Its all scanned and ready to upload.. One problem though. The PDF is 18 megs I have compressed the living Daylights out of to get it to that size originally it was 58 megs. So i need to ask does someone have a ftp that I can load this upto. My service only offers me a 10 meg online storage and all the free places..."Well are Junk". I dont have a web server yet so I cant upload to web storage. If Not I will break the book into 2 parts and upload one part now and then switch to part 2 next week. Any help would be appriciated.
(edit) heres the link to Part1 Modem users beware as this is a 10meg file so it will take awhile.

What I find is if you are going to file a (single file) to a Server Site.. You can Sqeegee around 120-150,,,, DPI--J-Peg. In a scene of 600-700 width if the length is no more them 2/3rds the size........
Best work is in length and not height.
WWWork does depend on the Project... But WEB Site Graphics depends on Page Spanding!

This Scanned copy of a book Guys its 100 scanned images of lettering styles and how to hand letter. If I reduce the Jpeg quality anymore it defeats the purpose of the book. A few People on the board wanted a copy of this book it was published in 1947 Speedball Lettering Guide Number 17. Curtis Yes I was posting the link here so people could download it so You may not want it on a private server as it would chew up bandwidth. I have my own FTP server but its not set up yet as I am waiting on IPs I am running behind a Hardware Firewall and my only IP is Issued to that. So it makes all my other servers useless with invalid IPs.

That brings back memories. The Speedball Book was my first lettering book. If you have permission from the original publishers and everything is legal, we will host it here Bill. Let's make sure first Bill.

Bill...I've gone thru the two "Speedball" books I have here and the last copyright I show is 1965.
Is there a statute of limitations?
Sure wouldn't want to see anyone in trouble...copying it ...especially when it is available almost free (one of mine has a price tag of $1.50 ...almost ridiculous when you consider how much info is in there).
Of course that price was back in 1965...haha
At any rate let us know of the certaintee of the copyright before I off-load it.
