Re: lets get some henty

That said, I'll definitely be up for at least the first few chapters of a Henty, and 'The Young Colonists' looks good to me. And here, indeed, those young colonists are ! Take as many or as few as you're up for; I have no illusions that even a "light" Henty book will be a quick read. :wink:

Re: Including reader's name in the MP3 tags

So then the _build_tags function would be much simpler. The foreach loop goes away, and all we would need to do is add to the $tag_data array: "url_source" => array($project->url_librivox) or url_publisher, though I think url_source would be more appropriate. Side note: according to wikip...

Re: DR: Emily of New Moon by L. M. Montgomery

The editor is me, but the narrator position is open, as I am Emily and she does not narrate her whole story. So the narrator should be marked as available. The limit will be respected and all will be kept up with, never fear! :mrgreen: Precisely why I mentioned it! DRs are a lot more work than usua...

Re: Covermakers Chat Thread

I'll have to see if I can get Photoshop. I wonder if there is a free version available. Will have to check. Adobe Photoshop isn't available for free, but there are similar programs you can get for free. In the video Tricia linked, they demonstrate making covers using this one: https://www.gimp.org/

Re: DR: Emily of New Moon by L. M. Montgomery

I see from the DR Novels in Preparation thread that you have a narrator and editor lined up. Is that you, or do you have someone else signed on? Thanks for keeping up with your project in the current DR Scene & Story Collection, and for helping coordinate a previous volume of that collection. Th...

Re: Including reader's name in the MP3 tags

We are very much not guaranteeing that every proposed change gets into the code, but I'm happy to talk about this with you....
