Progress towards final pages

So far for my work I have:

• The photographs from my cover and double page spread
• Decided on the fonts I will use in my final pages
• Chosen a colour scheme for my magazine
• Started work on my final products

What I need to do from now is:

• Find or take some more photos just for my contents
• Download or fix the fonts I'm using for the front cover in Photoshop (if not then find a good font in the default fonts)
• Create content ideas to use in my contents page
• Finish my final products

Work so far

After a bit of experimenting I finally found some colours that might look good as a colour scheme. I used all four of them to see which one looked the best and considered which would suit a rock magazine more. The green and the purple did not look that good when I tried them. The blue did look good however I'm not sure if it would suit a rock magazine. The red also looked good and might work with the genre better. Once my final products are nearly finished I might try using both of these colour schemes and seeing which looks the best. 

Also I have decided that instead of using an effect on my front cover main image, I would just leave it as the plain image as the effects looked a bit unusual and didn't work well with any colour scheme I tried. 

Currently I am having issues with using fonts from DaFont. I don't know how to download them and just type them onto Photoshop which means there will be no white background. I have screen shots of them saved, however they do have a white background and since they are slightly blurry when you zoom in It is impossible to just delete the white background with a magic wand tool as there is a white boarder around the letters which makes it look vey bad. I can erase this but it takes some time and I had problems just copying things over to Photoshop in the college and Javis Cocker magazine.

Finally I too come up with some things to put as content in my contents page. It is nearly complete, however all of the text currently just says "place holder" and the images are just purple boxes showing where they will be. As soon as I work out what to put on and get the photos I will replace these.
