Pic it forward round 3 revenge of the blurb

Hey guys and girls and welcome to Pic it Forward round three revenge of the blurb sign up blog!

So I’m willing to bet that a fair few of you are scratching your heads wondering just what exactly is pic it forward?

Pic it forward is an on going collaborative photography project we’ve been running on the blogs.


As with all good ideas its pretty simple an individual buys a disposable camera with 36 shots on it, takes 7 photos then posts it onto the next person on the list, this process is repeated until the camera is full of awesome photos, the last person to receive the camera then goes and gets the photos developed and put on to a CD (to make it easier to upload) then they upload them to the net and show them off to the world.

Sound like fun? Why don’t you check out all the progress so far?

SIGN UP!!!

So as you can see the second outing is coming to a close so I figured it was about time to start the third round of fun, want to join in?

Its pretty simple just email:


picitforward@gmail.com

User name
real name
address
willing to buy a camera (you'll be at the start of the route)
willing to print (and you'll be at the end)





in the subject put pic it forward, then put your threadless user name, this will make it easier for to work out who is who later.



Please note that because the majority of our members tend to live in the USA and because of regulations about packaging (I'll be putting together an advice blog at a later date which will explain) international members will be placed at the start and end of routes which means you'll have higher costs for taking part (purchasing/printing the camera plus the postage will be higher) so give it serrious think if you want to take part or not.

REVENGE OF THE BLURB

So your probably wondering why exactly am I calling this round revenge of the blurb? well were going to print a book !

Now I know some of our previous members were a little bit uncomfortable about printing a book so I want to take the change to dispell some fears.

The book is going to be printed through a self publishing service (at the moment it looks like it'll be blurb)

It will most likely only have a few prints, anyone who wants to buy the book will have to sign up to a reserve list and pay a small deposit then the order will be placed.

The goal of the book is for everyone to have something to remember the project by which is why we'll be making great efforts to be able to sell the book at an affordable price.
