What programs can I use for my magazine cover?

Adobe Photoshop
Pro's
Will be able to get really professional results out of this program. Most professional magazine companies use Photoshop in some way. With photoshop, you can blur the background of an image, cut out images, apply various effects and join many different elements together, as layers.

However, this program is quite a handful, and can be complicated at times. On the other hand, I already know the basics of photoshop, so that wouldn't exactly be much of a problem to me.


Microsoft Publisher
Pro's
This program is very easy to use, and can quickly create a reasonably good magazine cover. It also has a number of preset designs, making the whole process even more simple.

Because the program is very simple, the result you get out of it is usually very simple. In addition, if I were choose from one of the many preset designs, then my magazine cover wouldn't be original
