All complete. I will transmit in the morning when I get to work.

What size and format do you want the pics sent in?

Actually, I'd prefer if the art was scanned in as black and white line art, although gray scale art will work too. (I can more easily clean up the background if it's line art, but if the sketch is particularly detailed or shaded, grey scale will do.)

I scanned mine in color, even though its B&W line art. B&W came-out really granny, and gray-scale had gray blotches in some of the details. My old-ass scanner is optimized for color photos.

Actually that's fine too. If it really becomes an issue, I can print out the high rez image, then turn around and scan THAT image as black and white art. Not ideal, but it should work just fine for this project.

We're at 30 pix right now, so one-third of the book's creatures are illustrated. I think that's a really good ratio - one or two pix per "spread". I believe I'm going to consider the project "closed" by this weekend so I can wrap up the interior layout. Knock on wood, this should be available for release before the end of the month! My heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated.
