• In my opinion is my school based magazine a good starter, because I never worked with Photoshop before and I was able to use a great variety of the tools that Photoshop offers.

• My front page shows an average student in the age of 17 with a lanyard and a smile on his face. He has an Asian background that is why I have chosen him, because of the Asian majority which lives in Bradford, so most of the students can relate to the magazine.

• My contents page has a more complex layout than I actually planned but it is still well structured.

• My magazine has everything what a good magazine should have, a good layout , articles which attracts the target audience and a large amount of images.
