Post by: spookeend on April 15, 2010, 02:52:26 PM
Well, i have them, and thought it would be nice to let other people to have a look too..

So, i photographed the books, retouched somethings, made the images good for online use, and made a flash "real" book like thing to read it.

Not sure yet, got a few comic book here, and some more (unofficial) photobooks, but it takes several hours to photograph and edit them.........
Photobooks like the one from Robert John are to thick and complicated to put online i think, not to mention the copyright problems................

The Tourbook i think is less of a problem there, well..............

Perhaps i will start on the comics today, they are funny

And, added a Photo book, it is a rare "20 Tear Out Photo Book"

Containing 20 A4 size images, that can be torn out to use as poster orso.
Bought it very long ago, new, never took one photo out. Also, a nice "tale" of the band

Nice books.

This reminds me how long I've been trying to get hold of the 2006 Europe & UK Tour Itenerary. It's been shown as unavailable on eil for the past 3 years, I knew I should have gotten it when I first saw it.  :hihi:

I'd appreciate a copy too, but I can't bullsh*t you!  works fine from here, love the comic book, but yeah,  send me the files too,  if you could,  thanks in advance  :P , much appreciated...

Post by: spookeend on April 18, 2010, 12:05:22 PM
will see what i can do. I can make the books to be downloaded i guess..........
But, i would hate to see some-one getting them to be printed and then see them on ebay or something.......

Perhaps i can make a little copyright thingy in it? It's not that i don't want to share, i just, well, have been troubled in the past, with my GNRCDCOVERS page, people telling me that i was killing their sales and stuff, so i grew to be more carefull..........

If so, it would be zipped i guess, perhaps in low-res to save some space on my webhost........

Will see what i do, i can upload 3 more comics tonight, however, the one that is on now, is the best, the others are little weird stories......

I've never put something over ebay and i don't even make torrents. so if you can make them available you can send them through PM to be safe.

In my country there's no chance to get such things as these books and I can't order them on ebay 'cause since I got fired I have no f**king credit card

 :peace: thanks man

Where you from then??

I uploaded the last 3 comics, 4 in total now.
Trying to figure out a safe way of making the to be downloaded. I am not making everything for load, only the tour-books i think, perhaps that photobook too....

Can you see nothing there?

Post by: spookeend on April 19, 2010, 02:47:06 AM
You can not see anything?
The site is dutch, yes, but, other then the flash parts, where you might need an extra browser plugin for, the basics of the site are just php, simular to this forum..............

Working on "water-marking" try-outs now

Ok, i have made the tourbooks and the 20 page photo book for download.
In the flash, if you open the page, there is a button where you can load the files.

please, no hotlinking, that would kill my traffic, and i might have to shut down the site for a while then...........

re-done some stuff on the site, all books are now to be found in one place / page.

Filling the bootlegs as the rest, will do the same with the official releases on vinyl

And, added the UYI Press-Release aswell.

For all who hotlinked, the site structure is slightly changed, so the permalinks won't work for long. The ones that are on now, will be the new permalinks, sorry for that, had some scripting problems.

http://www.spookeend.nl/gnr/books-pictures

and for how the bootlegs section looks now, i think more info, and more easy to locate on the page.
Don't worry, i am not even half way done with it, a lot, a BIG lot still to come.

Post by: spookeend on May 30, 2010, 04:33:00 PM
added two more comics.

http://www.spookeend.nl/gnr/archives/celebrity-comic-gnr-01
http://www.spookeend.nl/gnr/archives/celebrity-comic-gnr-02

I am re-doing all the comics i have (8 in total) by photographing them trough/under a Plexiglas plate (to make the book flat) and editing them in photoshop. I can't photograph directly because you would see the camera reflected or the flash. It is a lot of work, about 2 hours each book. Both are for download too, in good size, 850x1300@100dpi (with slight watermark)

I also found out that not all comics are that great to read,  ??? some are just plain weird stories. The ones i put up now are good though, nice images too.

Hope you like the effort, when i am done with the rest, i will post again here.

You're welcome. Made the press-release things for load too, TSI is still in the making.
Also, some old stuff, like tour ads and other crap, just pix, all on now.
