Actually it's virtually the same as Stan's suggestion with an option to download & print if desired. I know many are happy looking at images on screen but others prefer printed stuff like books, magazines & newspapers. Perhaps there's a simple way to put a gallery (even Stan's) into PDF format?

Sounds complicated. Stan’s proposal is much more workable. And why print books? 
We’ve been there and Mark has done that. Time to move on.

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 table book.

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.
