Magazine fonts.

I have asked people, from a range of ages, which font they'd like best for a magazine.
The results of the highest scored are as followed:
  • Font 5, 5 votes.
  • Font 8, 4 votes.
  • Font 6, 2 votes.
  • Font 3, 2 votes.
 Fonts 5 and 8 are the most popular. Seeing as front 5 only got one more vote than font 8, I asked a few more people to decide which they liked best 5 or 8. Number 5 was the overall favourite, so I think this would be the font I'd use for my magazine.
 I like number 5 because when you look at it, you'd think of a pop magazine, it's different to other magazine fonts and I find it very interesting. It would catch the attention of people when they're looking at magazines and also it was the majority of the people I asked favourites, so it's more likely others will like the font also.
 I'm not sure about what colours to do my font in yet.

    Think about the readability of both fonts - 8 is nice and clear with a modern rounded feel; 8 may possibly be a bit harder to read because of the bars??? How does 8 suggest "pop"? what image does it create??May be worth typing both out at masthead size and seeing what they look like from a distance. Any ideas about colour?
