Ok now that the project is about halfway through and the selected photos can be viewed it would be interesting to know how many would buy the book.

So please vote how many copies you would buy.

Its kind of stupid that the forum software starts the thread before the poll options have been added. I was adding it while you posted.

As a note, this book will be 10-inches by 8-inches (landscape) with 272 photos covering 160 pages. Hardcover. It will be US$39.95, plus shipping.


You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

There is an option missing on the poll to make it scientific. You are assuming everyone that views the thread will buy one one whether they vote or not. Some people cant vote if they will not be buying so I suggest you add None as one of the choices.

I am not assuming anything and I am not interested in knowing how many will not buy the book only how many will buy it and how many copies.

Not science. Economics.

We want to get an idea of how many will be ordered, not how many won't be ordered.

I will do at least 2, one for me and another for my son. I may buy 4 if I have a picture of my own in there. :)
