The document discusses preferences for magazine cover designs. It notes that one cover places the masthead in front of the photo while the other is behind. It prefers the masthead in front to be the main focal point as the photo typically takes up most space. Artist names are displayed differently on each cover, with one being larger and in all caps while the other is smaller but still in caps to show importance. The simpler design of the second cover is preferred overall. The cover should have more than one focal point but not be overly busy, so toning down elements slightly while maintaining multiple focuses is suggested.
