What the heck is it with some of you people? Hell you all get wet pants of excitement over the book when it comes out, but many of you miss out with a couple of frames because of whatever stupid reason one can imagine! LOOK IN 10 DAYS and a few hours!!!!!! SUBMISSIONS CLOSE !! You don't have to be a KARSH, EISENSTAEDT or a big name whatever to be in the book. This is the LUG FAMILY! Each and everyone of us has an opportunity to have a picture or two published without working your ass off to please an art director or photo editor. And for those of you who've never had to "please the guy paying the bill?" This without question is a God send of comfort to be part of . Heck it's not even a competition where your photos are up against some visually impaired photo editor who will decide whether you make the cut or not. It's so simple. Just e-mail a snap or two and YOU ARE PUBLISHED! How much easier can it be? And it wont cost you a penny to be part of a group of friends in a book! :-) Now I'm trying sweet syrup and be nice pointing up the fun side of all this to all those who haven't sent a frame or two to Jim, PLEASE GET ON IT! Thank you very much. Cheers, ted The smiling, well OK sort of grinch. -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Jim Shulman Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 3:26 PM To: 'Leica Users Group' Subject: [Leica] Important Notice to All LUG Yearbook Contributors I am currently caught up with entries, at present 63 (and looking for more!) IF YOU HAVE SUBMITTED IMAGES TO ME, BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK WITH A CONFIRMING E-MAIL WITH YOUR CAPTION, ASSUME THAT A) I DID NOT RECEIVE YOUR IMAGES AND B) THEY ARE NOT (YET) IN THE BOOK. If I replied to you that your images weren't large enough for publication, or were not in a usable format (jpg), assume that THEY ARE NOT (YET) IN THE BOOK UNTIL I HAVE THE CORRECTED VERSIONS! If you sent incomplete information, with the hope that you'll send a) more information or b) a second image, remember that if I don't have the additional material by Dec 31, that material will not appear in the book. SOME VERY GOOD NEWS: Quite a few lurkers have submitted images. I'm happy to note that this year's collection of outstanding pictures contains some nice surprises from folks whose work will be new to the group. All member of the LUG, especially lurkers and newbies, are encouraged to submit images. Best, Jim Shulman Wynnewood, PA _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
