Cover types
1. Early Magazine Covers- Almost always paintings, very religious, high moral.
2. The poster Cover- One big picture, no border. small text, less text, the text doesn't interfere with the photo. The picture has to be really good or very recognizable. Disadvantages: the cover doesn't really help you to tell you what the magazine is about.
3. Pictures Married to type- The words help the photo, does not interfere with the picture.advantage: you can see the photo more. The words and the picture go together. Disadvantages: You don't know what else is in there and there aren't many entry points into the magazine.
4. In the Forest of Words- Tons of text on the picture. Also lot's of colors, different font and sizes. Disadvantages: too many words, too much to look at, also covers your photos.
