You had to ship them a hard drive? I thought they took that stuff in either printed form, or with the files just burned to DVD

I dunno about you, but popping files onto a hard drive is way easier then burning DVD's. I had 10 gigs which I think would be 3 DVD's. I get the HD back I have to LOL at your "printed" responce hehe.

You did say that it was a childrens book at one point. I assumed it wasn't quite as long as war and peace I had a 400-page thesis which I had printed for 3 sources for review and submission. They didn't even want the digital copy.

If you get it back, that's fine. I routinely burn files to DVD though. One 8.5gb disk and one 4.7gb disk is around $1.10, and is cheaper to ship than a hard drive--3.5" especially. Flash drive would make a lot of sense. A hard drive might be a PITA for them to hook up. I've seen interns destroy a hard drive, as odd as that may be.

Happily I did not have to pay shipping, and I plan to use that HD as a back up of all the book files once I get it back, gonna put all the CR2 raws on there. Its about 180 pages and each page will have a photo on it i think. I am sure Randomhouse will not smash my hard drive, if they do they will pay for it.

yeah I have one a few of those but they make me nervous for serious back up! Also I had NO idea how much room the final files would take up, I had like 600 files originally. I think I brought it down to 300. Shew. It was a lot of work!

I would not trust a drive that has been mailed around too much. Impact forces involved in shipping can drasticly adverse the life of a drive.

So I am a little courious, this is a book right? I have never written a book but I am courious why it takes up 10GB. Most books I read are largely text, which take up very little space. Even pictures I can't imagine taking up that much space because book pages aren't exactly huge so even at 300dpi the image files would not be that big...
