Key points include: - Placement of cover lines, barcodes, and other elements was improved to better accommodate the main image on the cover. - Props in photos were adjusted to be less distracting and better support the intended message. - Contents pages were improved with page numbers, clearer headings, and higher resolution photos. - Conventions like labels, types of images, and descriptions were added based on research into typical magazine design.
