The Boards.ie Photography Year Book 2008 - order now!

ThOnda · 2008-11-02 15:04:37

Ladies and gentlemen, the so much discussed and awaited book is here! It is more than two months ago when somebody mentioned, that it would be nice to print a collective book of our photographs.

Yay! And NUMBER TWO in the blurb best sellers. A push might get it to NUMBER ONE - not that we'd be that vain :cool:

I cannot believe my eyes, and I am not talking about the document about PTFE Bertie on TV.

Thank you all, I have never expected that so many books will be purchased. And to be honest, I doubt that we would have more than 50 people and also 50 books.

Another reason to have even bigger respect to all people on Boards and in this wonderful country.

Well, when my copies arrive I'm going to leave one in a guesthouse that has a lot of tourists, along with details of how to purchase, so hopefully we'll pick up a few more there

Next time that won't happen. We've now got our own URL. I was feeling a bit lost too with all the threads floating around (I also noticed other people commenting on the same thing). That's why I got the URLs.

Just need somebody to design a website now and I'll host it for us (or redirect to another host if necessary).

Thanks for changing the posters moral - I notice you put them here too.

To EVERYBODY - go here and print some posters out & paint the country with posters (within reason, of course). See if you can put a couple up at work.

The design is very appealing & of course the images look great.
All of which contribute to the book's success.

You should have it next week, Peace.
Will there be taxes to pay?
I'd have to forewarn my mum, if so.

Excellent.

If anybody gets the book, let me know as soon as possible (PM). I'll go for a spin in the evening to see it

cooligPhoto - Thanks a lot for domain. I was only dreaming about something like that. Brilliant. Just to find a volunteer to make a page now.
