We are the cubers - Book entirely dedicated to speedcubing

[kuisless]

Hi all, the new edition of the book will be available in 5 days. A lot of updates and new articles (15% more contents).

Note : the number of pages is the same, but the font is smaller and I remove the AI generated pictures.

Hello,

Thanks for your comments. You're right, some of the illustrative pictures have been generated by AI.

As an amateur writer, I spent a lot of time considering using real photos, but I wasn’t sure if it was allowed or if I would run into image rights issues. Additionally, hiring a professional illustrator seemed way too expensive. In the end, I tried a version of the book without illustrations, but it felt much duller to me. That’s why I decided to keep these AI-generated photos.

However, all the content and infographics were created by my own hands.

You’re actually the fourth person to comment on this since I decided to showcase these images. I didn’t think it would matter so much.

This english book hasn’t been printed yet. Do you prefer a version without images rather than one with AI-generated images?



Thanks for the feedback!

Real photos can often be found on the Creative Commons website, and they all have licenses, so you can filter them by license type and find ones that have share-alike commercial use licenses. These would allow you to print and sell the images in your books!

I did, I just saw that after I saw your post on this thread. I was asleep when all the other craziness happened, aside from the very start of it.

Salut, la boutique atoutcube a un contrat d'exclusivité pour commercialiser l'édition française. Le prix de vente est de 19.99€. il est en particulier dû au coût d'impression affolant d'un livre en couleur.

For the time being, the French edition is exclusively available from Atoutcubes. The English edition, on the other hand, is available on the TheBookEdition platform under the title “We Are the Cubers.”

Hi, the 2026 edition of this speedcubing book is now available on amazon (We are the cubers). It's very cheaper than the previous one (9.99 vs 19.99) and available on ebook.

I hope you'll like it.
