So, we’ve been playing with the print-on-order platform Blurb – and we’d like to create a series of books with your help. There’s a good few of you out there – let’s do something together.
Book 1: At Play – Images from around the world
Publish a collection of photographs of people At Play. These photos have been taken by PSFK readers and should be added by either:
a) Adding them to this Blurb Project group
b) Submitting them to the Flickr group ‘At Play’ : http://flickr.com/groups/at_play/
We want pictures of others At Play (sorry – not of you, the photographer) – and a small commentary about it with tags to know where the shots were taken.
Please add YOUR original high quality images. If this works, we’ll choose the photos on May 30 and the book should be ready for everyone to buy mid-June.
If we use your shot (and commentary), we will reference you and add a link to your site, if you provide it. PSFK may feature the shot on this site also. If we sell more that 30 copies of At Play, we’ll send you a free copy of the book too. Sound ok?
And what is ‘At Play’?
You show&tell us.

Any photo used in the book should get a free copy, no?
People do all the work of grabbing flicks, submitting and tagging them… hook them up!
Sounds like a very cool project at any rate.
I’ll be submitting!

Thanks Dean. Well, if it works well, we’ll review and work out sa better deal. Books cost $17 to make and I don’t think we’d sell them about $25…
Unless anyone else wants to suggest a price??

May 30? But the Come Out and Play Festival is the following week!

Is there an update on what photos were selected, and the anticipated pub date?
