Contents page mock ups

This was my first attempt of designing a contents page. I asked a peer to review my first attempt and this is what they said:
'You could do with more subheadings from the magazine pages. This is because there are alot more stories in a magazine and you have only listed a few of this, therefore the audience will not no where things are in the magazine.'
'There is also a lot of dead space on this contents page where you could have included more information or pictures to make the page look more professional'
'The font used on the page also needs to be smaller so that more information can be fitted onto it'

This was my second attempt of designing a contents page. I asked a peer to review my second attempt and this is what they said:
'I think that this is the better of your two contents mock ups'
'The picture you have used as the background goes well with a music magazine'
'You need to include alot more information about what is inside the magazine though so that the audience will be able to find things in the magazine which they want to read without flicking through all of the pages.'
' To improve this contents page I think you could change the colour of the blue box where the writing is to a colour which suits and blends into the picture better.'
