Oh guys, what happened to the art direction. Small pictures, small, hard-to-read serif fonts everywhere. I’ll read it cover to cover but it ain’t a classic-looking issue in this humble reader’s opinion.
and another thing! where are the Dirt T shirts? had a look on the website but none available to purchase! [please keep with the 'Dirt' logo] – come on Dirt, get a wiggle on!
I do agrees with the poor typography… very very slight alignment issue at the offset printing… which is common… will results in illegible type… especially those with reverse colours…
I was trying some different lines and approaching things from a fresh angle…it looks like the printers got a drift on however and things got blurry. Another change of direction methinks!
Hey Jon. Good on you mate. I think it’s just that your design is so damn good is the only reason you get a bit of negative feedback. Perhaps if you aimed for mediocrity at all times like some mags you’d be fine. Props for continuing to push the layout of the mag. I have friends with no interest in bikes who comment on Dirt’s layout magic often.
Hi, when is iPad version of the November issue likely to be available? My subscription is now showing 10 issues remaining but I have only downloaded one – what’s happening guys.
Just bought the latest issue and I have to agree that in some part of the mag the text was so small that is was impossible to read…I guess size does matter after all

What is going on with the font size? Awful, sorry for the moan as it’s a cracker of an issue like always but hard work on the eyes.
Tumble and fall pro 1200 (lights) – wrong description. At least Im still reading the mag cover to cover.

Thank you for the feedback on the design.

When’s this issue going to be available on the iPad/iPhone app? Getting Dirt withdrawal symptoms here in Canada!

seriously, any updates about the iPod version? nobody likes to read “old news”!
Is the Dirt 100 free to subscribers again this year? So I know whether to buy one or wait for Postie?
@lemonadeMoney As far as I know it’s going to be a freebie again this year.
Ipad issue? Just waiting to hear back from London about what’s going on…will let you know asap!
Soz, there was a delay in uploading the Ipad/pod/pid/pea version this month. It’s usually available at exactly the same time as the magazine.

Dirt is one of my favorite things to look at/read
