Editing images

I edited this image to make it look more proffesional on my feature article.

Editing

I edited my standfirst text to a different colour as I did not think it stood out enough in between the main title and the body text.

Editing

I edited my puff to make it stand out more. I made it so that the 'win' part was the biggest to sttract the audience. I also added a glow effect around the outside to make it stand out from the page more. I made the title font sans serif to help it stand out.

I also edited the main feature title using an inner and outer glow in order for it to stand out from all the other features further.
