View Full Version : Your Picture Wanted - Cookbook Collage now accepting submissions

Now here's an opportunity you cannot miss!
Anyone interested in having their photo on the back of the new Farscape cookbook?
Yep, that's right. Show the world your support for this campaign and this fantastic show, be a part of the cook book by submitting a photo of you - not your friend, not your neighbor, and not your pet (well, maybe your pet :D) - the photo or you can even draw a picture if you are so inclined MUST be of you - please do not send in a photo of anyone other than yourself!
The idea is to create a collage of fans! We will need a minimum of 30 photos to fill out the entire back cover! If we don't receive 30 images we will not be able to make the collage! Yes, 30 is a random number but we want lots of fans we want to show the world we have large, large numbers of supporters and fans so the more the merrier!
NOTE: Please be sure the picture you send is as large as possible because we will need to reduce the image down for commercial printing.
NOTE 2: Please be sure to send only your image - if you are part of a group try to crop out everyone except you (of course!).
NOTE 3: For those of you who know the resolution of your image - the preference is 300 dpi approx 2" x 2", if the resolution is 72 dpi the image should be approximately 8.3" x 8.3" to reduce down for hi-res.
Please send photos to: kimr1013@aol.com
All photos must be received by Friday May 30th.
Fine Print: Sending in your photo automatically gives us the right to use the photo for the cookbook - we will not use the photo for any other reason, but sending the photo constitutes permission to use the photo, and that the photo given is indeed a photo of that individual submitting the photo.
Thanks,
The cookbook team:
Mycattoldme, Chryse, Chaym, Akimbo and ChroNate

sent you a very ugly one of me, akimbo, so if you shrink it down to next to nothing, I'd definitely understand! :D

Ummm...since I prefer for you all to picture me as some suave svelt gorgeous phone goddess...I'll opt out thanks. :D Besides that, I don't have one single decent picture online that I could send in.
So...send away....and imagine me beautiful please. :D
Kyntio
05-20-2003, 03:48 PM
Hey Twich, now don't be a coward you're not usually! We want to see some real people especially the ones that have done so much for the campaign and not some fashion models on that cook book. So send in that picture, don't be modest now! ;)
Chaym
05-20-2003, 08:10 PM
Finally sending mine in. It's the only decent photo I have. It was taken with me wearing a dress and overdress I made for the fall. (I normally hate dresses, but quickly discovered that 2 layers of flannel with long johns certainly beats jeans in the winter!)

Well, I've got a "head shot" that I use for business that I'd send in, but I'll have to see if I can locate someone with a scanner.

Mycattoldme is totally fweaking awesome at this stuff. Rest assured, she will shout if she needs something different than what we're sending her. :aok:

We have about 13 so far. Not enough to do the collage. Come on scapers!
Lets get Tirielitis! :joy:

Hey, did you guys ever get a recipe for "Grayza's Marinated (Chicken) Breasts"? Because I tried a new recipe that's normally used for Asian shrimp on chicken, and it was WONDERFUL.
Oh, and I'm sending in my pic with the Crais t-shirt on. And Tiriel, don't worry. You won't be the fattest Scaper on the back of the cookbook.

05-23-2003, 07:37 PM
We have multiple Grayza's breasts recipes :rollin:
One with Cheese :D
Thanks for sending the picture! We still need more! More! MORE!
Ahhhhahahhhahahah!

excellent, btw is there a way of pre booking a copy of the 2nd cookbook (to order with the first) or is grab them asap?
akimbo
05-26-2003, 04:01 PM
Not doing any "pre-booking" - once they're funded and printed - we'll make them available with all the fanfare possible (threads, announcements, news items) at let nature take its course.

I hope these will be available at the conventions! What a great way to spread the love :) If DK, Ben, Ricky, etc. thought FoodScape I was awesome, wait until they see this :D
I am sooo impressed -- the front & back covers look like they should be on the shelf at the local B&N.

I can only guess that I lost it. :eek:
If you resend it to me at kimr1013@aol.com I can make sure mycattoldme gets it.
Second row from the top - second pix from the left. It's the picture my husband took for Brascape. I'm holding my packages and my Farscape figures are on the shelf on my desk in the background.
Woo Hoo!

Hmm..no one up there has any toe socks on-that I can see, anyway.

Nope...not fair. :ewink:
And I wouldn't tell ya anyway.
I'm in the picture, too. And I'm not telling that neither :D
Shipscat
06-18-2003, 07:32 PM
There's no one there with their elbows stuck out and their hands on their hips, so I don't believe you're there, akimbo...
And Mrelia-it's obvious. You're the pretty one.
And I'm easy to figure out if you think about it.
So Lagash, Trubador and Mike are all very handsome- Boo, you just need to find out which one of them is single.

06-20-2003, 10:35 AM
Chryse - I think I might be able to guess because of something you told me on Kansas once. Of course I'm not 100% certain but if you are in a pic with your other half I think I know too!? :D
Chryse
06-20-2003, 05:55 PM
heehee!
Ships got it right (unicorns are for avatars! lol). And Kyntio, you probably got it right too. :D
this is very exciting! The printer is working on the cookbooks right now you know. It's a wonderful book! thanks to all you guys for helping to make it that way!
