What if you put the type up at the top?:



Ignore my font, I used it cause I didn't have the one you used.

I'm cool with also pawning it off to random popular photography blogs, for exposure.

You know what, Dorkroom only at first is probably the better way to go about it.

Option 2 but change the font to something slimmer. I like the serif.

Clarifying question: For these submissions do you want them to be proofed to print? Or once we know what's getting used we send high res / exported for printing versions?

I'd say it's like that yea, post the flickr links here. Then when the dust settles, provide properly sized/proofed photos.

Let's leave the acceleration joke in the internet domain. No need to make it real by printing it on paper.

You should provide 2-3 different layouts that people can pick and choose to populate their photos in. That way we avoid a schizophrenic book while keeping it looking different enough.

We have until dec 5 for submissions yea?

I bet my 150MB photos pale in comparison to the LF guys'.
But yea, mine are RGB, I just remembered. It's a drive link so I can swap them out for CMYK versions.

Looks pretty cool. I would consider aligning the caption with the left side of the photo, instead of centering it, and maybe use regular font for names instead of bold. Maybe having just one line of text. In my mind captions are meant to be unobtrusive, instead of being central to the page composition.


Yea I agree with this. Smaller non bold font.
Centered or left aligned, doesn't matter to me they both look good.

By the way, for all the international shipments, remember to do the customs declaration right.

That means marking them as a Gift right? I really don't feel like paying brokerage fees.

How do you know where to ship the zines btw? I didn't see an address field when I singed up.

I think he has to send out an address survey later when he's ready to ship them. I don't think the printing is done yet.

Ah yea I remember you said this already on irc. Totally forgot about it.

Rest of the money should be used to open up the official Dorkroom gallery in whatever city it's cheap enough to buy such a space in
