Great !! - I thought it was supposed to out later this month.

I'm supposed to be one of the illustrators feature in the book. If anyone has received their copy please could they see if I have made it into the final book ? Unfortunately I haven't received my free copy yet.

My globe image should be used in a 2 page spread talking about how I use bitmap images in Illustrator.

Hi David, I don’t have the book yet either. But I have seen your nice illustration. I can’t remember which page exactly but yes I saw it during the production of the book. I was the tech. editor for this release.

Great !! Thanks Jean-Claude.

I've been desperate to announce the release on my website but its not in any of my local bookshops yet. There's a lot of illustrators in the book so I expect it will take peachpit a while to send the books out.

Thanks again
David
