http://www.republic.co.uk/page/soulcalcomp?utm_source%3DNewsletter61%26utm_medium%3Demail%26utm_content%3Dmeat%20and%20cheese%26utm_campaign%3Dseasonal


Sharpen your virtual pencils and break out the digital paints! Festival season is upon us and we’re offering you the chance to win a Nintendo Wii with Guitar Hero 3 PLUS a bagful of Soul Cal festival essentials for 25 runners up.

To be in with a chance of winning, send us your favourite album cover(s) drawn using ‘Paint’ - the painting program that comes free with Windows.
To get started:

1. Click the ‘Start’ menu and open ‘Programs’, then ‘Accessories’ and then click on ‘Paint’.
2. Once Paint has loaded open the ‘Image’ menu and select ‘Attributes...’. Make sure ‘Units’ is set to ‘Pixels’ and that ‘Width’ and ‘Height’ are both set to 600. Click ‘OK’.
3. Grab your favourite album cover and set to work!
The rules. Please..

1. DON’T write the artist/band name or album name if it appears on the cover - use ‘band’/’album’/’blah’/’???’ etc. instead.
2. NO Photoshoppers! We’re experts in this and we’ll spot you!
3. NO ’White Album’ covers. You have to earn this lovely stuff!
Tips

1. SAVE your masterpiece regularly to avoid risking losing it.
2. GRAB copies of album covers from Wikipedia, or do a Google image search to find them.
