college magazine research and planning

In my college magazine so far i have added a picture of a young male with tattoos across his chest. The background is a bright green colour so he as the image stands out and makes it eye catching.
I have simply named it COLLEGE as this is where it is going to be sold and what it is going to be about. The story's i have added around the edge include The big protest, exam stress, and a story to go with the main picture, about tattoo's. These story's relate to the target audience as they will be the people affected by the issues the most, for example exam stress, as there are exams coming up in January.
I have given my college magazine a more edgy look to attract more people to read the magazine and increase product sales as it makes it makes you want to read it because it looks interesting.
To create this front cover i shall be using Abobe InDesign CS5 and Adobe Photoshop CS5. I shall be using InDesign to structure the front cover and Photoshop to edit the images i use.
