Converting repeated emails into FAQs: Today's = How to Get Figures/Details from 2009 GEBA paper

OK I am now officially completely driven insane by email.  As part of my attempt to reduce email communication with people I am going to start posting some of the emails I get often into FAQs.

Today's email relates to the 2009 paper on a "Phylogeny driven genomic encyclopedia of bacteria and archaea" for which I was the senior and corresponding author.  The email is asking for higher resolution figures that were published in the paper.  This person and many others have asked for a higher res. version of our "genome tree" which was Figure 1.  Here is the version from the paper


But alas, as a JPG when you zoom in you can't see the text very well.  And about 30 or so people, maybe more, have asked for a higher res. version.  Well, the simplest way to get this figure with legible fonts when zoomed in is to get the PDF of the paper and zoom in on it.  But that may not be for everyone - so here is a link to the PDF of the figure that I posted on postures (Blogger does not allow PDF uploads).  I also posted PDFs of the other figures.
