How does the PDML Annual rank in their quantities of books ordered?

Yeah, just one, the busiest one, in my office studio. I had to expel
all the software ref manuals (Photoshop, et al) out of it to make
enough room for the "pure" photobooks.

Of course the 3-vol set of Exotique (1950's fetish magazine) is a bit
suspect as a pure photobook. ;) I guess it will have to find a special
shelf.

I also take up a shelf in the livingroom and one in the main library.
I only started collecting a few years ago, and I still limit myself to
subjects of specific interest for new books. My used book pusher
generally sells me anything that is brought in, so I have some great
stuff by Kertesz, the Ansel Adams "bible", etc.

Don't do yourself down (even jokingly) on this.  I suspect there are
very few people in the world who could (and/or would) work with the
disparate elements that make up one of these compilations and produce
the coherent work that you have consistently presented.  I hope there
is not one of us who does not appreciate the double edged success you

I received mine in Mississauga on Tuesday afternoon. Was busy and only
now have I had a good proper read of it.

It sets the bar higher: great design -- the best yet -- and terrific
photos. The editorial text is sobering but inspirational.

I admit that I miss the playfulness and slightly wonky random fun of a
couple of the earlier editions, but the obligatory guest cormorant is
there and there are, of course, the quotations, as droll as ever.

Yeah, it's really the best of the series I think, great layout, love the 
simplicity of the photo pages - artful but not intrusive. cute layout 
for the quotes ... love the cormorant shot , but did hope for a couple 
more showing up in unexpected places - like counting 'nina's in the NY 
Times Theatre section Hirschfeld drawings in the old days.


and .. all that stuff bruce said too :-)

My 2014 book arrived a couple of weeks ago … the 2010 and 2011 books which I 
thought I had but didn't arrived today. Nice work!

I agree with Ann—the 2014 book layout is terrific, best of the bunch so far. 
Congrats Mark on such a spiff job!

Re: PDML book 2014 - Let me know when you get your copy

According to the tracking number, mine arrived at the FedEx facility in
Troutdale, OR at 4:56am this morning.

Google Maps says it will take them about 43 hours for a truck to reach
Raleigh (RTP). I don't figure they're going to drive straight through.
It will probably get delivered to various regional hubs along the way to
be unloaded  reloaded onto a truck going to the next closest regional hub.

It's promised for May 28. If it gets here a day or so early that's good.
A day or so late might not be so good.

Re: PDML book 2014 - Let me know when you get your copy

[mike wilson]

Arrived, via Holland and Germany.  The usual excellent work from all
parties.  Bought the dustcover version this time but I think I prefer
the imagewrap.  Also not sure if I prefer a fixed design or the new
look every year.  There hasn't been a bad one yet and, as it's
someone else's hard work, I am emphatically not complaining.

However. next year, I _insist_ on being a proofreader.  Multiple
quotes from Bill Robb I can tolerate; duplicate ones.

Mine's been dispatched. Might get it tomorrow, otherwise will be

If it were available I might buy the Premium version.
But would you need to do “a limited run”? Can’t you just specify that one 
purchase option should be Premium? 
I know that some Blurb options require that at least one copy of a given 
version must be purchased within x weeks of your upload; I’ll commit to buying 
a copy if that is what you are looking at…

 runs the Global Health Initiative program. There *may* even be space
 this year for a section of photo information using the comments
 submitted with the image uploads.

 There's light at the end of the tunnel. Perhaps a week  to 10 days
 before upload and another week after that until you'll be able to
 order it? No promises. I don't think there'll be any problem having
 copies in hand at GFM at the end of May.

 The submission period ended some time back and now we're in the

 What is new is that a couple of weeks ago I received a mailing from

 anonymous millionaire (most likely) supporter of theirs has agreed to
 match (that is, effectively double) every donation they receive before
 March 15. I emailed the Powers That Be to ask if we could take
 advantage of this while still directing our donation to the Global
 Health Initiative - since the PDML is an international group I feel
 quite strongly that our donation should go to a program with
 international scope. Friday I received the reply that we could
 definitely direct our donation to the Global Health Initiative but not
 the matching funds that come from the anonymous donor. I suppose it's
 not ideal but it's certainly nothing to sneeze at: We raise $500.00
 (about what our annual donation comes to), it still goes to the
 international program we support, and an extra five hundred bucks
 magically goes to their cancer research in general. What's not to
 like?

 Well, the deadline, of course. We haven't even finished putting the
 book together at this point, much less sold any copies, and the
 deadline's four days away. So here's my plan: I'll write them a check
 for $500.00 when I meet with them on Friday so we get the matching
 donation. I'll apply the book sales toward my $500 as they come in. If
 sales fall short of $500 the difference will be on me (this is pretty
 much how it works out every year, actually: we make $400-$450 and I
 round up to $500 with my own donation). If we go over $500 I'll spent
 the extra on cookies and beer (just kidding - I'll donate that as
 well).

 So that's the plan unless there are any strong, well-reasoned
 objections from burly guys who live close enough to come over here and
 beat me up.

 Hello everyone. Just wanted to post the latest on the 2013 PDML Photo
 Annual.

 The submission period ended some time back and now we're in the
 traditional trying to coax/cajole/plead with the editors to get their
 votes in on the photos that we'll be using. Nothing different there :)

 What is new is that a couple of weeks ago I received a mailing from
 Dana-Farber about a promotion/incentive that seemed interesting: An
 anonymous millionaire (most likely) supporter of theirs has agreed to
 match (that is, effectively double) every donation they receive before
 March 15. I emailed the Powers That Be to ask if we could take

Re: PDML book news

[Bruce Walker]

My wife's oatmeal cookie recipe is very low on sugar and with more
crunchiness than most such recipes.

BTW, the reason I tried beer and cookies together is because I can be
a slow beer drinker and the dessert course may arrive while I still
have half a glass left.

Seems an ideal partnership and one, due to your well handled and timely

Hello everyone. Just wanted to post the latest on the 2013 PDML Photo
Annual.

The submission period ended some time back and now we're in the
traditional trying to coax/cajole/plead with the editors to get their
votes in on the photos that we'll be using. Nothing different there :)

What is new is that a couple of weeks ago I received a mailing from
Dana-Farber about a promotion/incentive that seemed interesting: An
anonymous millionaire (most likely) supporter of theirs has agreed to
match (that is, effectively double) every donation they receive before
March 15. I emailed the Powers That Be to ask if we could take
advantage of this while still directing our donation to the Global
Health Initiative - since the PDML is an international group I feel
quite strongly that our donation should go to a program with
international scope. Friday I received the reply that we could
definitely direct our donation to the Global Health Initiative but not
the matching funds that come from the anonymous donor. I suppose it's
not ideal but it's certainly nothing to sneeze at: We raise $500.00
(about what our annual donation comes to), it still goes to the
international program we support, and an extra five hundred bucks
magically goes to their cancer research in general. What's not to
like?

Well, the deadline, of course. We haven't even finished putting the
book together at this point, much less sold any copies, and the
deadline's four days away. So here's my plan: I'll write them a check
for $500.00 when I meet with them on Friday so we get the matching
donation. I'll apply the book sales toward my $500 as they come in. If
sales fall short of $500 the difference will be on me (this is pretty
much how it works out every year, actually: we make $400-$450 and I
round up to $500 with my own donation). If we go over $500 I'll spent
the extra on cookies and beer (just kidding - I'll donate that as
well).

So that's the plan unless there are any strong, well-reasoned
objections from burly guys who live close enough to come over here and
beat me up.

I'm skinny, have weak powers of reasoning, don't live close to you and would 
never beat you up in any case.

So what the hell. Go for it. Sounds like a great plan.

Echoing the thoughts of others: with beer goes chips, not cookies. Mind you, 
with a nice stout cookies might just work!

;-)

cheers,

 We've sold 45 copies so far, not including my 3 proof copies (and a

 Hospital Solid Tumor Service, if you must know) and Carlos and several
 other Dana-Farber people were there. Most of them had heard about the
 book and everyone who saw it was very impressed. General opinion
 seems to be that this is the best one yet so I'm hoping to push for a
 little more publicity this time out. We've been assigned out own
 official contact at Dana-Farber and I'd like to send a copy to her, as
 well as one or two copies to various media contacts. See if we can
 raise our profile a little, ya know?

 We've had a few donations to this end. Even five dollars would help;
 If you can kick in a couple of bucks

Done!  Ordered the hard cover with dust jacket.

The GMA code doesn't seem to work outside the USA.  When I tried I got
two error messages:

* Sorry, this promotion cannot be be applied to books you did not
author.
* Sorry, the promotion code you entered isn't available in your selected
currency. Make sure you've selected the right currency.

So I changed the currency to $US, which got rid of the second message
but I was still stuck with the first.

No matter!  Looking forward to its arrival.



Got the books you did not author error message in the USA as well.

Ordered Softcover  Hardcover, Dust Jacket.

 Bonuses:
 If you order today and enter the code GMA (must be all upper-case
 letters) in the discount code box during checkout you'll get a 25%
 discount!

 If you buy the hardcover with dust jacket version of the book (not
 the ImageWrap) you get bonus photos on the inner flaps of the dust
 jacket, one by Rick Womer and one by Carl Gjersem.

 More information:
 I want to express my appreciation to all who donated to the book
 promotional fund. Most people contributed $5.00 and we got $340.00
 total. With the 10% volume discount and the 25% GMA discount (yes,
 Blurb allowed both discounts) I was able to order a dozen books for
 the price of 10, including shipping costs. I think there's even a bit
 left over in the kitty to allow me postage money for sending *out*
 review copies when I get them.

 I'm looking for suggestions/ideas for promotion. Print magazine
 reviews are pretty much out of the question: They already get more
 review samples than they have time for and we'd be just an tiny fish
 in a big sea (unless we can get someone on the inside to help - anyone
 owed any favors by low people in high places?)

 I'm also offering the ebook version on line for $6.00 through my own
 web site at the moment. I've worked out a deal to offer it through the
 Apple iTunes store through one of their official distributors, but I
 won't be able to finish the paperwork and details until the end of the
 semester - things are getting busy now.

Done!  Ordered the hard cover with dust jacket.

The GMA code doesn't seem to work outside the USA.  When I tried I got
two error messages:

* Sorry, this promotion cannot be be applied to books you did not
author.
* Sorry, the promotion code you entered isn't available in your selected
currency. Make sure you've selected the right currency.

So I changed the currency to $US, which got rid of the second message
but I was still stuck with the first.

No matter!  Looking forward to its arrival.

Cheers

Brian

That's disappointing but not surprising, I suppose. GMA stands for
Good Morning America a morning television program over here.

I'm in for two imagewraps. My $45 Groupon code from the other day
worked, but that's no longer available to anyone who didn't buy in at
the Groupon site a couple of days ago.

The following codes SHOULD still work, on purchases of 2 or more books
through April 27. I wasn't able to test them, because they didn't
combine with my Groupon code.

USD $ coupon: BLURBMOM
GBP £ coupon: BLURBMOM1
EUR € coupon: BLURBMOM2
CAD $ coupon: BLURBMOM3
AUD $ coupon: BLURBMOM4

Done!  Ordered the hard cover with dust jacket.

The GMA code doesn't seem to work outside the USA.

 That's disappointing but not surprising, I suppose. GMA stands for
 Good Morning America a morning television program over here.

I bet you can get a list for the low, low price of $6. The price of

I lucked out, and my photograph is in the Blurb preview.

3 questions --
for the e book, can I pay with paypal?
Is it  PDF?  Can I have it on my Windoze machine that runs XP?  
Where is the table of contents?  Is it in the preview and it's just so 
little I cant see it?


The Preview looks super!...

NOt sure how much help I can do in terms of promoting, but there will be 
a small
core of friends and fans I can usually rely on to shell out a few 
bucks... certainly, at least, for the e book.


Terrific job, Mark -- Especially handsome cover too.

Bonuses:
If you order today and enter the code GMA (must be all upper-case
letters) in the discount code box during checkout you'll get a 25%
discount! 


If you buy the hardcover with dust jacket version of the book (not
the ImageWrap) you get bonus photos on the inner flaps of the dust
jacket, one by Rick Womer and one by Carl Gjersem.

More information:
I want to express my appreciation to all who donated to the book
promotional fund. Most people contributed $5.00 and we got $340.00
total. With the 10% volume discount and the 25% GMA discount (yes,
Blurb allowed both discounts) I was able to order a dozen books for
the price of 10, including shipping costs. I think there's even a bit
left over in the kitty to allow me postage money for sending *out*
review copies when I get them.

I'm looking for suggestions/ideas for promotion. Print magazine
reviews are pretty much out of the question: They already get more
review samples than they have time for and we'd be just an tiny fish
in a big sea (unless we can get someone on the inside to help - anyone
owed any favors by low people in high places?)

I'm also offering the ebook version on line for $6.00 through my own
web site at the moment. I've worked out a deal to offer it through the
Apple iTunes store through one of their official distributors, but I
won't be able to finish the paperwork and details until the end of the
semester - things are getting busy now.

Note the following from my order confirmation:

 Thank you for your order. Please retain this email for reference.
 Please note that as of April 13, 2011 we'll be upgrading our standard white 
 end sheets to a higher quality mid-grey colored end sheet that's 30% thicker. 
 If you'd like to order more books with the current white end sheet please 
 place your order by April 11, 2011. Get more details in this blog post: 
 http://blog.blurb.com/index.php/2011/03/30/new-higher-quality-end-sheets-coming-soon-2

Don't know if I care one way or the other, but would have been nice to know 
there is an option of sorts. Oh well.

what is going on with that?  It can't be my settings, because if it were

I think it might have something to do with G-mail   anyone???

I'm not sure what's causing that problem, because it doesn't happen
for me. If I reply to Dan's email in Gmail's web interface, it quotes
everything in his message, including the earlier quoted material from
me. I couldn't find anything obvious in Gmail's settings that might be
causing the problem.

Are you using the Gmail web interface, or a mail application?

One possibility: The material Dan quoted appears below his signature.
Some mail applications suppress quoting signatures (presumably
everything after the --).

No. It's an ebook, not a PDF.

Yes, you just need ebook reader software. Adobe has a free ebook

I didn't put the TOC in the preview because I wanted to emphasize the

I was offered all the credit card options when I ordered one just a few

My mail is Netscape 7.0  Communicator...  I have a pop server on road 
runner...  but I seldom if ever go on line to use it..
I just download everything to my computer and don't leave it on line... 
everything comes in as plain text except some HTML is

treated as an attachment.

Not only doesn't it strip out everyting below someones signature line 
but I sometimes do that manually myself...


I don't think it is stripping out anything below a sig line in the mail 
I'm getting from others...
I have one good friend who uses gmail and am always annoyed taht when I 
get mail from her
in response to something I wrote  all I get is her response - which is 
very problimatical and I have to go
back to my original mail and copy and paste it in to read it while I'm 
writing - having totally forgotten what I said.


example -  I write - I'll meet you at the corner of 5th and 34th at noon 
on saturday


and the reply (that comes in hours later) says -- ok  and nothing 
else. :-(

that's exactly it; two hyphens is a standard (actually borrowed from 
Usenet) to denote a signature block; Dan combined top-posting with a 
signature line, which put the entire quoted material into the signature 
area; Ann's email client is trying to be efficient by stripping what it 
thinks are signatures when quoting for replies

For me, GMail seems to take everything after the two dashes and space
delimiter and hides it, leaving, in its place, the message  Show
quoted text -.  If I click on that message, it restores what it hid
(usually only signatures).
