a few grammatical corrections

Using GIMP

here i have the original image, which i edited with the GIMP image manipulation programme using the magic want tool to select the background and paintbrush tool i was able to make the background white, without going over the part of the picture i wanted, making the lines more crisp and look more professional.



then i was able to use the magicwand tool again to select the background, the invert the selection to select the image, which i could then copy and paste onto a pre-chosen background which is what i then used for the background of my double page spread.

and here we have the final contents page, comments please

contents page so far

the double page spread interview

front cover
