Let’s Publish a Coffee Table Book.

[Kestrana]

Thanks guys.

If you’ve yet to send me your permission forms, I would appreciate at least getting your “choice selection” information this week so that I can have the correct captions.

[wrayvynn]

I just gotta say, this is amazing, and I’m totally honored to be part of it. It’s beautiful.

[ravnostic]

“Choice selection”? I’ve looked around the recent book related entries and the form, and didn’t find what this references. Do you mean captions for the photos?

If so, then mine would be 8 moons of Saturn: While it’s ring plane was nearly parallel to Earth, 8 moons appear in alignment. The dimmest, Mimos, is barely visible immediately to the left of the planet.

Change that to ‘7 moons’ if in the final picture it’s not discernible.

I guess the other can just be called “P.O. Box 118”.

If you mean something else, please clarify. I’d do some more, but this 13 hour on the road each day sheeat is sucking balls, and not in a good way. I’ll be home (and on ‘vacation’ recovering Wednesday.)

The 2nd page of the form where it asks:

Do you want your real name + fark handle or only one of the two?
Do you have titles for you pictures?
Do you want to include a short bio?
Do you want to be on the email mailing list for updates?

Please provide real name/fark handle/email for necessary information based on your selections.

[ravnostic]

Oh, I see. Fark handle’s fine (same as here; I better use my website for photography by then), titles see above or none at all, bio yes and it’s pending, and email yes and you have it. (rav at ravnostic dot etc.) night!

is updated again. It’s actually pretty complete now. Obviously this is a rough draft with just about every photo that was selected in the layout and we will probably cut pictures as we find out who we can’t locate for permission so the page count will go down. In general I like the look and feel of it. If you have any ideas/suggestions make them soon because the sample chapter will probably ship out this week.

It looks fantastic. I really am amazed going through how many truly spectacular images there are from so many different artists. I think it’s a great representation of what we are and what we do.

Layout updated: http://www.kestrana.com/Farkbookv2.pdf

What’s new:
– Consistency with caption placement throughout book
– Added caption information for all forms currently turned in
– Page Numbers
– Introduction
– Minor photo rearrangements
– Invisible adjustments to text boxes

[Kestrana]

Also please email me those preferences ravnostic I need the email for my records plus I’m trying to keep all the information in one place so I can go back and double check only one source when I am proof-reading.

[ravnostic]

Sent, along with other needed documents; let me know if I’ve forgotten anything.

[Kestrana]

QueenBee offered to help me compile a spreadsheet showing who had turned in what in case people are wondering, but I already have that information so I have posted a .pdf here. First column shows people who have responded and their answer, 2nd shows if I have your files, 3rd shows if I have your forms.

[QueenBee]

You have got it all together! If you need help with anything else, let me know.

The layout stuff looks awesome, I just have one little picky thing about myself, my name is one word with a capital B in the middle (like at the end of the essay). If that could be fixed on my picture captions, I’d be super grateful!

[Kestrana]

Sure, no problem, sorry about that.

[QueenBee]

Not a problem in the least. Most people don’t realize it. Thank you! 😀

gah! Someone has to know this person! I’ll be sad if the turtle pic doesn’t make it in!

And I do recognize many of those names, but none that I would have info on…sorry! I hope some of them can be contacted and/or get back to you!
