Charlie Eve Ryan

@Lee-White It is SO worth being an SVS subscriber and your podcast is fantastic! Really awesome to watch SVS grow! You guys make it possible for anyone regardless of income, time restraints, etc to get a stellar art education!

@Lee-White OMG that sounds wonderful! Very excited to hear about all the extras, that sounds like just what I need to help me figure out how to proceed. Sometimes I feel like I'm just swimming around randomly in a very big lake, and not actually reaching a destination. So happy to continue as a subscriber!

@Lee-White You guys just keep on giving. Great value for money. Well better than Netflix! I just drank 6 less coffees a month to get on-board.

I get it. I always felt like I was stealing coming here and interacting. I was hoping to win a contest to see if I wanted to join. That was never going to happen anyways

@Lee-White I’m excited about the new content and added content for subscribers. I appreciate that not everyone financial situations or priorities (or the same for personal time and commitments) get in the way of subscribing. However after looking around for something as deep pointe at comics as SVS is toward illustration made me really appreciate the value SVS provides for the price. And you let new folks try it out for free for a short period of time so people can check it out.

Nice. Critiques are so helpful to learn from, at least in my own experience.

I wonder how many people, like @kylebeaudette, participate in the contest with the hope of winning some quality education because they can't or don't, for whatever reason, buy the subscription (which I think, by the way, is a phenomenal price, at least for people who earn USD or similarly weighted currencies).

Just to throw out the idea, perhaps there could be an occasional contest for non-subscribers only? It might be a big draw to the forum for artists who don't yet participate much with SVS. It could even have a slightly different format so those with potential or drive could be rewarded and earn the subscription months.

@KathrynAdebayo sounds fun! I can afford it, just not this year as I'm teaching only part time. Next year!

@kylebeaudette I feel your pain. I’ve been trying for months just to place 3rd. Lol.
That being said , this comes at a good time as I was already planning to sign up in May. Serendipitous.

@Lee-White Do you guys still do a 7 day free trial?

Lee White

@hannahmccaffery yep!

Chip Valecek

@burvantill trying to place 3rd for months? I been trying to at least make the honorable mentions for years

@Lee-White Awesome!
@burvantill @kylebeaudette @Squirrelsize @nyrrylcadiz Maybe the 7 day trial is an option so you can have a nosey around first? That's what I plan to do I think!

Elizabeth Rose

@hannahmccaffery Good idea

Nyrryl Cadiz

I will be finishing up year subscription in June and will be taking few months off and join up back in the fall. If I cancel the yearly subscription today -I still finish up till June then I will get dropped correct?
