1) Buying a good cube is not a step for learning how to solve the cube
2) You skip cases - edges flipped, etc.
3) Toward the end, a lot of the graphics are not lined up where they should be relative to the text
4) if you're going to include a notation section, a written description should be included, not just pictures.
5) The cube graphics - especially the big one at the start - need to be better quality (i.e. straight lines, no extra pixels floating around, etc). There are online cube generators that will create high quality graphics for you.
That's okay, but if somebody is learning to solve a cube for the first time they won't care too much, and they certainly shouldn't delay their learning due to the author's opinions.I am leaving it there anyway because I am anti-Rubik's
How do I put such a thing in without breaking my rule of 8 pages, should I just make an extra bit or something?Instead of adding cases, add a troubleshooting guide at the end. Include things like: How to solve the daisy if one edge is flipped
What to do if one corner is not in the right slot or is twisted
What to do if one edge if flipped
What to do if one edge is in the wrong slot
How to tell if the cube is unsolvable in the last few steps, and how to fix that
Also add a section on how to get faster (The are much faster ways to do Step 4, and fingertricks are key.)
It's designed to print into an A5 booklet so the text would be smallerMake the text smaller.
Well, that's up to you. But it's still not a step in solving the cube.I am leaving it there anyway because I am anti-Rubik's
It appears to depend on what device the document is viewed on. Looked fine on another I tried.they are all lined up properly for me so there must be some formatting problems
Explaining that it means clockwise and counterclockwise is helpful. And it would be a lot more useful than including a step that isn't solve-related at all (the cube suggestions).I am not sure how useful that would be, considering most people learning how to solve a cube just look at the images anyway.
Fair enough. I would still suggest upgrading the images. I mean, the main large one has speckles all over it.I want a stickerless cube in the images and alg.cubing.net does not provide that
