I don't mind providing the scans -- several of you have asked, either with posts here or direct e-mail -- but I'm not in charge of this here project. Reverend Beastly started this thing and has been moving it along, so I think it's up to him whether scans get released into the wild -- especially directly from me.

Reading back over the thread, it seems pretty likely RB will approve. But I'd like to have it made explicit before sending anything anywhere.

Assuming he does approve, though, how you want this stuff sent? It's about 699MB. I'd rather not torrent it, and I have no experience with posting big-ass binaries to Usenet (no stranger to downloads of big-ass binaries, of course) nor any other download-this-huge-file system.

In fact, I'd be happiest sending out some CDs in the mail. I think I can probably knock off a few copies and stick 'em in envelopes faster than I can figure out PowerPost and wait for that to finish.

So, if you're interested in a copy, please send me some e-mail (click below) and let me know your address. Serious enquiries only, please! These files are not ready-to-print DVD covers; they're huge, overlapping raw scans. You will need to know a fair amount about Photoshop (I'd imagine layers, Gaussian blurring, resizing and cropping will be involved) and some time and effort will have to be invested to get them ready for DVD coverization.
