Actually zemming recently mentioned this:

I personally have not been able to commit the same amount of time to this project as in years prior thanks to my school workload these past semesters. Unfortunately based on our present status I do not anticipate a printing to be ready for Christmas.

We definitely want more books as much as you guys. I'm still very excited for a 3rd printing and I know many people are looking forward to Horizons with it's five monumental books. We will continue to put work into the project as we have time; and will keep you guys updated when we make enough headway to guarantee a printing's success.

In the meantime if you have any questions I will work to be more active on the forums. We can also be reached by email at FOEPrintProject@gmail.com, or feel free to email me personally at zemming@zemming.org.

Thank you,

Pretty much no books until maybe sometime in the new year :C

I'd actually be up for doing a private printing project. Make just enough to give to those who help. The catch being, I don't want to read it til post-print. So any editing and chapter images would be up to someone else. I could do format editing and make the covers though, as well as the most important part, the printing.

I'm not that far behind on emails, and I don't see anything about PE PDFs in the inbox. Go ahead and send me another message, feel free to CC zemming@zemming.org

Oh. Well sorry for jumping to that conclusion. :twilightsheepish:
As for the PDFs I went ahead and edited the EPUB and made my own copy of the book. ( Which turned out great btw.)

I have updated the Pink Eyes ebook, see the full changelog here!

A welcome change for iBooks users who enjoy reading with the night/dark modes is that transparent images (page breaks and the FoE logo) now blend in with the dark themes (white on black background).

Page breaks:

Title page:

There is now also a special Kobo version of the ebook, which is only meant for Kobo eInk devices. The regular file works just fine, but some prefer the KePub renderer over the default ePub renderer more (like me). You can find it in the "device specific" folder in the download link. The only difference is that this has <span> tags added that the KePub renderer expects. Without them, remembering chapter progress, bookmarks and annotations are not working.
If you want a Kindle version, just use Calibre or KindleGen to convert to Mobi/KF8.

Please redownload the Pink Eyes ebook!

Found a bug in the Pink Eyes ebook! The last image in it was duplicated. If you have downloaded it after March 31, 2017 you should download it again! Sorry!

I have no idea how it happened tbh.
