This was fun. I'd like to share some of the nicest things that any one person has said to another human in all history:

-I'VE BEEN HURT FEELINGS-
I'm a whinny little bitch and I'm butthurt because my photos weren't published at full page. You are a cocksucker circlejerking faggot and the book sucks, all the photos you chose as full page suck, you're photos suck, and your mom sucks...

I hate you because you took your free time and spent it doing something nice for the shit hole of board that is /p/ee. Even though you don't know shit about book designing you made your best effort to come up with this putrid crap. I can't imagine the hell you've gone through while looking at all the talentless uncreative submissions; must have been like smearing shit incrusted caltrops in your eyes, while impaling your asshole with a 35-135mm lens.

What do you get for doing this? Nothing but a bunch of whinny faggots like me bitching about every single detail of your abomination. You should feel great, you put on the fridge the drawings of the special education class, and the retards feel great because they feel part of something.
People enjoying things? On my 4chan? That is blasphemy, and you should feel bad about it.

Also, I love you.

Sorry, I take that last comment back. I just looked through and there are some really nice pictures here. I'm impressed /p/, and slightly humbled.

Great job guys, and thank you BJDrew for making this possible.

The preview still includes the unedited version of this shot.

Didn't you see I sent you the proper one?

i like it better with the picture in it anyway, so deal with it.

The mistake I pointed out in an email for my photo wasn't fixed. All I wanted was the location changed.

>>1573921
I got the message and changed my database. I thought it was swapped but can't easily tell the difference. Be honest - scale of 1 to 10 - how bad is this?

Nice work, Bart.

Will this be available indefinitely?

>>1573926
Some of the emails were very vague as to the image to be changed. Were you "Michigan"?

>>1573928
I'm not planning on taking it down anytime soon.

Amazing

I'm still greatly amused.

where can i torrent this? is there a pdf or anything?

>>1573930

Yeah, the black and white of the guy sitting on a fire hydrant. It was taken in NYC, not Michigan.

>>1573933
Blurb doesn't make PDF output easy. I'm sure some enterprising chap will figure that out. There is a full book preview on the site without restrictions (I think)

>>1573934
Well, then, there was another photo in the same section (Girl with star tattoos) that was in MI that now says NYC.

History will forever have them both wrong. And we all learned a valuable lesson about being specific.
But in all seriousness, I tried.

Going to place my order right now. By the way, I used the code "FREESTYLE" (without the quotes, of course) for 25% off.

Good job blowjobdrew. You should do this again sometime, maybe with some people helping out with layouts and what not.

>>1573937
You just ordered my last book, friend.
I'm sure someone else will to better next time!

It looks like there were barely any changes at all from the first draft. Why'd it take so long

>>1573927

Pretty bad, I didn't just fuck up by sending you the wrong edit, I sent you the original raw conversion that had no edits applied to it.

Where can we find the ipad version?

>>1573944
In order to upload a new book, I have to buy it and everyone else would possibly lose orders. Let me look into it. Things always go wrong with multiple revisions and getting edits by email and via form. Let's see what I find out - it may have to stay. The good news is that the image got a shit ton of positive feedback as is.

>>1573950
You go to the order page - and it is the 1st option.

I'm guessing d didn't submit anything for this project? Slightly disappointed, but the photos are still pretty nice. I'm glad most of the snapshitty rubbish that gets posted here didn't make it through. I went through the whole preview without raging. Order's already been placed, can't wait.

>>1573957
>I went through the whole preview without raging
Seriously? Not even at satanael's fucking anime doll? I raged pretty hard.

>>1573960
Is that the Dali homage with Asuka or the other one? I thought the Asuka one was funny. They're both small so who cares?

>>1573953

So should we order now or wait?

>>1573960
I thought both the anime figures in the book were hilarious.

>>1573936

>Well, then, there was another photo in the same section (Girl with star tattoos) that was in MI that now says NYC.

Ahh, dicks. I've never been to NYC in my life.

Oh well, you put together a nice book, BlowJay. Sorry everyone on here is a miserable shit.

>>1573975
If you order now you will get your book. Worst case is 1 image changes

no one here knows who i am and i never post my own images. actually, i never really post.

i want to order this book so that i can feel as though i am part of /p/ because i love it so much. yet i'm not part of /p/ at all, anyways.

man fuck life.

Ordered.

P.S. I should have read the whole thread before I ordered. I was impatient and it cost me use of a better promo code. Piss.

>>1573994

If you do edit it, could you fix my location?

You did great Bart. Shame that Bassface isn't in the book, I guess he didn't want to screw the book with his silliness, but it would've been nice to see him there. I mean, the anime dolls made it in, so little afghan Bass would've been better than that.

>>1573960
Are you the same anon that is obsessed with mirrorlensguy and all the other tripfags? You need help bro, get out of 4chan for a while and get some fresh air.

>>1573997
Grab a camera, keep shooting, avoid any sort of gear faggotry/brand bias and you will be fine if someone on /p/ ever decides to make a book.

>>1574004
A whole page dedicated to Bass with an eyepatch would have been badass.

>>1573994

Alright thanks, ordered. And don't bother changing the Michigan to NYC, I don't care that much.

Sorry for partially fucking that up, Barista. What part of Michigan are you from?

>>1573940
This and next semester I am extensively studying type and layout so I'll gladly help in next years book.

>Tags /p/, ecclectic, 4chan, world's worst photography book

>>1574018
I never trust the opinions of those who say they are studying something in the creative arts.

>>1573937
I can confirm this code works, just ordered a copy.
Thanks for all your efforts, Bart.

On a unrelated note. Does anyone have the link for d's book? I'd like to order it together with the /p/ one.

ordered!

>dat full page feel

>>1574034
http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1022377
bloody expensive though

>>1574044
Thanks, will order it, though.

>>1574050
Here's the link to NatureGuy's book: http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1927125
I'm buying both along with the /p/ book of course.

BJDrew: Thank you so much for taking the time to make this project come true. Do you get any money from the book sales at all? If you don't, set up a Paypal link and I will donate $10.

>>1574044
thank god for that $60 for $30 groupon deal a while back

Already forgot all about this shit. Hmm, to order or not? $30 could buy me some 4x5 film.

>>1574075
If that's you Alex, buy film. Much better use of the money.

>quarter page
>okay.jpeg

Good work though!

>>1574077
>implying Alex is the only 4x5 shooter here
bitch please. this is 8x10 anon, also shooting "small format" 4x5.

>>1574081
No, I wasn't implying that at all. Hence the 'if' at the start.

>yfw bjdrew is making $10 on each of these sold

bought mine, thanks

>delicate ploansp

>>1574107
more like bzjew, am i rite guise?

>>1573994
haven't you said the "For Ken" wouldn't make it in the final book?
Not that I care.

What about the idea that we send a book to moot?

>>1574132
Where do you suggest we mail it too? I recall mootykins being a rather private fellow. I'd pay for it, however, if he wanted one.

how about a pdf?

>>1574172
please read the thread. Or at least search for "pdf"
>>1573935

>>1574171
Welp, totally forgot where I am. Thought at first about sending it to his home adress. but I'm afraid he won't give it out to us.
That would leave Contact him via e_mail, fb, twitter; send it to 4chan headquarters (I doubt that is known too, can't find it in "Contact")
Would pay for it too, but got no paypal or such.

>>1574177
Could fairly easily mail it to a post office that'll hold it for him for a lengthy period of time, from which he can go collect it at his leisure. That way he needn't pick it up at a specific time/date, so the chances of some /b/tard spotting and following him home are as high as his simply going out of his front door in the morning.


Anyway, thanks for the book, BJDrew. Particularly glad that photo of industar's is in there - didn't even realise it was his.

gawdammit. you know at first i thought the thread about this book idea was a joke?

i am total butthurt. well played gentlemen.

>>1574184
What the fuck? At no point did I even consider that. Some shit must have happened to you for you to be so paranoid.

>>1574066
the fuck is that still doing up...

>>1574184
>>1574187
that's pretty funny

>>1573908
So tell me, how much profit are you pulling from each book sold?

>>1574287
0/10

this is nice. I got in there... probably going to purchase it this saturday night after I have a few beers with a friend.

Seriously this was a really cool thing to do... I hope it happens again soon, I'll actually be butthurt/sadfaec is bj doesn't at least get involved again.

Also natureguy if you're reading congratz on getting those pics up on that board at that nature park place where guys like you go (not being sarcastic), i'm from oz so not a large chance i'll run into any work from /p/ down under but it would be cool to have that happen. It would kinda feel liek we were taking over the /p/hotography world or something shit-hot like that.

Yeah, shit-hot.

shall i hit send?
i'm afraid.

You should've mentioned that some people thought about gifting him the book. That would've got his attention.

I'm from Detroit proper. McNichols and Livernois. Only white person down here, but I've been down here long enough to where my neighbors don't give a shit. Barbecues and crazy black churches. Feels good man.

>>1574355
Blurb makes $$ on e-books as well. I had to pay $3 to make it available as an e-book.

>>1573908
al my respect go to you BJ. hope you will change your mind and make another book in a year or two.

Hey, I live at Michigan ave & Walbash. 313 represent

speaking of which, do you have a skin on your browser or something? im assuming you have the galaxy nexus. your browser has tabs on the top, the notification panel / icons / clock on the bottom right, and the back/home/menu buttons on the bottom left, but mines not like that. pic related, its what mine looks like.

>>1574412
oh wait, its a tablet isnt it? yea, its probably a tablet. nevermind.

Ah, I'm in Montucky (Monroe). Shit sucks.

Any good photo related groups or events happen up there?

This is a REAL forum book

http://blog.blurb.com/index.php/2012/03/30/book-of-the-week-the-leica-user-forum-book-2012/

purchased, for no other reason than I'm in the book. still a little disappointed in some of the photos in the landscape section.

>>1574435
that book looks awful. i mean, the pictures on their own seem decent enough, but there is no narrative, no cohesion. you have landscape shots right next to shots of brutalist architecture, which are right next to shots of people in colorful garments in third world countries. at least the /p/ book organizes the images by theme, and does a very good job at it too. thumbing through the /p/ book on blurb was an enjoyable experience. that leica book looks like it was put together by someone who has never used a camera in their life (cue typical leica user joke).

i guess that points to bjdrew's layout-making abilities, in that he can make a /p/ book look better than a leica forum book.

Not enough tripfags/Too many summerfags

North west Michigan is best Michigan. That is all.

>>1574435
book named leica
not even one picture made by a leica camera
>mfw i have no f

Hey BKDrew any idea how many copies of this are available?

I want to order one but I won't have money for another week or so..

>>1574493

Blurb print by demand so you don't need to worry.

The book looks good, some photos are really great. My expectations were exceeded. Thank you, /p/

Since there are no pictures from neither junk nor d I wonder what's the best photo from the book?

>>1574528
yall's photo is the best in the book. Even though it isn't even in the book, the shadow that it casts on each page is enough.

>>1574464

South East Michigan here. Too busy being the only part of Michigan with commerce to give a shit.

Toledo, Ohio here

We should all do a meetup sometime

why paypal u has no money on you
now i have to wait 4-6 days to order

>>1574599
Yup, Ann Arbor reporting in here, best area in the state to live in for sure. Up north is the most beautiful though.

>About to order
>Site doesn't take laser cards
Fuckers

>>1574432
Shit, not really, but I mean Detroit is possibly the best spot in the USA to take 'post apocalyptic' photos, so theres that.

I bought it, can also confirm that "FREESTYLE" snags a discount that negates the postage cost & then a bit. The book is far from perfect, but if anything seeing my photo so small will hopefully encourage me to take more & better photos.

>>1574686
bump for some pictures of the book.

Nice dedication.

I thought everything in the book was going to suck, so I didn't submit. Now I see that there are actually great photos included and I had sent one in.
