Any update on this. Who's in etc. I'm a newbie so I'm probably asking dumb questions.

First plan is simple - register your interest. Reply on this thread and it's a first come, first served basis like most things.

On that basis I'm probably in. But is that fair? Some really active boards member didn't see the post until quite late. Would it not be better to do it on a lottery basis? Or if it's to represent the best of boards.ie even on a poll of final submissions from everybody who was interested?

Or if the aim is to get our pictures in print what about two volumes if there is enough interest?

Attached is a Spreadsheet of those who have indicated they wish to be in the 2011 Book. Final Spreadsheet is attached to final post. It is in order & has the date posted.


The origins of the Book were to have work in print. Then we added a bit on as a donation to SSF. It has always been that anyone can have an image in as log as they buy a copy. The content is up to the individual, with a caveat on it being for general publication. From past years about half of those who register an interest will carry through.

There are inquiries being made to have the book published in a more economical manner. This could increase sales.

Added you to the spreadsheet list, which is just recording who has expressed an interest.

Some of the normal names are still missing, most notably that of DeVore who has been involved in each book thus far. Each year the list, at this stage, has been about this long. We get a lot who then drop out.

DeVore

Me Me Me!! Sorry I havent had the luxury of reading the forum regularly lately!
Sure do want to be involved!


Thanks!

DeV.

If possible, I would like to see a reserved page as well for the 32 counties camera that has been going around for... um... nearly 2 years now

Think it would be cool to showcase in the book... Any objections to this?

I cant remember where I read it but someone posted an estimate that it would be finished march/april 2012 judging by how it had gone so far, so it would seem that it wouldn't be ready by the time the photobook is right? (considering the last years release time)

PixelTrawler

Add me please.

Also, just to repeat this one more time... If you sign up for this and end up submitting an image: read out the following mantra out loud a couple of times...

I promise to buy at least copy of the book if my image is in it.

Okay, one more time, repeat after me:

I promise to buy at least copy of the book if my image is in it.

I think we'll finish the list of interested parties now.

What will happen is that we will be asking people to submit photos, there's going to be a strict deadline for photo submissions. Followed by payment for a book very shortly after it. Those who do not pay will have their photo removed from the book and anyone on a waiting list will be asked to submit a photo.

At this moment we are going through printers to see who can give us the better deal in terms of print quality and how many people we can get into the book. We hope that this years book will be bigger and better than ever.

kensutz

Given that you've been in it before and circumstances I don't see why not. We'll stick you down on the list.

CabanSail

Well that makes an even 100.

Thread Closed.

Re-opening this thread as there have been some that have pulled out.

There are now a few more places available.

87 pages filled. 13 pages looking for an owner.

Is this for charity? if it is, then I will put in a piece

Tiriel

All proceeds of the book are going to the Santa Strike Force - who buy and distribute gifts to hospitals and care-centres at Christmas for kids that can't be at home.

We have 10 spaces left that we would really like to fill - some people have had to pull out for various genuine reasons and we would love to be able to fill the book and raise as much as we can for SSF.

Get in touch if you'd like to be involved

Misstaken - you're in!

waldo

Please include me if there is a place left. PM me with paypal details etc.
