Signalnoise 2009 giveaway

I have gotten quite a few messages from people in different parts of the world who were not able to get a copy of Computer Arts magazine #156, which includes my tutorial. Whether it is an over-priced import or simply not available due to geography, it’s unfortunate either way.

So to kick off the new year, I would like to have a contest to give away my own extra copy of the magazine, along with the free calendar included with issue 156 and a couple of Signalnoise bookmarks. I even hand-signed my tutorial :)

All you have to do is comment on this post, and tell me where you are from. Remember to include your email in the comment form so I can contact the winner. Comments will be left open until Friday, January 9th and the winner will be announced the following Monday. You only need to comment once as multiple comments will be deleted.

Good luck!

Update: For those who don’t already know, I am located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Thanks for the question, Marvin!

Update 2: Comments have now been closed, thanks to everyone who entered! The winner will be announced this coming Monday, so stay tuned.

  65. Hey James, nice idea.
    Really would like to get a copy of isue 156 as I ain’t had the change to get one yet…

    Btw, the link to this site in your latest Flickr post doesn’t point to this site. I guess because of a little typo…

    Even if I don’t win the price it’s a great idea !!
    Thanks for your work and I hope, 2009 will be a great year for The art of James White // Signalnoise

  74. i’m from Argentina, the city is Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. i’m a big fan of your work. it would be really great to get the magazine, cause is almost imposible to me to get any kind of digital art magazine for a price that is not the half of my monthly income.

    well, thanks anyway !

  84. I’m from Daedalus, on the far side of the Moon! We love you way out here also! Your designs remind me of my fathers art.

    Salutations!

  86. Hey there! Great to see this little comment (and great to read a blog by another Canadian! ^^)

    I hail from the other side of the country – currently, the cold white winter wonderland called Edmonton Alberta.

  89. I am Marvin and I am from the illustrious Oregon Coast (Newport, Oregon, specifically). Where are *you* anyway?

  93. Hi James
    I’m so happy with this news! I follow your work everyday more than a year, it really seem fabulous to me and you are such an inspiration to me.
    I’m from Argentina and my favourite period of your work is Retro Cosmic and I’ve never commented on here before because I don’t manage this language well, and a friend is translating for me. But when I saw this, I just couldn’t stand here without doing a thing and lose the opportunity to get something like this.
    Good Luck to everyone and although I win it or not I’ll be fine just with the fact of keeping seeing your creations through this.
    Best wishes and happy new year!

  98. Hey there,

    i’ve seen your work in a lot of places, and always enjoyed the way you achieve your results.
    The way u made the O-series for instance was quite refreshing, simple, yet an awesome result with similar impact.
    Love the way you combine your colours and would love to learn more about how you make your works.

    Regards, David, The Netherlands.

  107. Hi, I’ve recently connected to your Flickr profile and enjoy the work i see there. You’re a busy guy. I’m inspired.

    I’m from Langley, British Columbia now but grew up in the Congo DRC.

  118. Hi!
    I was realy enviuos when I saw your tutorial on Computer Arts!

    Keep up the good work.

    Ciao from Milano, Italy.

  127. You are an inspiration to all! What a refreshing visual stimulation when I look at your work. Oh and my bday is the next day after this drawing :crossing fingers:

  133. Fantastic work! Consider yourself bookmarked.

    I’m in Melbourne, Australia and remember fondly travelling through Canada (including Halifax) in 1992.

    :D

  135. Thanks for this tut James. What’s nice about it is that you can use the technique to do so many unique pieces. it can give you a whole new perspective on how you go about creating your works. Keep inspiring!

  144. Hello, I’m from Cracow in Poland.
    Magazine here is sooo overpriced – it costs approximately 15 times more than a BigMac – to give you the imagination.

  145. I’m Francis, from Seattle, WA, USA. I think the third person from Seattle to comment. =D

  147. i’m from portugal, i tried to find the magazine but i didn’t have any luck…

  149. Hi there,

    I’m from all the way down under in the land of OZ, raised in the 80s as a kid I guess it is natural to be drawn into retro art. As soon as I saw this piece I was struck by that sense of “awesomeness”.

    It really brought me that sense of nostalgia and encapsulated many aspects of that era, all those funky sounds in an arcade, the crazy visions and sci-fi art of the year 2000. (Where’s my teleport and being transported to work in a vaccume chute?)

    That my friends isn’t something that can be easily felt when we are constantly bombarded as modern day citizens. Thanks James, not just for the inspiration, it’s a Rejuvenation.

  150. From sunny old Florida. 18 years old, struggling graphic designer, tour manager, booking agent, promoter. I dabble in a little bit too much, I’d say. Keeps me from what I truly want to do. your work’s a big inspiration though. I wish I had more time to put towards my own projects.

  151. Hey James,
    I am from Portland, OR, USA. I hope you get some more of those Solid Gold Bomb prints in. Every time I go to purchase them, they are sold out. I have some bad luck! :)

  154. Hey James, im big fan of your style, And youre one of my biggest inspirations for my designing style. So, thank you so much for every piece of art you put out!

    I’m from Guadalajara México.

    Greetings and happy new year

    It’s funny how all the readers comment on contests, even though most people don’t comment on the regular posts! Humans are funny creatures, aren’t we!

    By the way, I’m working on a project today for a client that’s loosely based on the layout of your tutorial. I’m actually using a Photoshop brush I created for the angled lines, instead of the higher-quality Illustrator assets. Mainly because I felt lazy!

    Keep up the good work, man!

    Greetings

  162. Hi James, already got the mag, so don’t pick me (not often I’ll say that).

    But as a regular reader, I’ll put the plug in for my home town of Dunedin, New Zealand (although I stumbled upon you while living in the next best city in the world Vancouver).

    Keep up the great work and happy new year.

  163. Hi James,

    Thanks for looking out for the people who couldn’t get the issue. Big fan of your work. :D

    I’m from Ferrara, in the North East of Italy, “near” Bologna (or Venice).

    Cheers

  166. I’m from North Bay, Ontario (woo canada :P). That’s so awesome of you to give away all this stuff.
