Has anybody actually recieved a check yet for books they have sold. I sold three to my brides family members and have been told by Blurb "check's in the mail" over 4 times now. I am extremely dissapointed right now!

I created my layouts with Yarvant Page Gallery at 13x11 at 300dpi so they're definitely large enough.. Is this just a thing with the preview, or will my images actually print out like that? Anyone?
My book looked just as bad as the preview. In other words some of the pictures in the book came out pixelated even though I used hi-res files.

I've noticed in the three books I've ordered, the previews looked a little pixelated, but they have come out fine

I know a lot of us had problems with overly warm covers on these books. Today, I received this email from Blurb:


Hi Tom,

I am sorry for the delay. No it was not isolated. The investigation brought to light a color problem at the printer. They had a color technician on site last week and have just confirmed the fix yesterday. I am terribly sorry that it took so long to get this reprint to you. Your new order number is #44617.

Best Regards,
Grey

Does anyone have a used Yervant Page Gallery they may want to sell? Maybe go in half and split the cost of the new one?
