Very upset about this but the final book will not have the UI images that I've been including. Amazon charges you for how big your book file is, and the images swelled it to 16mb. This means they would charge me $2.50 for '''delivery fee'''. Completely innascusable.

I was prepared to take like a $1 delivery fee but $2.50 is literally half of my $5 royalty.  This ruined my whole night cause now I have to go through like 50 chapters to remove images and replace them with text when all I wanted to do was submit the book tonight... so... yeah.

Not much else to say that.

Is it that size with SVGs? Is there any chance you can try to convert to? If it's just UI elements, SVG should be a good fit as an image type

If the svg idea doesn't work maybe cut the book to multiple and release one book at the beginning of this month and the next at the end.

I didn't do that earlier for a reason, I forced myself to end the first book here specifically despite how hard it was to get here. I'm mad and don't want amazon to get any more of my money than they already will.

It won't make a difference solely down to how much there is but thank you regardless. The files are already 70-350kb max, it's just the amount.

Godamnit Amazon. Can u up the price of the book to like 7$?

Already said I'm not giving them another dollar. Images are mostly gone now and I've been up all night rewriting the relevant bits.

Might be worth keeping a copy that has those images in it for a future deluxe collection edition

Nah I’d have to keep doing it and making them for all the other books which was already a giant fucking pain, it sucked that all that work was for nothing but I don’t miss the hassle
