"Artists of the Century" - This is separated from the rest of the page by having a contrasting grey background. There is a long list of sub-headings with the names of each artist on them (page numbers accompanying them for easy finding) highlighted in red. This both represents the significance of these people and the article as well as showing value for money. There is also a capitalized "PLUS:" in red at the end to further emphasize this point.
Layout - The layout loosely resembles three columns with a header/footer section having its own landscape style. The sections are divided by position, background colour and even images (the double page preview separating Q Review and the Regulars section).
There are also small Q logos/icons in the corners of the pages to maintain a uniformity that "this is Q magazine". There are black backgrounds on the page numbers too, to make them stand out.
Images - There is a small version of the front cover on towards the top right, linking the contents page to the front cover (and to the issue number, highlighted in red font beneath it). It is also here to link to the content within the page (the grey box has all the information relating to this). There is also a preview of a double page spread to give insight into the magazine.
Header/Heading - The "Q Contents" simply has a red background adorned with the usual white Q symbol and a black font for "contents". This is so that it doesn't detract from the actual content of the page.
Colours - This page has a white background adorned with colours where necessary to attract attention and easily direct readers to where they want to be. The artists on the front cover are within the grey table and the regulars are on a white background, highlighted by red underlines on the headings. The text on the "Q Review", a main feature of the magazine, is shown as important by the red text.
Graphics - There are a few simple thick red lines separating up the sub-headings on the regulars section, but otherwise lacks the "grabbing" techniques (for attention) as seen on front covers.
Text/Image Ratio - This is quite a text heavy contents page, with only a few small images appearing. This could give the impression of lots of content for your money.
