Some thoughts:
-- LOVE the Plain Dealer one. Just out of this world.
-- Kudos to the Daily News. On a day when so many papers radically changed their format and standard design (I thought many of these were special section covers rather than A1s) the NYDN has the daily chutzpah that their tribute is powerful, yet not too far out of their element. The great thing about special events is it gives us an excuse to stretch our wings design-wise, but we shouldn't lose our identity in the process.
-- Interesting treatment for the Fort Worth paper. Not sure if I really needed the sad stories of happy people just before they died, but that's just my personal preference.
-- Thank you WaPo for spinning it forward and answering the question every normal reader is asking. I just wish there had been more heart in the intellectual coverage.
-- Too much type on the Tampa front. I like the idea, but it was so overwhelming I just skipped all of it.
Some excellent stuff - I was particularly impressed with the Posts (Palm Beach and Washington) for taking the opportunity to ask some good questions. Props to Cleveland and Tacoma for the imagery.

Nice ones. Love the Virginian-Pilot.
Saw the Chicago Sun Times in person. That blue light didn't print at all. Real muddy mess on the newsstands but looked nice here.
I also loved the simplicity of the NYDN's cover showing just the times. Very powerful. Simple.
Also getting straight to the heart of the matter were the Bergen Record of Hackensack, NJ with their: ALWAYS REMEMBER 9/11/01 wood and four small photographs and tremendous use of black space. Such an occassion warrants ordering more black ink. I was also impressed they did not push the iconic photo of the three firefighters with the flag at Ground Zero - taken by their very own Tom Franklin. All four photos kept the same order size.
Also worthy of kudos were the Wisconsin State Journal's illustration of two long burning candles on, once again, a black background - SIMPLICITY SPEAKS VOLUMES.
The best college paper - which outdid many commercial dailies was - The Battalion of Texas A&M. It's a shame no New York area college papers even came close.
Great work all around.
