    Just thought people would like to have an update on the progress of releasing the Resurrection Audiobook.

    As the disc pressing company uses a different format for their printing templates, this necessitated converting the artwork for the inserts to the correct format. The trajectory took it through two different versions of Quark and finally into PageMaker. Unfortunately the clarity of the texts (also in an incompatible font) and the images suffered. This forced us to start from scratch and recreate the inserts, tray card and disc label. This, in turn, meant finding all the original graphic TIFF files–from computers replaced a few years past!

    But GOOD NEWS: all the files were located and the inserts and tray card are now finished. We just have to recreate the disc label–so that it is the same quality image as the rest–and we will be ready to go.

    We delayed the release to make sure that all the imagery was in the best possible condition.

    We will not be accepting pre-orders for this item. When it is done and delivered, we will put it up for sale. As soon as we do, I’ll announce it here on the forum (and on OA and GBA).

    Good news. You also may wish to announce it on the Eagle Transporter Forum.

    FYI. There is a strange glitch that occurs–sometimes–when you click on the Resurrection Audiobook page. Sometimes it will take you instead to the Survival page–however, if you click on the Resurrection Audiobook link a second time, it will correct itself and take you to the Resurrection Audiobook page. We don’t know why.

    odd. I get the first glitch, where I get taken to the Survival page, but all subsequent clicks just give me:
    [b]Error: Sorry, but the Product you’ve requested wasn’t found![/b]

    I get the same glitches. The one time I managed to order the product I got half way through check out and couldn’t add a shipping method because there were none to choose from. The lack of a “Contact” section is particularly annoying. How do I add a shipping method when none are presented?

    The reason no one can complete the ordering process is because the audiobook is still unreleased. We just set up the initial stages of the store for that item because we are close to releasing it. Sorry for the confusion.

    If you look at the audiobook’s page, next to the title is the word “unpublished”. We hoped that would let people know the item was still not published yet. Again, sorry for the confusion.

    As soon as the audiobook is ready for purchase, we will post on the forum and the major groups, such as Online Alpha and GayBaseAlpha, etc., letting everyone know.

    Feel free to contact us at any time at: [b]powysmedia[/b] then [b]@[/b] then [b]prodigy[/b] then [b].net[/b].

    Also, on the SURVIVAL and RESURRECTION audiobook pages, there is a link that says “Ask a question about this item”. When you click it, it formats an email to the address given above, which goes directly to Powys. As well, we read the forum daily and try to respond to all inquiries. Of course, the forum is intended as a discussion board. If you have any questions or concerns, please email us directly.

    :blush: Sorry about that, guess it was too early in the morning for me. I see all of those things so clearly now… Thanks for the quick update.

    Not a problem. It helps us when people let us know if there’s a problem with the site, etc. We try to resolve any issues as soon as possible. 🙂
