I am not sure what happened to it, it was kinda hard figuring out where to cut on a white cover, I may need to reprint that one, also somehow my Wario 4 cover and Rayman advance covers came out very tiny.....so I have 3 covers to reprint. No she wasnt blonde.....she was black. But I really dont understand why she would need to open the files. Anyways I will just buy some legal paper and print the rest at work :)

And who ISN'T a BSG fan might be more appropriate? Real bummer that it's the final season though. I don't think Caprica is going to reach the heights of this series somehow. Love to be proved wrong of course. :)
I personally think Sci-fi was going through a bit of a renaissance period with BSG, the likes of which really had been lost after Firefly was cancelled. Prior to that Babylon 5 was the only other series with a decent story-arc. Now all the good ones are finished/finishing & TV execs seem to think we all just want more reality TV or Desperate Housewives ripoff's. Sci-fi may be pushed back into the wilderness again if Caprica doesn't do well in the first 5 episodes. Gonna be interesting to see how it plays out .....

As someone who works in TV, I can tell you that the direction away form dramas and sci-fi is not necessarily because networks think that people wana see more reality. Its because they are cheap and times are hard. Reality is a lot less expensive to produce and execs see that people are "contempt" with it.
BTW.. what happened to Firefly was a travesty!

Shouldn't that have read "Content" with it?
Mind you .... the word "Contempt" certainly fits with my personal view of reality TV & chick drama's .... LOL
As for Firefly .... yep .... they screwed a great series indeed. And it resulted in the movie Serenity which was somewhat of a disappointment for me as the crew relationships in Firefly was what lifted the series from standard fare to "unmissable TV" The movie glossed over those completely as Whedon attempted to finish the Reaver/River Tam arc's in just 2 short hours. Sad ending to a great series as far as I am concerned!!
Back to the printing comments ..... I had a couple print incorrectly so ended up importing the pic into a MS Word doc then sized it to the physical dimensions I measured from another correctly sized print. Never had an issue after that as I saved it as a template & just imported the next pic into the doc and made sure it was dimensioned the same. That way the odd file with incorrect DPI etc didn't result in a smaller or oversized printout.

is it $0.50 per image? Either way it's total crap. That's as far as they can charge you for "labor" costs at a printing store :P

eh I've always used the self service printing there anyhow.
