Magazine Contents Page - Step 4

After speaking to a member of my target audience, I realised that he thought the images didn't look like they really belonged on the page. He thought they didn't blend in, instead they did the opposite and looked like they didn't belong; this was changed by making the images having an 'outer glow' similar to the title of the magazine, which made it blend in. It also makes the images stand out more concentrating on the things that the target audience want to read about, and drawing them in to buy the magazine. I also decided to use the 'outer glow' tool on the headings of my categories to make them stand out too.
In the previous step I thought there was far too much empty space in the middle of the page; therefore I moved the 'features' to the top of the page and moved the pictures down making them overlap, making them feel more connected to the page. By doing this has made the space less empty and made the page relay as the writing is not just in one area of the page, it makes your eyes go all around it. This makes it look more clean and by not overlapping the pictures too much makes it less cluttered. It's simple yet stylish. The readers know they are getting their money's worth.
