So, I need my flist's help to reach a final conclusion when it comes to this most important matter of all matters in the whole wide world! 

Basically, which cover do you like better? 


The first one is FHM UK and the second one is FHM Australia. 

On one hand, with FHM UK you get to enjoy the plaid shirt in all its magnificent unbuttonedness (and her glorious boobs), but on the other hand the second cover has a slightly tinted background which is pleasant to look at, plus the text seems to work better overall (note how it follows Naya's contrapposto way of standing). 

I can't seem to make up my mind. 

...... Yes, this is important and I'm serious!

• Link: Am I the only one who thinks it looks like Olivia is an Italian Mafioso here or something? "We'll make him an offer he can't refuse-ah." Lol! Bottom line: I love Anna's face forever and ever, amen! 

• It's kind of eerie, actually...

FHM Australia is better - it's not even a question for me. The first looks like it was thrown together by some college kids. The text looks like amauter hour, and the whole dear in the headlights look *can* be sexy, but it's not cover material, it just looks like a still from a badly shot porno with awful lighting. The aussie version is fucking classy. It hits all the right buttons aesthetically. The colors and text on the second one aren't fighting Naya, they're working with her. Dat swagger. Unf.

/takes this shit way too seriously, apparently.

it just looks like a still from a badly shot porno with awful lighting. Not gonna lie, this made me snort. ;D I think maybe that's what they went for, maybe? Notice that it reads "sexiest cheerleader" where the FHM Australia has "meanest cheerleader," so...

But yeah, I lean more towards the Australian FHM too. ;)

* that is the 'excited-and-quite-amused' type of snort an animal can make, not the 'I-don't-agree-with-you' type of snort, just to clear up. ;P

Lolll!

I've seen that gif before with the caption: Bitch, I'm Fabulous. So, clearly, you're fabulous. You're llamafabulous. ;D

FHM Australia is by far the better cover.

My vote goes to the Aussies.

Lol, I think we have a winner here -- and I couldn't be happier to hear we all agree. ;D

I like the first cover better. my eyes dont like the faded colors in the second one.

Ah-ha, interesting. :) How about the way she's standing? Do you like the first one or the second one better?

From: [identity profile] hoshinekoyasha.livejournal.com
the second one doesnt look like shes shes awkwarding leaning forward. I like the ways shes standing in that better. I just really hate the colors...

Date: 2011-10-16 07:12 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] hyena-gal.livejournal.com
Ah, okies. ;D Yes, I think the contrapposto one works better too.

Hehe, I don't really have anything against the colours - it gives it a slightly 'dreamy/hazy' quality or how to describe it? I'm still of the opinion that the text works better on the Australian FHM cover.

I agree the text does look classier on the second one but i really hate that fucking red they've turned her shirt too

Date: 2011-10-16 07:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] hyena-gal.livejournal.com
Lol, yes, I agree with that! The shirt looks much better when it isn't so red -- it's too red, really. I think that's why they changed the colour of the FHM behind her.

Yeah..
its like they were tiring to hide the lesbian flag plaid or soemthing

Ahahaha, *yes*, but obviously they failed miserably. ;P

"Quick, let's hide the gayness by editing the pic in Photoshop!"
"Did it work? Is the gay gone?"
"Erh... yeah, sure. Off to print!" Lulz.

First cover totally looks more gay then the second cover >.>

It does, it does. Maybe that's why those guys felt like they had to make absolutely clear that "Naya only *plays* a lesbian character, so she totes only lieks guize in RL, lolll, girl-on-girl is hottttt, durrr, but only when it is done to make men happy!" in the article? <.<

-sigh- I guess you don't buy the magazine for the articulate and clever things written in it.

Wow i cant believe they wrote something like that ...

Well, that was the gist of it, but then again it's not for nothing that it's called "For Him Magazine" - so, humour only guys will get or something? <.<

Reminds me of something I've just read -- there's an interview with Taylor Lautner where the interviewer apparently asked him whether Gus Van Sant and Dustin Lance Black 'came unto him' during a dinner the three of them had (regarding something business-related). Seriously, wtf? o_0

Yep. If it's true, then -- holy shit, way to be unprofessionnal, dude.

I know. I cant believe stuff like that is published. Sounds like something that should be on a blog

From: [identity profile] hyena-gal.livejournal.com
Yeah, not that it'd be good, but at least it wouldn't get printed if that's what's happened. In any case, even if it were a joke or something, it was still in bad taste. :-/

I like the UK version better, because I think the colours look nicer and there is just something about Naya's face and eye in it, they draw me in.

Date: 2011-10-16 04:58 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] hyena-gal.livejournal.com
Her face is very lovely, isn't it? ;D

The colours don't clash, that's true.

I prefer FHM UK :)

Ah, okies. :) And bottom line: Naya Rivera's a very attractive girl no matter which way we look at it, y/y. ;3

Very true! I just prefer the style of the UK cover, I'm not too keen on the colouring used for the Australian one.

Haha, fair enough. ;)

I do like the picture on the Aussie cover, but i have the UK one so can't justify buying that one too....... i don't think i can anyway..... if the picture from #2 was in the style of cover #1 it would be better though!! :)

Ah, so a little mixing, huh? ;D Yeah, I can see it. :)
