This was the original masthead for my front cover, but I felt that it did not stand out as much as it could do, and so I tried out many different techniques to get it to stand out, and in the end I produced this.

I used GIMP 2.0 to create a boarder around my masthead so that it stands out more from the background. It is only a subtle change, but I feel that it makes it stand out from the page more and be more attractive to the audience. I decided to make it with a concrete effect, which goes with the colour scheme and the rock genre of the magazine.

This was what it looked like when I had finished. It has a gap where the main image goes, but I edited that later on. This makes the masthead look more professional, and the overall front cover more attractive to the target audience.
