Congrats to vi-master for winning the Jagfest issue #6 cover design contest.
due to problems the issue will go up tomarrow (th fonts wasn't emended on my copies)

[Dan Iacovelli]

quick question for #7,
the original version: had two columns layout and of course this was 8.5 by 11 size.
the new layout is smaller,but I can prob still do 2 columns.
I might just do it normal 1 column.
any thoughs?

Well here are June 2nd (about 11 days till somebody's 43 b-day ) and now that I'm mostly caught up with most of website work
Jagfest issues #1 and #2 design contest have officially restarted web page is now updated.
also a bit off topic: both Flip Camcorder and VGS Program contest has ended(the VGS program contest was won by paul zimmerman,I modified his
cover for a better look on cafepress) as for the Camcorder contests we got no entrees,so I did those myself. and they are currently on sale.

ok I am close to reaching the mark on the anniversary issue, so with that in mind be sure to watch the video cast tomorrow night at 8pm ct at http://www.ustream.t...vc-live-podcast
or go to the news page at the website for the announcement.
(small hint: it's not a new product,but it is related on how the anniversary issue going be sold,and maybe a special discount as well)

[Dan Iacovelli]

for those who missed the show last night:
the announcement is the following starting today at noon until july 18th
I will be taking request(not pre-orders) for the Jagfest tenth anniversary package
which includes: The Tenth Anniversary issue of the Jagfest issue (estimated release is August)
and the return of Jagfest tour shirt(which will have a new design on the front).
the estimated cost is $30.00 but for those request the package will get an e-certificate for $10.00
from news stand which will be used toward the package. Once the package is available
I will send the e-certificate to people who request the package.
to request a package: e-mail me at atarivideoclub@yahoo.com subject: Jagfest package request
and I will put you on the list for it.

some good news,
I have extended the deadline for issue #1 and #2 covers till October 1st
Sorry to say I won't be taking pre-orders for the anniversary issue since I haven't gotten
any when I announced it. but when I really come close to completing the issue then I will restart it.

[Dan Iacovelli]

Vi has sent sent me his covers for #1 and #2.
I would like remind everyone else that deadline is October 1st .
on another subject: I'm thinking of doing another design contest in the near future for small posters (11 by 17 size) for the Jagfest On tour section.
the posters will then be shown and sold in limited supply at MGC and VGS.(Jagfest issues 1 to 6 will only be displayed,but I will be taking orders
for them, the anniversary issue will be displayed and sold at limited quantities though).
any thoughts?
(if your wondering about t-shirts, there won't be a design contest for that because I've already decided the new design for that which will debut
with the anniversary issue,it will retire the current design and match with the new covers)
