No, just make sure to tell us when there are new ebooks. E.g via email notifications as already for the updates andor a sticky thread here...

We do send out email notifications whenever new eBooks are available, but you have to have email notification switched on for the relevant section (most subscribers turn this off). We also announce them on the Feed and on the Home page, not to mention that month's update! Wink


Well, I have email notification switched on for all sections (just checked too), but I've only gotten notified for 'monthly updates' so far, so if the author doesn't mention the ebooks being updated I don't notice. That was the case for the Catalan ebook for example.

I appreciate the new style ebooks very much. Please continue.
  
What kind of proof is that?

Since this thread was last active we've added a number of the new-style playable eBooks, and have kept all the recent ones completely up-to-date.  Smiley
Sometimes this has even involved major changes, two recent examples being the Catalan and Classical Dragon eBooks.
However, I get the impression this has passed almost unnoticed, we've received no comments here, and I've seen almost nothing on the Forum. The number of downloads is still much less than for the PDF eBooks, although this might well be because the playable ones can only be used with ChessBase, thus requiring a lot of work for Linux and Mac users.
Should we discontinue?  Undecided


By all means continue! They're absolutely great!

I have noted that a new classical and other dragons ebook is available for download with the November Update of GM Ward.

Actually it is just a minor upgrade (2 extra games), and at the moment I just publicize the completely new eBooks on the Home Page, rather than the 'newish' ones.

Thanks for the ebook. How do I open a game quotation? 

Ctrl + enter in the latest ChessBase, simply enter in previous versions. Smiley

Tony,

I have noted that a new classical and other dragons ebook is available for download with the November Update of GM Ward.

Could you kindly publicite in the main page of chesspublishing.com in the same way that the modern-pirc one?

I have added an sticky post in the dragon forum Cheesy

Thanks for the work!

Best regards, Fausto.

Yes, now that summer is coming to an end (and I have more time) I will be making some more of these and the Pirc is a good candidate. Wink

I like the playable e-book format, it's more efficient to use because I don't have to move my eyes all the time between the book and the board and seek again where the move was in the book or pdf.

I prefer the eBooks myself over the pdf files. I download the pdf files just so if I have a need, they are available. Otherwise, I rather much prefer the eBooks.
