Hi!
L4, I check for availability last week and if you check the archive it no longer shows up in the search.

Too bad it's gone ... but I've got two painted, with transfers and assigned to my SW Drop Ship Rgt.

I ordered one so at least I get the bragging rights when it's completed.

I don't recall who asked about the artwork or where, but the first page of the appendices says that most of the artwork came from the studio that did the CCG.
Hope that helps.

Lucky dog. I'm still waiting.  I could have just preordered it but I have made a conscious decision to support my local hobby shop whenever it's practical. Especially since I have an understanding with the staff...

Good on you Mojarn- they need and deserve all the support they can get (as I'm sure the previous retailers here, including me, will attest to!)

With regards to the "Old PDFs" thread I've started this poll to see what people want to be put up on the SG website.
Since Jervis hasn't provided any info on exactly what they want and reworking all Primarch's material would be a mammoth task perhaps it would just be better to rework some of the things people want to see again the most.
If you remember particular articles please provide as much info as possible (WD issue no. etc.)
Cheers!

Cheers

Whoops! Sorry about not following up on this recently. -I have had some computerproblems and a bunch of other stuff on my mind lately.
Basically I got a mail from Jervis saying that if we send the WD articles in at a steady pace -something like an article every week or two -they will go up on the site accordingly.
From this poll I suggest that we start with some Battlereports.
Primarch: Is it possible to split up the WD compendiums and rework them into 72 dpi or do the bunch need to be re-scanned? Alternatively I don't mind re-making some of the pdfs from scratch (though it will probably prove a bit too much of an overwhelming task to re-do everythig!  )
Cheers!

Finally had the time to loook at the PDFs.
A 13 pages battlereport weighs in at 4,5 mb if I simply cut them out of the original compilation PDFs.
Is this too big do you think?
The pro's are that it is really easy to do thus more articles can go up on the Fanatic site faster.
The con is of course the size making it a bit problematic for people with slow internet connections...
Alternatively I'll just have to re-write the text and add the pics from the original scans. This would make the files much smaller but also take a considerable ammount of time.
Any thoughts on this?
Cheers!

Can't you get programs that can read text from images, thus saving you rewriting all the text...?

I think I got one with the software bundle for my scanner but I've never tried it. Guess it's worth a try.
Cheers!
