This is a cool idea, Juan.
I could also see something like a PDML "annual" from PUG or PESO
submissions, or maybe a GFM highlights book. Folks could always print
their own, too, on some of the other services around the 'net.

Hi Juan ...
Thanks for the link. I may take a run over to fastbooks later in the week.
They're quite close by Casa Belinkoff and near where I often travel.
I'd certainly be interested in a copy. I think it's a great idea! Good
luck ... keep us all posted.

A question for you PDMLers: I had the chance to see books made by
fastbackbooks.com today, and I'm thinking about self editing one with
some of my photographs. Their quality is very nice, they are
hardcover, cloth bound little books.
Now, this only becomes worthwhile pricewise if I can order at least 20
copies, hopefully more.
So my question is: would anyone here be interested in buying a little
8x6.5" hardcover with, say, 25 or so of my photographs in it, for
around $45-$50? I'm just interested in having an idea if this is
doable; I promise that I won't even contact any of you individually as
a result of this thread. If the book happens all I'll do is to post a
Friday for sale message here.
I realize you can get better books by better photographers, for less
money at Borders--that's why I need to ask. My goal with this btw is
not to make money--ideally I would break even after the design costs,
and end up with a few copies myself to give away.
