I'm not saying that Rosity's book won't be accepted and the artists won't get commissions. I'm not even saying that the fee won't be worth the risk, but you have to show that. From a purely business marketing point of view, if you plan to charge more than more respected places, you have the burden of justifying the benefits of doing so. Rosity has not done a good job of making that case Yup. I do agree with you there. As I recall a few of the other folks further up the thread pointed that out, too. So we do all agree that the execution of this was rather clumsy and they lost good momentum and excitement by rushing the play. Let's see if they rally and give us all the more reason to get excited. Although, I do know, first hand, how busy everyone is here... that's probably why I'm sitting here, like a fool, defending them instead of getting much needed rest. So, with that sobering thought -- Enough foolishess from me on this thread. Take care everyone :-) audre
