Also, should I use the same file for the e book on CN or do I need to do anything with it? I have photographs in this one which I know I need to mess with for Amazons Kindle (they can go back into color for example but need resising etc. Is there a guide anywhere explaining the CN e book process?

Still waiting for my final proof reading changes to the manuscript before I publish again. Hopefully only days away now from my next "launch" !! (more)

If I correct that and then do an accept to update the version on your files, will I lose all the correct colours again or will it be OK? The trouble with these proof readers is that they keep finding errors! (more)

As long as the cover looks something like the revised pdf I think it will be excellent. And they said the grass wasn't greener on the other side! My grass now looks green and the blues and yellows have got their spark back! I will not order another proof copy now, I had already ordered the second one that is winging it's way to my proof reader now. I'll now wait until we have all finished the proof reading and then I will update the manuscript one more time and then get one final proof copy just to check the cover again. That will take a couple of weeks I would think. As I say though, the new pdf, after you have played with it, looks fabulous and I can't now see anything different to the book cover generator version. Many thanks once again Oli, I know I am a pain, but I am determined to get this one right all the way through after the headaches we had last time. Best wishes David (more)
