This is a note to try to gage interest in members participating in a "vanity
press" publication ... so to speak. I have tried my hand at publishing through
Lulu.com and have found the process ... interesting. Now I am thinking that it
might be possible to put together a book based on photographs by PhotoForum list
members. There would be no cost to anyone unless a hard copy of the book is
purchased. We could make a PDF copy of the book available for all contributors.
I'm thinking right now of a 7x9 inch book (landscape) with each contributor
allowed two images (or 2 more if on 4 consecutive pages)(so the book does not
get too big). I am not sure how copyright issues would be dealt with. If this is
a concern I'd say don't participate.
This is a trial balloon deal. If things get too serious all attempts at pulling
someting like this together will be cancelled. Last thing we need is an overly
managed and complicated process. If too many headaches are presented ... bye, bye!
what do some of you all think?
