I just finished a version of Deckard's newspaper, complete with the correct headline, masthead, and detailed articles. It's a wraparound for a USA-today -sized paper, and I designed it at a resolution to be printed out full size, but I'm still looking for an economical way to print it. I hope to post some additional images to show the article text.<BR><BR>Here's the repro:<BR><BR><!-- BBCode auto-link start --><a href="http://www.freepicturehosting.com/g/120716_T.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.freepicturehosting.com/g/120716_T.jpg</a><!-- BBCode auto-link end --><BR><BR>and the original:<BR><BR><!-- BBCode auto-link start --><a href="http://www.freepicturehosting.com/g/120717_T.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.freepicturehosting.com/g/120717_T.jpg</a><!-- BBCode auto-link end --><BR><BR>Any comments?
