That's a good reason to take it up to 4 pages (two double sided pages)... so the photos can be bigger. I'll work on it. Jon, You are probably right.

I wonder though about the high compression of the photos in the pdf. Although they each illustrate the points made (verticals, color cast etc) they look too fuzzy and pixelated for a publication that is trying to promote the quality of photography. I know it's a trade-off between quality and file size, but I'd be happier going with better image quality and a bigger PDF before broadcasting to potential clients. Possible? Regards ........

Missing from almost all discussion is the importance, especially for the listing agent, of properly marketing homes. This is especially disturbing in the current market where qualified buyers are in short supply in many segments and the competition to reach them is fierce. Just flipping through the listings on the local MLS or on sites like Realtor.com I'm amazed how bad the photography often is as well as the copy writing and positioning of property. Thanks for your contribution to improving the situation. Someday I believe that through the natural progression up the learning curve the conventional wisdom will recognize that "converting leads" may be more effectively accomplished by demonstrating strong skills marketing homes than pungent twitter posts as important as the latter may prove to be.
