Stunning magazine cover

I love the cover of the current issue of Donna Hay magazine. Kudos to all involved.

    Interesting , I thought was a bad move .It is very hard to see the actual name on the magazine , I had one customer stand right in front of it and asked where it was and that was with 3 facings and just below eye level

    I would say its a bad design, and this edition sale is very low due to the bad front cover.since its a collector special edition and for 2 months sale should have sold out quickly.
    Atleast, the title should have been a contrast color(glittering blue) to white so that its eye catching.
    the supermarket which used to sell heaps to food magazines doesnt even sell 20% of their normal sale.
    the designers working on computer should imagined how it will sit on shelfs than just seeing on computer screen.

    Same thing here. It seems to be almost invisible on the shelf and hasn’t sold at all.

    Same here, we usually sell a few but this issue has only sold 1 so far and the customer had to ask where it was because she just couldn’t see it even though it was eye level with 4 facings.

    Sorry Mark I’m with the others here, dull cover, bad sales for us also.

    I think her Fresh and Light series have great covers.

    Food magazines need cover photos that make you want to go straight home and cook!
