Hopefully this is even better:

Not only did I come up with some improvements, but Ann also made some suggestions.
I see you followed one :-) Naughty is a much better page
companion for Liking than the thistle..
Whether or not it could be better still, I think that it's time to give up on
polishing it and ship it.
Looks great! And, yes, it's time to stop polishing and ship. Too much
tinkering always spoils projects, I find.
very true and I agree... it really does help at first , though, to
have a bunch of input from list friends -- I felt I got
lots of help with my Critters calendar too.
Now start working on the *next* one!
I already sort of have. I'm talking to musician friends about putting together
a book of photos of musicians, in the hopes that that would encourage them, and
their friends (or at least their moms) to buy one. The goal of those books
would be more to get people who might pay me for gigs to see my work.
I do have a question for Mark. I was working on the assumption that I want
lightroom to produce the jpeg in the size to be used by the blurb software,
rather than having blurb resize the photos. Was I correct?
I don't know what Mark is going to say, but whatever you use I think the
way to maintain total aesthetic control over the pages in
any of these online book things is to make file take up a whole page to
drop in, full bleed, to the pages -
Nice thing about lulu over blurb is that you don't actually have to buy
a copy at all for yourself if you don't want to... you can just
download the pdf and proof it... it is a bit less expensive than blurb,
too.
I'd like to do another book as well, but not up to it just yet.
Congrats, Larry - hope you get some work!
