Revision

I'm posting the table of contents side-by-side so that the changes are easily visible. I matched the line color with the text color so it looks more official. I changed the picture to the left because it seemed to look more like a filler than a meaningful picture. The picture was of girls soccer so that there weren't just guys soccer pictures in the magazine. I added the black box behind the text so that the text was easier to read.

Feedback/Revisions

After presenting my project to my peers I got the following feedback. 

Cover:
- The "Starts Today" text blends in too much with the background
- Make the sub-text a little neater
- See if you can get another photo that has better reolution

Table of contents:
- The shades of orange are a little different so trying to make them all match
- The text in the TOC needs to be arranged so the space is used more efficiently
- Text is hard to see so enlarge text

Article:
- Put page numbers on the articles
- Make page numbers correlate to the TOC and flat plan
- Put descriptions on all pictures
- Vary the type of pictures in the article
- Solid Color page might be too expensive

I plan to try to fix a lot of these problems as much as I can. I know that some of these will be harder to do than others like matching the font color with some background colors but I'll try my hardest to do so. I also know that the change of the solid orange background might not be a big deal because if I post digitally like most magazines are then I won't have to worry about the cost of ink.

Use of Conventions

My magazine incorporates the athlete social group in our school. I also am reaching out to the parents of the student athletes. I know that the parents would want to be apart of the athletics going on in the school. In my magazine I used certain conventions that other sports magazines use. I incorporated the original "Sailor Seasonal" sign on my pages like ESPN does to brand their product. I also did not over complicate the cover with words like magazines Soccer Bible and Surf Magazine.
