Contents Page.

This is my final contents page of my College Magazine, again made on Microsoft Publisher.
I decided to use a blue green text mixed with a black text. I decided to alternate the two colours in the mast head as I think this gave it a different look. I again used the text 'Tahoma' to make it tie in with my front cover. I then changed the writing to 'Century Gothic' to give my contents a different look. I carried on with the black and greeny blue text throughout my contents page so that it gave it a neater look rather than using lots of different colours. I decided to use two columns for my contents, with one having a main image on college in it as you can see above. I then decided to copy some of the fashion magazines i'd seen and use three images to cut off the list of pages from the editorial note. I think doing this breaks up my text a bit and makes it look less like all writing. I decided to include a 'Note From The Editior' as I think this personalises the magazine a bit more and gives more information about what goes on behind the scenes. At the very bottom of the page I also decided to write the name of the magazine, issue number and email address as I think this would help if someone was just seeing the contents page. It also lets people know how they can get involved in the making of the magazine.
The three smaller images I decided to use are of students and one of the college as I think this breaks them up a bit and shows students around college more. I didn't edit them as, as with my front cover image I wanted them to look natural rather than overly photo shopped.
I think i'd improve this by using a more coloured background as I think the blank one looks a quite plain.
