Sorry, gonna update it.

ONLY 2 PHOTOS.

I'm gonna keep the same layout and stuff from the previous 2 books I did.
But instead of being able to get more than 2 photos, because of invisible categories, now you can only send 2 photos period.

2 photos only, if you want to send just 1 photo, that's okay.

But the MAX IS 2 PHOTOS.

Just a heads up to everyone.

If you send two photos, 1 horizontal and 1 vertical, only one of them is going to be in the book because it's impossible to get both in the same page.

choose wisely okay? <3

Suggestion: (The same suggestions I make every time we do this:)
*Square* format book.
Submit 2 photos - get facing pages.
Submit 1 photo - get one page.. with someone else's on the facing page.
Photographers name/trip/whatever goes in the largest remaining white space - vertically if applicable - to maximise the image and minimise the text.

Also: fuck Blurb. Can we at least try the half-decent printers this time? Blurb's small book quality was shithouse back when BJDrew did that one.

It's your choice, but /p/ is usually very friendly with things like that. People post personal accounts, personal websites, etc. It shouldn't come back to bite you. Many of us are friends on facebook, Insta, twitter, tumblr, etc. Not a lot of serious real world trolling going on in the years that I've been here. That being said, many people just tag their photos with their trip, so that the board can recognize who they are.

Last years book was extremely expensive due to how many people submitted, imagine if everyone got 2 pages to themselves, it would have doubled in cost.

So no, everyone gets one page. If you want a big picture, submit just 1 photo.

How good is epubli? I'm considering changing places if it's cheaper/better quality.

But I like blurb because it's fuck easy to make a book, and I don't feel like dealing with other softwares and putting in numbers from another place to make it work and etc.

If epubli is easy, or someone is willing to help, then sure, I'll change.

I would love to do Artisan State, but ain't nobody got money for that.

That sort of attitude isn't conducive to even making a book in the first place, and is totally invalid as an argument against 2 images and pages.
But iggy is just going to put two tiny images together on a page anyway.. which is a totally shit approach. So Really what he means is "only submit one image"

>Yes, we currently ship to the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, England, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Scotland, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, USA, and Wales.

...So not really all that international at all...given that many of the current /p/ contributors are Australian.. or otherwise not in those countries.
But

I'd like to know where this fallacy comes from, I saw no nature shots in the last book. I can't be the only one who submitted them,
>>
>>2726520
The problem isn't being "worthy" or anything like that.

Last two books were curated, and I'm guessing a lot of people decided to not submit. So If that's the case, more people should be submitting to this one because it's "open".

Now following that theory, last years book cost Softcover US $45.14 for the softcover version with the premium paper.
If I were to give everyone 2 pages, 1 picture on each page, then the cost of that book would have went to US $74.19 for the softcover.

The majority of people that actually buys books, buys the cheapest option available, and I'm 100% sure that only a few people would opt to buy a $75 dollar softcover book.

But what about small square? It's small, which means it's cheaper, give people two pages! Okay, let's take a look at the numbers.
If I had made last years book in small square format, it would have cost US $38.49 which is pretty good, about $7 dollars cheaper than the standard landscape.
Now doubling the number, and subtracting the intro/index/outro which doesn't need to be duplicated, it still would have cost US $60.99 for the softcover version.

It's still too expensive, and I try my best to make these books accessible to everyone in here. If this year's book isn't successful and not a lot of people submit, I might think of a two pager.
But otherwise, it's going to stay in 1 page manner and in standard landscape to make the images a bit bigger to offset it a bit.

I understand your rationale, I was addressing negative Sakura's attitude.

>other things you said:
People who are too cheap for a ~$100 book will be the majority who want the PDF.
I only bought the BJDrew compiled small book becasue I was uncertain of the print quality. And it turned out I was correct to assume it would be a bit crap. Numerous images on one page also contributed to making it even crapper.
Especially as a small book.

I realise the worst thing anyone can say is "If I was in charge..."
But....just in case it's helpful.

Suggestion:
Accept up to 2 images from each person.
All images get a whole page in a square format, so it's visually egalitarian for any orientation or aspect ratio of images.
Submit 2 = guaranteed facing pages.
Single image submissions come all together at front of book.. or back .. whatever.
Decide size of smallest available book at end of image submissions.
Aim for 20x20cm or bigger, and <~$100US on the basis that the small book will be crap and cheapasses wont buy any book anyway, but will PDF-beg instead.
If the number of submissions fits A bigish ~100UD$ book then make available for print.
If there is a lot more submissions than what fills a roughly <$100 book then either print two volumes, three volumes, or reconsider sizing down a bit. But the first 15cm small book was a bit shitty, so avoid downsizing.

TL;DR: get the images, then decide, aim for big with no small version but PDF instead.
... basically what you are probably already doing :)

Nah, I still like Flickr because it's nice to know thousands of people look at my stuff, and receive some friendly comments from both strangers and people you've "known" for ages. However I'm not a delusional fucking retard, I know my shit is nothing special and that's why I come to /p/ to get some realistic feedback, and look at the feedback of others.

The harshness and honesty of /p/ has helped me improve a lot, but it's always nice to balance that out with some ass kissing from Flickr.

>>2726365
>How good is epubli? I'm considering changing places if it's cheaper/better quality.

I've only tried their full colour 170 g/m2 matt option so far, but I'd put it on par or slightly above whatever the last /p/ book was. That plus being marginally cheaper & having more size/shape/binding options (including really cheap saddle stitching for thinner books) is what attracted me.

But as >>2726520 pointed out it seems they don't do proper international delivery (which I didn't know, sorry), so it's not really an option for us here.

>>2726646
>lots of shit photos is better than not as many good photos :^)

I'd rather have the good photos along with the shit photos (which the non curated approach would achieve) than have all the drama & extra work of trying to remove the shit ones in exchange for maybe giving the good ones more space or marginally reducing the price.

>>2726716
>Ask yourself, would you pay money to own a print of >>2726385 ?

Not on its own, no. But its inclusion in a book with 50 other prints wouldn't stop me from buying the book.

>>2726718
>I understand your rationale, I was addressing negative Sakura's attitude.

Sorry if that came across as brash. My point was more what Iggy has since explained more eloquently; giving everybody two pages adds a substantial amount to the price & the whole point of making a book is so that people can end up with something physical, so meeting a price that maximises how many people will actually buy it should be a priority.

>People who are too cheap for a ~$100 book will be the majority who want the PDF.

I think >>2726772 is more realistic. I imagine no more than 2 or 3 people would buy a $100 book, but a book at a similar price as last year's might get bought by maybe as many 1/8th of the people that submit. Can the authors of the previous books see how many copies were bought? It would be interesting to know.
>>
>>2726274
Don't give these people your name, no.

>$100 book
No, a less-than ~$100 book.
If a 20cm book ends up at $75 its probably going to contain 100+ images
whereas a 30cm book with 30 pages and ~60 images might end up at near $100
etc
etc

Stop thinking in absolutes.
I'm just suggesting we aim as big as possible, and $100 as a ballpark.

Seriously though, cunts who won't pay <$100 for a decently sized book of full-page images... but are prepared to pay $50 for a tiny shit reproduction with several images to a page are the reason our books are so often half-assed. Nobody just goes full-tyrant and does what should be done for it to be good, and instead waste time trying to placate poorfags who wont end up buying one anyway, and if they do they end up with somehting shitty that fails to display the photos in a manner appropriate to a coffee-table style book's main function. LARGE, CLEAR, DISPLAY.

Image related: The more visually interesting books tend to be the largest.

How about the people who actually plan/want to buy the book post how much they are realistically willing to pay, rather than just two people arguing over it.

You're starting to sound like isi.
>>
>>2726874
It doesn't matter if a big $100 book will be better than a small $50 book, because nobody but you will buy the big $100 book. The book is being made for /p/, not for you.
>>
>>2726817
i assumed it would be no bother.

will the book be published as a pdf or a image collection somewhere ?
>>
>>2726888
If it's the same as previous years, there will be a PDF version of the book on Blurb that one kind person will buy & then share with everybody.

a smart book printer would make it trivial to make one book and export multiple sizes.. but afaik most don't.
In any case, the expression "Work smarter..." comes to mind.
You took an awfully long time to do the last one iirc...and the last time I looked at the typical layout app from these sites it was like pulling my own teeth.
Sounds like a minature nightmare to me.

If the /p/ book is going to be too slow, small, cheap, low quality, full of bad photos, and horribly laid out for you, just fuck off and make yourself your own book with only your photos in it.
>>
For a bunch of photos from /p/ I'd buy as a community memento, rather than anything with artistic merit? I'd pay $25 USD plus shipping.
>>
>>2726892
I totally get your sentiment, but it's never been that obvious. The past two years there has been curation, and while 95% of the photos are obvious, there's always heated discussion on more than a handful. One man's garbage is another man's experimental masterpiece. What then? There's always going to be too much grey area.

>/p/ 2014 = 13 sales
>/p/ 2014 Small - Softcover - US $45.14
>/p/ 2014 Small - Hardcover - US $56.61

Every way I look at those numbers indicate that each new small book progressively loses favour with buyers, and consequently either discourages small book sales, or discourages all book sales.

large 2015 book ftw
>>
>>2727453
The book only sold 13 copies total last year? I know there aren't that many people on /p/ but I would think at least most of the people published in the book would buy a copy. That's sort of depressing, at least I have mine though.

It's conceivable that people who bought the small book in 2013 realised it was crap and didn't to do it again in 2014.
I did this.
Mind you the whole curation thing was more of a reason.

A big book is visually better.
Assuming it can be made for a reasonable price; it is a better option.

You're the cunt here. You've done nothing in this thread but shit over the previous books and you're only 'constructive' input has been 'make a bigger and more expensive book' that literally nobody but you seems to want.

But whatever, Iggy said he's going to make a larger book for you special snowflake, so kindly shut the fuck up now and stop trying to force your opinions on everybody else who doesn't share them.

No, I'm honest. The photos are decent. Maybe even something to include in a portfolio.

But I'm not sure you'd want to pick up a printed book repeatedly to see these shots in particular.

Just my opinion tho, if you want to submit, go ahead. Figures you might be among the better submissions anyways.

For fuck's sake. I know that the old days of 4chan are long since dead, but you've still gotta remember to lurk moar before spreading your retardism all over this board.

The phrase "[blank] up," merely means that a certain [blank]-themed thread was sinking to the back pages, and the anon was merely bumping it 'up' to the front page.

There's a word for that, it's called "bump".

I've been on 4chan since about 2004-2005 and not once have I EVER seen "[something] up" used in the context of a bump.

The use in this thread can only be taken as someone saying the photobook is up/online.

Stop being a retarded cunt
>>
>>2731302
It didn't look much different back then. Black cover and some text.
>>
>>2731302

Ya, I agree. Let's come together and try and formulate a better idea for the cover. I understand that we are sending pictures from all walks of life and of different subjects and of varying degrees of quality -- but we should still have something better than "/p/ photography 3.0".

I also understand that we're all a bunch of fucks and that coming together to try and reach a consensus on a "proper" title and cover image is going to be ridiculous -- but I say we try regardless.

We could do the classic [whatever title we agree on] in large bold letters and place numerous images inside the letters. It would be easy in photoshop. Make the photographs the background layer, and just overlay the title as layer 1 but have the letters completely transparent and the rest of layer 1 white or black to block out the other photos.
>>
>>2731509
If we can't agree if/how to judge the shots that go in the book, how the fuck do you think we're going to agree on images to go on the cover?

The images that are on the cover would be small and tough to fully make out because they would be cropped since the transparent title would be overlayed atop of them.

It would look similar to pic related. The only difference is that there would be numerous photos instead of just one large one. But they would not be made to fit inside the letters -- rather, the letters would be placed over top, blocking certain aspects of the pictures that they are above.

Nawwwww mean?
>>
>>2731509
I hate that idea. I like the minimalist cover on 2.0, just do a little better with the text layout.

Halfway through the thread - I have a few questions

1 - what exactly is this? I gather pics will made into a book. What is the cost, how is bought, does it get published and sold?

2 - could I put my name and my instagram?

3 - Can I see last year's book? Will there be themes etc?

It's a book m8.

>What is the cost
If you read the thread, you would know the cost is based on how many pages there is, etc.

Blurb.

>does it get published and sold?
No. I make it and it sits pretty on my hard drive.

>could I put my name and my instagram?
You can put your name, not instagram.

Sure.

I'd suppose so, I mean, it tells a deep story of how depressed the world is, no one seems happy there. The kid is sad as she doesn't get to play with the balloons, the mother is lost in her own thoughts. The guy is tensed about his job and income. Everyone is just walking past him. The nigger in the back is looking at something, that something is hidden from us, telling us that it doesn't matter what he's thinking of or looking at, but he is philosophising something "out of the box" if you catch my drift.

This is why people trying to interpret photos makes me cringe so much. :)

That's Wayne. He's a cool mofo whos 'other job' is an industrial property body corporate manager, he prefers balloons because it's fun and he rakes in more money with far less bullshit than his 'other job'. I don't think he is ever stressed, much less about his income. he makes good money and loves it.
The 'nigger' - who is probably arabic or indian - is watching other people go by, just like every other person sitting down. Eating, drinking, or just hanging and looking at other humans. Relaxing.
The girl wants one of everything and is re-assessing if she chose the right one, and what she might do to convince her mum to buy more.
The woman is watching Wayne skillfully twisting balloons and maybe wondering if she chose to pay him the 'right amount' - because he operates in that space as a busker (see the clearly displayed permit at bottom?), and buskers cannot set prices, only rough guides for how much to pay.
There is actually nothing really depressing in this scene.
...Rampant commercialism aside.
