single copy orders

I hope everyone has received your lovely copy of the inaugural issue of Perspective(s). It is fabulous. Congratulations everyone!!! Now comes the challenging part...the presentation, but that is for another note.

Camilla aka Millie has gotten back to me. Each copy will cost 9 GBP. Please let me know on Friday how many copies each of you would like so I can prepare the order.

See you then!

What do you guys think of this concept? Looks like they may have beaten Google to the punch...well, at least for the moment.

Thanks,

Hello everyone,
I'm finishing up the masthead and contributors pages and I have a lovely bunch of blue boxes and fake copy in our profile sections. If you have not already done so, please upload your pictures and your personal blurbs onto google docs. Which means stop photoshopping your photo cristian and send it already!
Thanks!

Write in your preferred person

I think we should write in the preferred person and say what we like. It is a personal statement as it is. Do what you are inspired by.

when we write about ourselves

Hi all,

Just wanted to ask you whether we shall write in first or third person when we write the text about ourselves for Perspective(s).

Risk Analysis

This morning I woke up to a beautiful blanket of snow. How many inches or centimeters I do not know, but it is above my ankle height whichh I am deducing is a generous amount for this region of the world. With this said I am unable to travel in today. The weather report is not very promising for Friday either but hopefully it will relax so I can get in...

Can someone take notes of the meeting so we can then type up minutes? I am happy to type them up if someone writes them.

Image Upload Test


Images can be uploaded to the blog simply. If you are still interested, let's review it at the next meeting. Oh yeah! This is a Renoir.

Documents are up for your viewing pleasure

Hello everyone,

We have not been using the blog as much as I hoped we would. Let's try and improve this for communications sake. :-)

So, in case you have not noticed you inbox filling up, I have uploaded all the meeting agendas and minutes to date. From this point forward agendas for general meetings will be up the evening before our Thursday meetings and minutes will be posted by the following Saturday.

Please have a look at the agenda or print it out so we can follow along. I am going to try and get us some printer paper for room W212 so we can print out copies before the meeting starts.

Also there are a few additional "minutes" that had no home but are good for everyone to be aware of. These include:

  1. I spoke with Gill Davies regarding copyright and she confirmed that permission via email is sufficient as long as we have a hard copy for our files.
  2. A Contributor page will now follow the Table of Contents page
  3. We will have a subscription page on the Inside Back Cover
  4. If we have not already, let's get our images on memory sticks/pens and get them to design asap

That is it for now.
See you tomorrow for a action-packed theoretical meeting at 1:00PM.
