Morrisseeee

Q. Have you got your 'Boards.ie Book' photo picked out ?

Ans: mmmm....I think I have.

melekalikimaka

yes but who knows closer to the date

I'm really busy at the moment and I haven't been out much with the camera so it's not too difficult a decision to pick a good shot. I have one I'm really happy with that definately going in.

sheesh

I too have one that I would be happy to put in but still looking through the

Ballyman

I too have one picked.

You can start submitting your photos!

MistressPandora

I'm kinda caught between 2 shots...help!

ThOnda

Toss a coin

No, no coin tossing, it is the duty of every member who cannot decide which of their photos to enter to this supreme collaborative effort to submit to the democratic will of the general boards populace and ...........start another poll:D

I downloaded the Blurb software and began using it.
I found it to be quite usefull, ie. you can see how your pic fits in to the frame, and what diff pics will look like:
I presume we are using this frame:


Eg. picture:

That is exactly the one. And I have posted two snapshots how the pages look with and without the white frame inserted by the program.

I like the Papyrus font:



I've enlarged it for clarity......

ThOnda

Could I ask you to forward the page design into the thread Year Book - design of pages, please?

i'm still undecided, was hoping for the book to be portrait because most of my photos, this has mad me realise are landscape.
have it narrowed down to four i think... damn my bad decision making skills.

Hmm...I thought I had, and maybe I still have, but now I'm wondering if I should create one specifically for the book. I haven't picked up the camera in 6 weeks, maybe it's a good enough reason.

BTW is there a deadline? It's just, I'm going on holidays in a week.....!!

ThOnda

The sooner the better. Obviously. We have to chase more than 90 people, create the book, create the text describing this project and order it to have it here before X-mas.

20th October, what do you think?

After that, I could send on PM to people who haven't submitted their entries. Somethink like "last warning" ;-)

dakar

Maybe those of us that are in active discussion about the book could split up the list in this post and PM people as a reminder now, so that the final reminder doen't come as such a shock!:)

Then if there are people whose interest has evaporated, at least we'll have an idea now, rather than find that out just before the book goes to blurb. I'll happily take the first 15 on the list.

One quick question(probably stating the obvious but just to make sure:p) As this is a yearbook,I assume we are only submitting photos taken this year,yes?

ThOnda

You can send PM to max. 5 people per minute. Well, I might try that during the weekend.

Well Deleted User, no. The book has year only because the optimistic view that there could be another one next year. It is just blank canvas you can use to present yourself and to please people who are willing to give some money to charity with something nice and special (a picture, not a pint of the black stuff).

As thebaz mentioned, the description and signature is also under your control, so you could mention your contact details. However the book shouldn't be a marketing tool, so please, be reasonable. I would prefer e-mail address or link to your private pages. Link to page "www.iwillshootyourwedding.com" would be very very distracting. Thank you.
