A consistent size of the preview and icon across each app will over time, become associated with the preview feature. The benefit of this is that it may become a 'industry standard' that magazines and publishers will want to have to promote their publication.
The preview will use a larger thumbnail compared to other content to grab the users attention and to alleviate the problem of other existing on screen magazine sites and applications that do not appropriately showcase the magazines front cover.
With a distinct icon, the feature can be placed off to the side whilst still being recognisable enough for users to access the feature. Desktop sites will also allow for more to be done on these previews because of the higher specifications of computers in general.
As opposed to the current layout of 032c.com's website, the magazine preview will take up a larger portion of the page. However unlike the preview features on other sites, this feature may not need to take up the entire user's screen. It could be a dynamic feature that changes preview as the user scrolls to certain parts of the article. It also reduces the need for the user to switch between reading the content and viewing it.
