I understand that -- I swear, all I do around here is just keep repeating myself, and nobody gets it.
When I say that for me it's the visual, artistic aspect of that particular font, people keep coming at me telling me that the font is "wrong", that the way I'm doing it is "wrong", and that, here, go try this font instead -- despite the fact that using that other font virtually nullifies the entire point of what I'm trying to accomplish here (which clearly nobody gets).
And even when I specifically say -- on multiple occasions -- that "sales" and "making money" aren't the most important thing to me, everyone keeps coming back to me to tell me how lame iBooks is, what a small market they have, and if I would only do things differently I'd have so much more sales and make so much more money.
Money, money, money. Y'all want me to destroy my own art, and sell my own soul, all for money, money, money. You do have a point about getting ebook-making right (and on my next project that won't be an issue at all for me), but you're all completely wrong, you've totally missed the point of LIVING, if you think that getting ebook-making "right" -- that is, putting sales and winning popularity contests above all else -- is more important than getting LIFE right.
Rosebud, folks, rosebud. :/
