The codes and conventions of magazine contents pages.

Contents pages are used to help the reader find and article and show them what is included in that issue of the magazine.

They all include five to nine different fonts, similar or the same to the ones used on the cover. Another thing that is the same as the cover is the colour scheme used. They also have the date along the bottom of the page.
A thing that is totally unique to contents pages are editors letters. These are letters written by the editor losely based around the contents of the weeks/months edition and they almost always include a picture of the editor themselves.
The actual contents themselves are catagorised under subheadings in number order. This is done to help the reader find a specific article about the subject they want to read about. E.g Closer is split into "celeb news", "real life", "we love shopping" and "we love our bodies."
Each of the contents pages i looked at also used graphics that fitted in with their colour scheme.
The images on the contents pages were arranged very differently to the images on the front cover, there isnt just one main image. They were scattered, in some sort of order, across the page with captions or numbers to link them to whatever story they are about.
The magazine mast head is at the top of the page, and either by this or at the bottom there is contact details for the magazine (number/website.)
