I went for the second, but I don't like the bleed. You're The Daily News, not Vogue.

I didn't vote for airborne Tejada in the first round but I did today.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Bleed is weird.

Tejada's almost-jaunty expression is weirder.

Still... the DW 'line is 'bleh.' Rubes.

How about wasting most of the bottom half of the front page with black ink?

[Guest d'Kong76]

Pardon my ignorance, but what is bleed?

[Edgy MD]

When the photo in a periodical, rather than being cropped into a frame, runs over the edge of the page.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Thanks, I just learned something NOW!!

Yeah, I don't like that either. I voted for the Post page, though, because flawed as it is, it's better than the News page. I think David Wright should be on the left side of the page and THE SHIP! should be on the right. I don't like how David is facing the edge of the page.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Both of these covers are front covers, interestingly enough.

I like both of them so I went with the more Met-positive of the two events.

Exactly this^. I didn't know what a bleed was either. I bleed like a pig.
