Thanks Brian, Nick, Bruce, Paul, Jack ... > > Did you use the Blurb software or some other layout program? The Blurb software. It's clunky but functional. If I were to make a habit of this, I'd definitely try and get a copy of inDesign, or some other real layout software. If I had time I'd work on improving my process for optimizing my jpegs for the size I need. I expect that with a bit of practice I could streamline the flow so that I could almost just automate the process. I have some interest from some of the local musicians to do a book of photos of them. I'm most interested in using it as advertising to hopefully get some paid gigs out of it, rather than trying to get any income off the 10-50 copies I might sell as vanity photos for the musicians. But if each of them shows it off to a bunch of people, maybe some of those people would hire me for more profitable gigs. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
