Hard to say. I was doing 30-50 mb per issue before. The v17's (first issues directly from you instead of scanned jpegs) are very cool, but very 85mb each. The archive is 3.4 GB, so there's about ~1 GB left before we start moving to double-layer DVDs. Let's say that's about 3 years at 85MB (18, 19, 20). But if we drop down the size to ~50MB (and re-optimize the v17s), we could get up to maybe V23 before having to switch technologies. Or we could do something in-between, i.e., optimize v20 to ~50mb each, leave 18+19 as-is, then back-optimize 17,18,19 in two years if we have to make more space for a future edition. Yes, I think that sounds best. :) - Erik On Mon, 6 Apr 2009, Cheryl Rogers wrote: > Erik Olson wrote: >> Done, on website stuff.
