Ana,<br>
<br>
I've looked at the book some more. Some comments:<br>
<br>
1). Every image used in the book needs to be uploaded to that same<br>
book. You can't link to images outside the book. It will *look* OK<br>
when you're editing, but the book will not publish correctly, either<br>
to the web or to PDF or EPUB. I think the chapters you worked on did<br>
this OK but some of your collaborators didn't realize this.<br>
<br>
2). There is extra style information in the pages probably caused by<br>
editing in Word. Some of this is harmless, but the only way you're<br>
going to know is by creating a PDF with the default styles and looking<br>
at each page. Some of the style stuff is definitely harmful!<br>
<br>
3). There are no bios for you and your team in the "About The<br>
Authors" chapter. People want to know who you are! Don't feel you<br>
need to make your bio as silly as mine is, but put something there.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>ok<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
4). When I post this to the Internet Archive and the Kindle Store I'm<br>
going to want to have a Spanish description for the book. Could you<br>
please provide one? </blockquote><div>I will <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">Feel free to come up with your own description,<br>
or if you don't want to do that translate what I'm using here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Make-Your-Sugar-Activities-ebook/dp/B0050VAHKW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&m=AG56TWVU5XWC2&s=digital-text&qid=1305432542&sr=1-1" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.com/Make-Your-Sugar-Activities-ebook/dp/B0050VAHKW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&m=AG56TWVU5XWC2&s=digital-text&qid=1305432542&sr=1-1</a><br>
<br>
I have fixed up some problems with the book and may continue to do<br>
that as time permits, but since I don't know Spanish I can't be<br>
trusted to do all the fix-ups. The key thing is to put the editor in<br>
HTML mode for each chapter and look for stuff that doesn't belong.<br></blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
Thanks, <br></blockquote><div><div>Hope to do this between now and tomorrrow!<br><br>I was here today <a href="http://conozcoejemplo.wordpress.com">http://conozcoejemplo.wordpress.com</a> people finds it too hard but they follow it, I think it is the 3rd time I try to teach this. Pupils are mostly teachers, primary and secondary, some (10) knew not the ConozcoUruguay.xo, none (-1) had ever opened Terminal before. My task is to take out fear, one of them told later she couldn t face writing on the console that she felt unsecure. I try to push them reminding them their request of good spelling to their pupils. We teachers are hard to sit down in class, <br>
<br>Buen fin de semana:) Raining at home<br></div><br> <br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><font color="#888888">
