This is Getting Repetitious but It's Part of the Self-Publishing Business

Today was like yesterday — I replaced another low-res jPEG with the full-sized PSD file. Okay, I’ve learned my lesson. Enough! Let’s move on!

That’s what the impatient part of me is saying, the part that quits a project when it gets tedious/repetitious/grueling/hard. I’m talking to myself when I say, I ain’t falling for that line of reasoning. I’m going to ignore the noisy propaganda coming from inside my own brain and focus on getting this project repaired and completed. One inch at a time still stands as my guiding principle.

Here’s the image I replaced today. Because I’m displaying it on a web page, the resolution looks fine, but it’s way too low for printing. What looks good on a web screen looks like crap on paper. This image is for the square print version of my book. I’m planning to use a 4:3 aspect ration for all images in my next book. It’s a decent compromise — there will be reasonable black bars on HD devices, but it will be perfection for print and the iPad.
