Have a look at: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/36378/36378-h/36378-h.htm This was one of my submissions. It may be that the books with small images are older submissions. This one from 2004 could use larger illustrations: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/14384/14384-h/14384-h.htm James Simmons On Mon, Jan 20, 2014 at 9:35 PM, Ken Arromdee <[email protected]> wrote: Hi. I originally just wanted to look in the list archives to see if this has already been discussed but I had to subscribe first for that. I decided I'd post after all. Apologies if this is the wrong list but it's the best list I could find. Anyway, my comment was that when reading books from Gutenberg that have images, the images seem awfully small.
