Current changes

 
I've amde a lot of changes to my magazine. I have added a bar code and taken out and replaced some of the band names with cleaner and sharper band names. I have also moved the position of the anchoring text to the middle of the page to make it more uniform. I have also made the text smaller and moved it to the side to have connotations of other magainzines.
