[Leica] Ten 2008 LUG Yearbook Submissions so far...

[jbm at jbm.org (Jeff Moore)]

Okay, so...  please pardon me if this has already been covered, but I
haven't been able to find a reference in traffic so far.

Is this year's book laid out just like last year's?

If so, that'd mean:

  - big, up-to-full-bleed image on the left (first) page of our pair,
    max 9-1/2" wide, max 7-15/16" high

  - smaller available image area on the right because of captioning for
    poth photos below;  image space apparently max 7-1/2" wide, max
    5-1/8" high, surrounded by a border approx 1/16" high.

How close to right is that this time?

I'd like to get it right because clearly this affects both how we scale
images, but particularly it affects which image we choose to request
that you place in each position -- some pictures work okay small, others
don't.

I'm also assuming that the requirement that images be supplied to you
already converted into the sRGB colorspace hasn't changed.  Getting that
right made a huge difference for my pictures between the first and
second years -- the first year I supplied pictures in (and tagged as) a
wide-gamut space like Adobe '98 pr ProPhoto, assuming the Blurb software
would to the correct and optimal conversion...  but it just ignored
colorspace tagging and treated the image data like sRGB.  My stuff was
a little muddy that year.  So I don't want any of us to make that
mistake this time!

Thanks...
