreading from my fellow stamp collectors.

I was a bit "tongue in cheek" there Andy, I'll stick with Steiner at the moment, but I do keep the image for information, (I'd happily mix it with Steiner as I do my own page productions) it's a bit modern for my collection at the moment, duplicates probably wont surface over this neck of the woods for a while. My piddly Vietnam collection currently weighs in at two albums, and 2.7 Kg Goodness knows what my US will end up at. Thanks for the offer.

My Ukrainian pages are in US Letter and A4, so I got you Aussies covered there at least. :-)

Seems a bit crowded to me, but I suppose the only alternative is to split into two pages. I don't know... it's probably just my OCD-ish tendencies bothering me. I think I'm having trouble reconciling the rectangles and squares.

Just redid the page and set it up like this. Tell me what you think:

I think Zuzu has a point, Steiner would have the 3 strips on 1 page and the blocks on the next.
There is an advantage, however, for study, having them all on the one page. Tough call.

My brain likes that much better! Please feel free to ignore me, but I wonder how it would look if the write up and the August 8 block were switched.
(No seriously, feel free to ignore me. I won't take it personally. I have issues with being detail-oriented and feeling the need to exhaust all possibilities.)

Your page looks very nice. There is a typo, though, at the top in the word "Seaons." I found out many decades ago that the likeliest places to miss typos were in titles or anything in large type as opposed to normal body text.

When you are making your own pages, you can design them both ways!

Ok, since I knew Zuzu would not be able to sleep till she saw what it looked like, here's the page with the description on the left. Yes, I kow all the typos are still there. Working on that next.

Don't like them new fangled stamps much, but your pages make them look almost collectable!
Just kidding.... nice looking pages, and collection. Well done!

Still waiting on Stanley Gibbons to let me use their numbers. If I don't hear from them next week, I'm just releasing what I have without numbers.

I just realized that I left Scott catalog numbers in the page. Go download it before Amos legal hunts me down.
