Every Wednesday night I go downtown to piss on the floors of public bathrooms. On Thursdays I do it in a dress.

I think the starring comes from visibility: recent issues are still on people's minds, so they're discussed more. And I started contributing in issue 010, so my awareness of the magazine mostly follows from that point forward. Regardless, look at how many more favourites are listed from 001-008 compared to afterwards. It's certainly not a uniform opinion that &amp has improved in quality--I've seen anons say the opposite.

My interest is in making the best-of a little more subdued with simpler, consistent typography (partially because I don't have editor's design skills). I think this suits the ideal of being an issue dedicated to the true "meat" of &amp, which is the written material. Someone earlier suggested going with a typewriter-inspired monospace font. Double columns. I'd like there to maybe be simple illustrations or photographs to accompany pieces (I draw, and another anon offered help with illustrations). Prussia got back to me and offered to help with design.

I had the idea that we might borrow some elements from the Futuba/Yotsuba themes, incorporating the colours and/or fonts subtly, but I don't want it to be too on the nose. Pic related is a very rough idea for what I mean.

Sometimes the format of certain pieces was better than others (some not so great pieces were uplifted by good design work as well), so I'd like it to be fairly uniform for the best-of, letting the pieces speak for themselves, so to speak.
