Show-Me State? Show Me What Not to Do

Nice choice of a background color for the Missouri poster (black, our favorite color if you haven't noticed). That said, Missouri has committed a big no-no in the publishing biz: When cropping a photo, you do not cut off an individual at a joint. Missouri has fumbled and fumbled badly, trimming the wrists of several players in the centerpiece photo. And this from a university with one of the nation's finest journalism schools. Back to the drawing board. We hope the Tigers can do better in 2007. Thanks to John for sending this along. The list: Tulsa, Notre Dame, Texas Tech, Miami, Memphis, Arizona, North Carolina State, Oregon, Wyoming, Nevada, Kentucky, Clemson, Fresno State, Rice, Alabama, Oklahoma, Toledo, Vanderbilt-Tennessee, Washington State-Washington, Brigham Young-West Virginia-Northern Illinois, Oklahoma State, Northwestern, Louisiana State, UCLA, Ohio State, Mississippi State, Auburn, South Carolina, Arkansas, Florida State, Florida, Iowa State and USC.
