Our magazine masthead is designed to interact with your artwork. So when designing please keep the template in mind when composing your design. If you are unsure, contact Kris (kris@krisvandesande.be). He will gladly assist you. The spot color of the magazine will be matched to your artwork. You can always suggest colours. Be Bold! If the top area of your art is too bright, we will add a gradient below the logo to make it more legible.
Please deliver the cover with two separate PNG files. One of the interacting element on top, one of the complete background. These files should not include any part of the template.
You are allowed to sign your artwork on the lower left, within the margins.
Do not add crop marks or any other marks to your artwork.
Fill the entire template with art, but put nothing of value in the red parts, as they will be cut off.
