There’s something different about the July YM, on sale on Thursday 15th June.

For as long as most of us can remember, YM’s cover has had a unique textured surface called “Sandgrain”. This month however, as an experiment, we have produced a glossy cover. We think it gives the cover shot extra clarity and makes the colours more vivid.

We would like to know what our readers think. Should YM stick with the sandgrain or go glossy?
