The magazines that won best issue and magazine of the year, congrats, wish we all had the budgets to do outstanding design work and get the best photographers and illustrators, but when most of us have to use stock images and have very tight budgets, we do the best we can and can't compete with high end b2b magazine. It would be great to see them do the same magazine on tight budgets (like most have $1500 or less for an entire issue for photography and illustration) and come up with the same results, bet it can't be done. Magazine can look great when you have big budgets and can pay illustrators and photographers $1000 plus for only one shot, it just isn't fair to judge them in the same category as the ones who don't have big budgets, at least on consumers books they are playing on an even field.
Umm... No they're not. Ask around.
Try getting one to match the headline! hahahahah
