Tree Artwork
Alysoun
I just wanted to let you all know as my finalmissive to you all that the artowk
for this round is ONLINE.
Matt has drawn up some *incredible* artwork and it will be availbale on Matt's
web site:
Here are the requirements:
1) a program that can import and print .jpeg files
2) a color printer
3) it takes anywhere from 5-20 minutes to download depending on modem speed and
traffic.
4) the web address is <www.concentric.net/~mdesmith/tull.htm>
Those of you without color printeres (except Lee Ann who has already been taken
care of) should email their branches and they will enclose the art work with
the discs.
IF you have any questions about the artwork and how it would work for you,
please contact Steve <Sda...@rocketmail.com> and he can answer any questions.
Best to you all,
Allison

I just wanted to thank you for responding to the artwork. It's always
nice to hear what people are thinking. Hopefully in the future, we'll be
able to offer higher quality in prints being sent to people without a
price hike. We'll keep working on it!
I'm right now in the process of collecting material for the next 2-CD
set from Rock Island. My initial feel is that it won't be nearly as
graphic as the "B" offering.
I have some good ideas floating around which I'm ironing out as we
speak.
Thanks again for the input!
All the best!

I need to clear something up immediately. The artwork for "B" is NOT to be
downloaded from Matt's site. Due to a communication glitch Matt and I
decided to NOT make the URL available. Why? Several reasons. (1) In trial
runs things didn't always download and print properly from machine to
machine. Pretty serious problem. (2) Maybe this is petty but it was
decided when we started the tree that we'd serialize each set by branch so
that the CFR91+ set was 19980917-xxxx where the first part was my release
date and the xxxx represented the branch number. Added uniqueness to
everyone's disc, and a bootlegging deterrent (ha ha). At least the art will
be hard to crib since it tells where it came from. In retrospect that's not
very practical unless we serialized each disc. I do it for the branches who
do it for the leaves. Probably more work than it is worth. Still I've
started a serialization scheme, and I'd like to continue with it. (3) Matt
gets lots of lookers (over 1000 so far!) but only a 1% download rate. The
host of the site is not happy about those kind of numbers. So he's been
asked to remove the site from that location...
...which brings us full circle to the reason why the branches all have Neato
Mediaface, or have made arrangements with either Matt or me for raw jpegs.
That's how the inserts will be distributed, by email from me or Matt to the
branches in the appropriate format. If you have already downloaded and
printed the inserts, please let your branch know about it ASAP so that they
don't go to the trouble of printing things for you unnecessarily. You'll
still get the labels mounted on the roms of course.

Try again!
What I meant was that due to a communication glitch Matt and I (etc etc) and
failied to tell Allison that we would continue with the planned Neato
distribution method instead of using the web-site download (which is why the
branches all were emailed the Neato files last week).

Folks, the artwork's great. Beautiful. Fully the equal of most
commercial stuff out there, and a damn sight better than most.
But if bandwidth's a concern, there's no need for a 1+ MB high-res image
when people are going to print it out on their inkjet at 75dpi. Even a
150dpi image would be acceptable for the few of us out here who have
something fancy like thermal wax.
