Welcome!

A couple of weeks ago we twittered about the web design sketchbook, a set of browser outlines and grids that can be used for sketches, drafts etc., created by Jan Raedschelders. The response was huge and many designers asked Jan to print out the set and sell it as a proper sketch book. And that's exactly what Jan did - and now he is giving 15 copies of his sketchbook away, exclusively to Smashing Magazine and its readers.

The sketch pad consist of the following 3 parts:

20 overview pages



Pages containing 9 browser windows that can be used to make small drawings or overviews of larger sketches. Each page also has a small space for notes.

15 mailing pages



Sketching a mailing can also prove very useful, that is why we have provided a limited number of mailing pages. On this page, you can find a browser window in the size of the mailing on a grid system. These pages also have some space for notes.

50 browser pages



Most of the pages in the sketch pad are general browser pages. These have the exact size of a screen with a 1024 x 768 resolution. In my opinion, these pages are the perfect solution if you need to sketch any particular kind of application. These pages have space for notes too.


How can you win a copy?

7 copies have already been given away via Twitter, but 8 more copies can be won simply by leaving a meaningful comment in one of the posts in our forum. Once you posted your new comment, please link to it here. The winners will be picked randomly in 24 hours. Only posters with meaningful comments will be considered. Good luck!

And if you don't win a copy, you can always print it out by yourself or buy a printed sketchbook on Jan's blog. Thank you for participation, folks and thanks to Jan for a simple, but useful idea!

Can you go back and edit your posts so it links to this one? And how will it be chosen randomly?

Didn't get lucky on twitter, I will try my luck here , but I don't have time for meaningful comments right now. Tried to delete this post but couldn't.

Is this a bug on Smashing Forums? I got an error message something like "Sorry couldn't delete post that has a reply" but I don't think anyone has replied to my post.

Now is this meaningful?
