good work!

shame the cover isn't visible in the preview gallery though no?

when i clicked i'd hoped to see a preview of the cover and then the pages 
inside thereafter. FM also has a strong/unique logo.. would be 
good to tie that into the content..

also it seems that every second page is blank? perhaps a glitch with the 
gallery software.
