Front page improvements

The first image shows my old front page, and the second image shows my improved front page. 

I have added cover lines to fill the blank space. This shows what is inside the magazine and attracts readers to look inside. 

I have made the main article's font size bigger. This frames the picture and also becomes easier to read from further away, attracting the audience to read it. 

I have increased the font size of the masthead and selling line. These need to be clearly visible, as the name of a magazine is one of the first thing's a reader looks at. I have moved the image to the layer in front of my masthead. This connotes that it is a reputable magazine, and that the name is easily recognisable and well known.

I have moved the price and issue number to the bottom of the page next to the barcode, which subtly makes the reader look at the whole page to see the price. This is because the large masthead and direct gaze attracts the reader's eyes, and they need to look down the page to find the price.
