hkokko 390 Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Is the Pavis Panorama picture available as a one pdf from somewhere. There is only small size jpg in Chaosium page. I own all the paper and pdf combinations of Pavis/Big Rubble but seemingly cannot find it on a single page (it is divided across two pages in both books). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Scott 3,748 Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 As long as it's for personal use, I would suggest one of the following: opening the Pavis:TtD in your PDF reader in a 2 page spread, hide any sidebars, open it as large as you can, then screen shot it. Extracting the two pages from the PDF and stitch them together (software permitting). Your printer setup may allow you to print both pages together on A3 to PDF. It will have a line down the centre. You can likely redact the text. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hkokko 390 Posted January 17 Author Report Share Posted January 17 (edited) Personal use. the above was my plan B. The picture is so fabulous it would deserve a full blown pdf and a poster... That is my wish for plan A (while I proceed with plan B ) Edited January 17 by hkokko Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Meints 3,085 Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 How about we put it up for sale as a poster and such on redbubble. 12 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hkokko 390 Posted January 17 Author Report Share Posted January 17 That sounds wonderful - poster and desktop picture etc. In these remote times it would be great to be able to have it as a digital copy as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Quackerjack 28 Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 Not meaning to be rude or dismissive about the value of the IP here, but offering some thoughts. At the level of Glorantha's brand awareness, isn't virtually any brand proliferation good proliferation? Even if piracy was 50% of Gloranthan image use (which I very much doubt), wouldn't that help attract people to the world and the (paying) products? The marginal cost of producing digital IP is close to zero, and the costs of producing Pavis material have been recouped many times over. This is when other IP companies like Nintendo (random example) tend to discount heavily. Now, it may work for them precisely because their scale is so much larger than Chaosium's, but I wonder if it isn't in your best interest to act similarly. I'd really love for Glorantha to become a CoC-like property, and it probably isn't going to happen through the ferally-loyal-but-few fans like me, who own multiple copies of the same books. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really understand what you are suggesting, so I'll not comment on whether you are being rude or dismissive. We're not going to sell high resolution electronic files of art, nor give them away for free. We offer a variety of free intro products for beginners and newcomers.
