Another suggestion:
Perhaps we could convince Brian to host a "Super PUG". We could all
contribute (say) 3 images from 2018 albeit at slightly higher
resolutions. They could then be presented in the usual PUG format &
accessed by PDMLers in their own countries where they could arrange to
have photobooks printed or even do it themselves. The Quotations for
2018 have already been posted. A nominal charge to cover expenses could
be collected up front with the images.
What do you think?

Not a bad idea but I think most PDMLers like the idea of a coffee

I created a sample gallery so you can see what I am talking about.

I hate to see the PDML Annual die after its fine 10-year run. I
cannot, will not, volunteer to step in to try and follow on in
Mark’s path, recognizing that Mark not only did very fine work, but
also had able assistance from Bill and Doug.
So, here are my thoughts about an alternative venue for us to share
our Best Of 2018 images.
I have a Zenfolio account, unlimited storage. I already pay the
annual fee, no extra cost for adding another Gallery to my collection.
Are are my thoughts on configuration of a Gallery for our sharing
purposes:
Access limited, password protected. No real need for this, but
possible in case anyone is nervous about putting they best stuff out
there on the web. I could also leave the Gallery open and password
protect access to individual images at the owner's request.
No Expiration date for the Gallery.
Downloading not allowed.
Max viewing size Zenfolio’s XXLarge = 1550x960
Titles etc Not searchable
Metadata viewable?
Show Number of Visitors to the Gallery?
Do Not allow viewers to order prints (again, I can adjust this
or any of the other parameters image by image if so requested by the
contributor.)
If this seems like a reasonable/useful option, then the way forward
would be:
A - comment on the proposed parameters
B - I don’t see a way for others to directly upload. Send me up
to 5 images that you would like to have included. Let me know Image
Title and Caption (caption = your name or email or other
identifier.) I will load them to the site, untouched, no editing,
you submit what you want displayed.
I leave town for 6 weeks on 25 February, so 20 February would be a
reasonable first deadline.
