Ditto to all the comments - your work on this project Mark and Scott and Bill is very much appreciated!

For the church-trip project I did, I made all three versions available: softcover, hardcover with dust jacket, and hardcover "image wrap." And I ordered samples of all of these. The 30+ copies we sold were a mix of these. My own personal preference is the "image wrap" and that is the version I bought for myself and a couple of gifts. The cover image will not be as sharp, but it is ok quality, and I figure it will be much more durable. What I would really like to see, and many on the Blurb Blog agree with me, would be a version with an image wrap cover wrapped with a dust jacket.

Your hard work is appreciated and I'm looking forward to seeing this.
Ditto.
I'll also be interested in  the cost.

It's going to be $33.95 for the softcover version, $45.95 for hardcover. This is a $4.00 markup from what Blurb charges, all of which will be donated to the National Childhood Cancer Foundation.

There's also a "Hardcover, ImageWrap" option that will be $49.95. This has the cover image printed directly on the hardcover, rather than using a dust jacket like the standard hardcover. I've purchased standers hardcover and softcover versions of my own Blurb book, but I've never tried the "ImageWrap" version. It's expensive, so it must be good, right? ;-)

BTW: I can arrange for orders of 10 or more in a batch at a 10% discount (and a significant savings in shipping cost), but they all have to be shipped to a single address and they won't let us mix and match hardcover and softcover for the discount.
