To finish off the layout of the contents page, I chose to ask for people's opinions on what they thought might need improving. The major thing which needed editing was the small empty space in the top left hand corner (shown in the first image). Also, the font I used for 'Step Up', appearing at the very top of the page, didn't quite fit nicely and looked odd. With this feedback, I came up with the idea of copying the font used for the masthead on the front cover of the magazine, to also be used for the small 'Step Up' text in the contents page. After, I turned the text to be sideways and moved it to the empty space. This instantly made my contents page look fuller. Completing the contents page, I increased the size of the text saying 'contents' so that it would be more in line with the name of my magazine (shown in images two and three).
Furthermore, to improve the college magazine contents page even more, I changed the font of the text to the same as one I had used for a coverline on the front cover, I did this because it makes both the front page and contents to link and easily be identified as being from the same magazine.
