Hi there, I am Mr. Ryan O’Donnell and welcome to one of my templates. Please go to FILE and choose MAKE A COPY to have your own version of this to change and make your own magazine.
Here are a few tips as you get started.
1) To get a red border on your image, click the photo and then find these BORDER tools. Change the COLOR to red and the WEIGHT to 8px
Second Tip is to get familiar with how objects are LAYERED. By Right Clicking any object you will be able to find the ORDER and you can move objects forward and back.

Notice how this cover is different in that Washington’s head is layered on top of the title. But the title is still on top of the rest of the background. For those wanting to try this effect it will take a little more advanced work. You will need to cut out his head using a program like www.photopea.com. As you can see here, the head will be a seperate image. Forewarning, This is not for beginners!

Don’t feel like you have to center your image. With this image, I cropped it so that it both looks vertical and Washington is not centered. Also, I used a dark grey title and border. You can find this dark one and a light one on the slide at the end of this deck.
