I was thinking that myself. I've been trying to figure out how to print the artwork out in a booklet form, but I think you would need it as separate jpg's so you could organize it properly.

Keith I could upload the low-res JPEGs for you, which would be suitable to display on the web. I can't upload the high-res images because each image in the artwork at its full-res is 6 megapixels, and so around 4MB and since I'm on dialup It would take ages to do that. But I could burn a CD and mail it to you with the high-res JPEG artwork...

I'm sure you've tried this but I thought i'll mention it anyway: you could also take a screen-cap of the current PDF pages if you just resize the PDF window. The images look fine to me even if expand the window to about 1280x800 pixels...

I actually chose the PDF format because I thought it would be easy to print-out... What's causing the problems?

I have put together a 50M MP3 version for those with bandwidth issues.

I will wait for confirmation from Mossy before I post this as he may not want MP3s of this floating around.

I downloaded the MP3s. For some reason they all play at half speed on my computer with all the vocals slow and distorted :P

That sounds more like a description of .FLAC files to me.

Hi!
Glad to hear Double Core is available now to download!
Looking forward to hear the album!

However we have problem to download the files. Is it working?
It looks they are corrupt.

Best Regards Patrik

I'm really looking forward to this. Sadly, being a Mac person, it doesn't look like this multi-zip thing will work (well, I could just use Parallels, but I'm far too lazy to both use that and download each big file one at a time).

Is there any chance we could see a .torrent, or maybe even an mp3 version that isn't encoded in crap form (maybe 256kbps VBR)?

Tenniru...I do believe that fatoldbob converted the files to mp3 somewhere on one of the threads. Also, Vera Lynn (Ray) offered copies of the discs for North American residents. I received mine on Saturday....

He uploaded the mp3s at 56kb/s, and Tennyroo seems to want 256kb/s because the other one isn't good enough for him.
