Overall, the existing publications i have gathered have given me a large idea as to what would appeal to young girls in a magazine. Bold colours that go together is a strong factor in all the magazines, and the pictures on the front are usually strong and interesting. The mastheads are always at the top of the magazine, in large writing. Capital letters are also commonly used. I would like to do further research into mastheads to give me more of an idea what i would like mine to be like, as there is so much varitey. I have noticed that in several of the magazines i researched, the 'plus' sign was used. This gives an effect that the magazine contains lots of information and i would like to use this on my front cover.
