Contents Analysis

 - The title is clear and stands out from the rest, it is bold and simple font, their logo is only seen once at the top as it stands out and is spaced out from the rest of everything else.
-The image is symmetric  and is iconic and also stands out and catches the eye of the reader,  the layout of the image is good as it gives the reader something too look at and scan with their eyes and to add to effect their is only one image to look at.
- The headings are simple and only relate to the features of the magazine and the main cover story.
- The background colour is just simply the image so their fore the font and text just overlap over the image and give more effect on the image.
- With the columns of the text their is only one column so this also adds effect to the picture as with less text the reader has more emphasis to look and study the picture with their eyes and think about that picture.
-The title of the magazine is in apparent view where it clearly is displayed  as “XXL” that is a house style and always in clear view for the readers too see clearly.
- The images in this magazine are different to the other magazine as their are more here than one, this is a good thing as it gives the reader something to establish their self with as it also gives something to look at, as although their are more than one image they are all iconic images of celebrities that the reader will find appealing in more ways than one.

-The headings in this are useful as they highlight both sides of the contents page by displaying “the a side and the b side”  in this their are many headings displaying the various parts of the different parts of the contents page.
-The background colour is a plain white which adds effect to the pictures and plain black text in a bold font, it aids the images in the sense that a plain blackground gives more room for the images to be studied and looked at rather than a colourful background,  this aids the text by allowing a black type of text to stand out more on the white background.
-The information in the columns are laid out only too the picture’s, so this allows you too keep your attention focused in one place and one place alone.
