I remember there being on on Russia and one on california. So I was thinking,we could do one on LP members lives. We have a diverse group here from all over the world so I am certain we could get a great bunch of photos together. Than my idea was to get the book printed and whoever wants to buy one can. The price would of course depend on how many people we get that want to buy them. I am not doing this to make money so the cost will be the price of the book plus whatever it costs to ship them based on weight to your location. The price of the books start at 19.99 from the Apple Store. Im doing this through iPhoto since I have already put together a few books with them and love the quality. So what do you guys think? Could this be done? Anyone up for it?

Originally Posted By peeaanuut Ok. That is all I needed. one other person. lol Ok here are the details: Date: 6/14/08 saturday - This is an honor thing so please dont send pics from other days. Location: Wherever you are that day Theme: Whats happening now? Explanation: Carry a camera with you that day and capture images of your day. they can be funny, serious, strange, happy, odd or whatever you want. I would prefer they not be photoshopped but that would be up to you. Send photos to FAQ: 1. Where do i send the pictures? - I have set up a Gmail account. please send them to lplife08@gmail.com Please include your screenname in the subject so that I can easily find and mark photos. Please do not send more than 5 photos at a time. Also I would prefer no more than 15 photos max from any one person. Unless you photos are just so amazing and I have to see them 2. Will all my photos get printed? - No. But at least one of yours will be printed for sure. maybe more. 3. Do you need any help? - Actually I do. I need photos of course, but I also need someone to design a logo if possible and someone to write a forward for the book. Also a small description of LP and the community for the flaps. 4. How long will this take? - That all depends on how quickly I get submissions. Also it takes 7-10 days to ship the books. So the best way would be for me to get a bulk shipment and than send them out from there. That would be the best of the price of the book to come down. 5. Why is the date so far out? - I want people to have a good heads up and be able to plan if needed. 6. Anything else? - Nothing else I can think of. But ask questions if you got em.

Originally Posted By peeaanuut I want to clarify that these do not need to be pictures of you. They can be pictures of whatever you see. And they do not have to be disney related either. Unless you want them to be of course.
