it's something the Baron's done, scrunches all pix bigger than 500 pixels down. he posts size reduced ones here and on JC and couple other places i believe.

i do intend to buy the books at some point, but the cost is a tad prohibitive at present. plus, i'm running out of book shelf space as it is!

I know what you mean by price kind of off putting to non fans (there's people on deviant art that would like to buy this but they're scattered all over the world ..usa , australia south america I'm wondering how much more it will cost them ) I 'm going to figure a way of printing from uk for my retcon comic Red Dusk either that or do what Jamar does although I do own a rather nifty laser printer trouble with that it only prints a4 so it's complicated to put a comic together (I have done before but it didn't look as good as it could of due to it been homemade)

Jamar uses the same printer company I do for the books. They are the cheapest by far.

One good thing is that the shipping rate for the books is fixed from 2-10 volumes, so once volume four is released buying a full set will be more cost effective.

I post the same size images in every forum, it's just that some (now including BFTB) have an image reduction mod. You should just need to click on the pics to get a full size image open in a new tab.

Sundance, if you need me to look into it, I really need specifics. Are you still using IE7 or have you updated it?

Hmm. Same on IE8. I'll have to check with the phpBB tech support.

Sorry about that. You can always read them in the main archive: http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/comics/ ... index.html but it does mean scrolling through every week.

There is a list of all the other forum pages here: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=6128&start=9

Trev's images were all posted as attachments, as opposed to embedded [img] pics. Does that track with your findings?
