Answer 1

Use a computer program like QuarkXpress, Photoshop, Illustrator, or Freehand (something that you can use to properly measure your document). Preferably something you know how to use already. Measure any magazine cover you have in your house and apply those measurements to your template. Go to yahoo news in the entertainment or fashion section and just copy an article title. Search for images on whatever you would like for your cover and slap it on. Or you can do it by hand with construction paper, and printed or cut out pictures and words. Just look through your favorite magazine and try to copy it as best you can changing anything you wish. Just remember the pages are different sizes as you get closer to the middle of the magazine so it folds correctly. They have to be a little smaller. I'm sorry I couldn't be more help.
