What does gloss mean in web design?

Question

Adobe Photoshop

In the TOR I met with such a requirement, I quote:
"I like that the page looks like a glossy magazine - you need to use the same effect" I
didn’t wait for the details, except perhaps : /i/kXgIoMmarXcrT " What is meant by this very "glossy effect"?

Answer 1

Well, it's written in Russian
This is not a "gloss effect", it's just a desire for the page to be designed according to the principles of design in magazines. The example given is not the most beautiful, the layout is terrible, but remotely understandable - frames, pictures in a non-standard mask, etc. Just take a few magazines, see how they are laid out and do it by analogy.
You can ask the client to show his favorite spreads in magazines to better understand what he likes.

Answer 2

I think they meant the layout of the site in the style of a magazine ...
