Design Checklist

Gather together all the material for your article and decide what is essential and what's optional.
Give each page a main story or a main picture that will catch the readers' attention.
Give your best picture a prominent place on the page.
Scatter other pictures around the page so they don't compete for attention.
Vary the shapes and sizes of your pictures.
Check the eye movement of the page to make sure it's clear where the reader should read next.
Make sure every picture has a caption and every story has a headline.
Use lines and boxes sparingly, and only if they are needed to make seperation clear.
