Response To Peer Feedback
After reading the feedback I think I need to reseach into similar magazines more and do a post comparing other front covers and discussing the features I like from them. And then maybe do an analysis of my own front cover.
I need to improve on my front cover more, add more articles to it with better descriptions of the existing articles on the cover. I need to think about changing the layout a bit and making it look better overall.
Also, Im going to think about changing the background colour and finding a way to make the text stand out more.
I need to add a few conventions such as an issue number and maybe a plug.
From looking at other poeples work Im going to add more detail to my work and try to bring it to a better standard, like the other blogs Ive seen.
Also I need to repost my drafts with explanations and analysis, saying why Ive changed certain things and how I could improve on each one.

Overall assessment of blog: Over all I think your blog is up to date very well set out and organised. I also love the work you did for your ideas for the make up, costumes etc. And you have showed your development process of your magazine which is great.
Strengths of front cover: I like your main image you have used on you're front cover and the font used on the mast head. I like the box layout across the front of the main image. And you have followed basic conventions making your magazine seem realistic.
Areas for development and improvement: I like the colour scheme you have gone for however I think that the background colour doesn't work well with the colour of the masthead/features as the features don't stand out as much as they should. Try adding a box around certain features to highlight them making them seem of high importance to your audience.

This blog has plenty of posts and the posts are of a good quality and this is organised well so that there isn't posts all over the place.
Your front cover could have an issue number on it to make it more conventional also the groups of articles in the banner could have been at the bottom as a footer which would have been more conventional although some magazines do this. The exclusive interview story could have a description that is shorter so that you could fit more articles on the cover.The masthead also goes over part of the model's head.However overall the front cover is good and I think the text at the top is interesting.

I like the blog overall because there are lots of posts so you have obviously put a lot of thought into it.
I think that you should spread your stories out across the page a bit more because it looks a bit confusing with them all along the bottom of the page. The image on the cover is good and the spiders web on your models eye fits the genre.

The blog is a good blog and it's full of posts.
The post about hair/make up/ props and costume post is great as you have used lots of pictures and written a fair bit. I also think that the image taken for you front cover is a good image.
To change the blog I would do some more research into magazines the same as yours and pick out things you like in the front covers and talk about them. Also you could do a brief analysis on your front cover and just talk about why you chose which font, which colour etc.
The front cover could change by adding more to it. Maybe a plug?
