update on Brave New Books publishing

I just uploaded my costuming book (B/W, 85 pages) and the booklet (30 pages, 7 color, rest B/W) to try the Brave New Books publisher. Short notes:
-it only accepts manuscripts of 40+ pages
-options for editing your bookcover are limited but sufficient
-if you want to publish online, you need to buy an ISBN (13 euro), even if you already have one! No option for purchasing one by yourself (7 euro) are given.
- the price for my costuming book as e-book is roughly 9 euro with an okay margin, but thinks get expensive quickly with print books: the B/W book will cost app. 20 euro, while the 30 page booklet would cost 18 euro. Most of the cost is going to the publisher, website and ofcourse printing cost.
