[Artemisia] The last of the cover art caper...

[Aaron Leach]

Ok, for all those out there working on cover art for the Sage, here are the 
best ways to send said work to insure it will see print. I do all the 
scanning and such type work for Freydis, as I know the program and how to 
make it work.
1: Make a high quality photocopy of the work on laser copier. Please fill 
out the release form and sign it. Put both artwork and release form in an 
envelope, mail the art work flat please, and mail it to the address inside 
the front cover of the Sage. There is an online release form, and Freydis is 
also working up a new release form that will be available online soon.
2: For those of the electronic type submission. If you e-mail your artwork, 
because the dpi has to be so low, it might not print that great. That and if 
a bunch of artwork hits the e-mail account in a short period of time, the 
mail box fill up and start bouncing other peoples submission back at them. 
The best way is to scan the image at 600 dpi as a black and white or text 
image. Bitmap for those who know more about computers. After scanning and 
clean up, make the image a grayscale, and save as a TIFF. Save the file to a 
disk/ cd, fill out the release form and mail it to the address in the 
address inside the front cover of the Sage. Don't worry about sizing the 
images, I'll do that for you. Please refrain from including any of the logo 
work in your artwork. I have said why in a previous post. Oh, and remember 
while you're drawing away on your cover art to have fun, because that's what 
this is really all about.
