2. First of all, I created my title for my
contents page on dafont.com and placed
it across the top of my page, following
conventions. I also included the name of
my magazine in large, transparent font to
act as a background. This will give a
brand to my magazine and will
constantly remind the reader of the
magazine name, making it memorable

3. After this, I created my contents list as I think this is one of the most
important features of a contents page as it helps the readers find the
page they would like to read. I created sub-headings to refine the
search for my readers, and created the page numbers in a different
style, size, and colour font compared to the rest of the writing. This was
to make it clear which pages have the main articles/information on
them

4. The next two features I placed on my page
were the editorial, and the weekly ‘Icon’
competition. I also placed behind these a box
background to fill in the white space and
make the page look more interesting and
inviting. I placed the editorial near the top of
the page as it is the first personal piece of
writing from the editor, and this is important
for the readers as it creates a connection
between the magazine and the audience. I
placed ‘Icon Image’ underneath my contents
list as it is a competition, and ‘Competitions’
is one of my sub-headings. However, I made
it clear that this was an individual competition
by making the sub-heading background pink
instead of black like the rest.

5. The two blurred-edge black boxes
underneath my editorial are the
backgrounds for my images which will
make a border for them. I have created a
background for my images to make a
more neat and professional appearance,
rather than just placing them on a plain
white background.

6. After placing my images on their
backgrounds, I placed their page
numbers beside them which also
appear in the contents list. This gives
them a preview of who the article is
about. I also inserted a quote next to
my main image which also gives
them a preview of what the article is
about.

7. The final feature I created for my
contents page was the picture of
the editor. I did this to work along
side the editorial to further create a
connection between the magazine
and the audience. The editorial
includes pronouns such as ‘you’
which implies it is personal to
them, and the picture works with
this to let the reader see who is
saying this.
