That’s on Amazon, as far as I know. We turn on global and then Amazon takes it from there. They may just be behind right now and dealing with larger issues.

Ditto. I can handle B&W, but softcover just is not good at all, those POD covers are pretty bad quality. If it was on POD offer (multiple options: B&W, soft/hard/cover OR Color, soft/hard/cover), I'd prefer to go with color/hardcover with every book.

You guys ought to have a chat with Amazon. If you are on their site and type in "Dungeon Fantasy Spells" you are given a bunch of D&D hits, despite the fact that that is the title of the book as listed on Amazon. And, even when you add "GURPS" to the search the book shows up several items down the list, below items that have totally different titles.

Amazon's businesses and algorithms decide on how their system works. When it comes to print-on-demand works, we have zero places to turn to. I cannot stress enough: The only way those systems handle this issue is by sales volume. Amazon's computers are in search of one thing -- profit -- and no amount of email will change this.

How do search results on Amazon get "fixed" to be more favorable to GURPS? Sales. If you have friends who play GURPS with you, and they have missed out on some of the books that are now only available in PDF and as GURPS On Demand titles, please send them to this page -- http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/ondemand/ -- and ask them to buy a book or two.

Two new books have been added to the program:

* GURPS Fantasy Bestiary - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1556348894

* GURPS Time Travel - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1556348886

Those just went live late on Friday. Much of our staff is off for the weekend. I'm sure they'll add the new titles as soon as they can.

...Let me rephrase: Nothing has updated for me on the GURPS on Demand page since April 1st, 2020.

And no, that's not an April Fool's.
