New Look for The Christian Index
Many of you have commented on the new look of the printed version of The Christian Index reflected in the October and November 2006 issues. Overwhelmingly, we have been receiving very positive feedback concerning the changes. While, as editor, I would love to take all of the credit for what you are seeing, I must defer to the CME Publisher, Dr. William E. George, who figured out a way to bring more color to our publication. Additionally, Dr. George has improved the quality of paper on which the Index is printed, giving our historic official organ a more professional look. Finally, I will take some personal credit for a software change used for layout and design, moving from the tried-and-true Adobe Pagemaker application to the latest industry standard, Adobe Indesign Creative Suite. Dr. George has also converted to Indesign Creative Suite on the pre-press end, ensuring a smooth transition from the document manuscript to final press. I believe the change in software produces a smoother, less edgy feel to the magazine overall. Dr. George and I are continually striving to bring you the very best publication possible. Let us know what you think. Enjoy! P.S. This is a great time to submit your articles to The Christian Index. We need to hear from you.
