    Hot off the presses!

    Here it is, my catalog cover! The guy who designed it sent me a couple copies today. I think I'll have one framed, and keep the other for a portfolio, if I ever get around to putting one together...

    Just wanted to share.

    That is just awesome. Grads on the cover. I'll be looking for mine in the mail.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Congrads - very cool! I'm trying to remember, is this the entire shot or is it a crop?

    Re: Hot off the presses!

    Thanks for all the positive comments and encouragement you have all given me over the last year and a half. It has really made a big dif. in my photography and given me the confidence to do things I never would have thought of doing in the past.

    Steve, this is a crop. I didn't realize how much they cropped out until I uploaded the original to Mpix last night so I could order a print to put next to the catalog in my future portfolio. Here is a copy of the original.


    OT, this catalog isn't being mailed out. I'ts a "stuffer". So if you want a copy, you will have to order something and one will be included with your package. I'm not sure when they will start using this book tho. I was in the ware house yesterday and didn't see any of them yet. I will check again next week and grab some extras when I find them.


    Thanks again everyone!

    Well done...

    I think the text could have been better placed on your pic, but that's the Art Director's fault, not yours.

    Looks great...

    Re: Hot off the presses!

    Thanks again for all the great feedback everyone!

    Ken, I saw a Quad Graphics truck leaving the warehouse this morning. They are one of the printers we use for our books, so they might be in. I will let you know when I get some more.
