Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how great of a job Tanner Garlick is doing with the illustrations for each podcast episode. Each one is really fun!

@rcartwright Tried that on both the phone app and via playback on the laptop - it slows it down but there is so much compression/echo/reverb going on - it's makes it very hard for me to listen to.

@Jake-Parker - There is a problem with this episode as it is playing back at 2x speed with some digital compression sounds mixed in. I have played it via the Podcast app on my iPhone and also directly from the SVS website on my laptop. Same problem on both so the file has an issue.

@w-coats - Hi Will! Being that I am involved in setting up this contest - I am not going to voice my opinion on which of your two designs to submit. I will just say that I think you have done a great job with both of them and which ever you choose you can be really proud of your work!

Good luck!

@eric-castleman Great idea Eric!

Hi All - Wacom posted today that the Windows 10 April update resolved our issue. You can find the info on it here: https://www.wacom.com/en-us/support?linkId=51131044&guideTitle=Why-is-the-pen-scrolling-instead-of-drawing-or-selecting-everything-in-Windows%3F&guideId=c0fbe8d4-d7b5-41ec-93c8-368cf9dfe2d7

I just finished the update and turned Windows Ink options back on in my Wacom control panel. And all seems to be working fine in Photoshop for me!

@chip-valecek - I did the exact same thing - with Photoshop and had to go and redownload all of the Kyle brushes and install them again, and arrange them the way i like them. So I totally feel your pain with all the troubleshooting trying to figure this one out.

@chip-valecek - Chip I had the same issuse on Thursday night after my Wacom updated. After much searching, I found articles online about MIcrosoft updates being the issue. On my tablet the update would not allow me to "uninstall" so I had to do a recovery of my previous restore point to get things back to normal. Then I found an article on how to prevent automatic Windows 10 updates (requires you to add a registry key) so I can hold off on that update until a fix is found. Any idea's how we will know if a fix is found and can start updating again?

Hi Charlie Eve you are an absolute expert at working with textures and a graphical style.

I have come back to this post a few times now and the one thing I could offer is perhaps there is just a little bit too much texture/busyness going on in that top half of this Snow Happen cover. Like maybe the tree's could have less texture here? So that they would give our eyes a little bit of a break? Because with the snow splatter, and everything else going on, I lose the title a bit and my mind wants something to be able to rest on and that might be a place to do it? Like I said you are the pro at this so you might have a better solution but just a thought for you to consider.

I remember the portfolio pieces you had created for this story a while back when you shared them here, and they have stuck with me all this time. They were so wonderful. So I can not tell you how happy I am that you are turning it into a dummy and moving forward with the story, concept and style. I know it will be a real winner when you are done. Can't wait to see where it takes you!
