Ok Guys, Gals & Furries
We still need about 70 of your cats photo's for our Purrs professinally printed fundraiser for this year and it's gonna be an A5 portrait weekly diary for the year 2008. ;D ;D
Fantastic keep sake of our babes and make great gifts for all!!
We want to sell as many as we can to raise loads of dosh for Cat rescue Flintshire. It would be great if the diary was as successful as our 2007 and 2008 professionally printed Purrs A3 calendar ;D ;D (highly recommended and excellent quailty, There are still some left if you haven't got yours yet at Half price of £7.50!!)
We can fit about 208 cat pics in the diary and it will have front cover (the Purrs logo cat) , inside page for name, address and cats info etc, 52 pages of weekly diary with 5 cat pics on left sides and diary on right sides (See example of inside page below), and at the back some pages for business advertising. Wire bound on left side.
Soo if ya want ya babes on the new Purrs professionally printed project this year, i'm gonna need your babes photos. :gimme:
One photo per cat only please, pics of two or more cats together are allowed.
Pictures need to be of good quality and decent size so they come out well on print.
We will also need your name, cats name and a caption of up to four words (if long words then will have to be 3 words, if short words can be 5 words max)
and a date you would like the pic to appear opposite. (Please note we can may not be able to put all pics in your date preference if we have lots for the same week. We will try our best.)
Send pic as an attachment to my email addy on my profile with names and captions in the email message.
The diary will be ready and on sale around September 2007 and the cost for each diary will be £11 which will include the donation to the rescue (£6), printing, UK postage and packing (£5).
Please bear in mind this will be a totally unique one off item. Nothing like it is available in shops and it will have your very own cats on it! This is excellent value especially when specialist diaries without any personal photos in cost £20 plus.
Calling all businesses!!
We are providing space at the back of the diary for business advertising to help raise more money for the cat rescue. If you would like your business advertised in the back pages, please send your advert as an attachment to my email addy. The advert size needs to be 6cm x 6cm or multiples of this and will cost £25 per 6cm x 6cm space to place the ad for the years diary. PLease contact me Tan@chaptan.co.uk with any questions or more info.
Everyone is very very welcome to have your babes in the diary .... Sooooo get sending me your fave pics ;D ;D

Tan, have sent you an email with my boy's piccy ;D
-
Brilliant ;D ;D ya know i love de pics so keep em coming :yayyy: :yayyy: :cheese:
Thanks Clare got ya gorgeous lad maxiboy ;D ;D ;D
Great really look forward to gettin ya pics Liz :cheer: Hey 43 emails no probs ;D ;D
Susanne any of your pics you entered for the cat show will be fantasic ;D ;D ;D
No money is needed at all until the dairy goes on sale later in the year at £11 each. It is your choice to buy a copy or not but that's the sole purpose of making it ... to raise money for needy cats.... so the more diaries we sell, the more we help the needys babes. ;D Please bear in mind this will be a totally unique one off item, never to be repeated again!!!!. Nothing like it is available in shops and it will have your very own cats on it! This is excellent value especially when specialist diaries without any personal photos in cost £20 plus.
You all will have the chance to view the diary online when i have finished the design to check for any errors before it is sent to the printers. ;D
For quality for the printing, the pics need to be of a reasonable size and clear. If they are big, thats no prob as i will resize and get a good quality. If they are too small and are speckley and fussy the pics wont print well on the glossy paper for the diary pages.
Ideally, the pics should be clear and of about 500 x 500 pixels in size. (similar to the sizes of the pics posted on here) If you have bigger pics - no probs i can resize.
This diary will be the same quality as the calendar, it really would make excellent gifts for friends and family and a great keep sake with all our very own babes on it. ;D ;D ;D
If you have a copy of last years printed Purrs project (the large wall two year calendar) , you will know how good the quality is ;) ;D
I will try to make it even more personal by putting your babe's pic opposite a date that is special to you too. (cause of the volume of pics in the dairy, this might not be possible for everyone as we can only have about 4 cats on each week to keep a good sized pic of them)
The pic below gives you a rough idea of what an inside page will look like. The background behind the pics will have seasonal design and colour like the calendar.
Dont forget i also need a caption with each pic (up to four words or up to 6 short words) and your name and cats name (or names if more than one cat in pic) and a date for each pic you would like. ;D
-
I'd like to submit a pic of Magpie (in my avatar) but I didn't have a digital camera then so pics I have are either scanned in or taken on my mobile phone - hence not great quality. But he was a great cat ;D Hopefully I'll have one good enough quality. No shortage of Mosi pics but I might try to borrow a friends posh SLR camera to get some of Jaffa as none of his photos do him justice.
-
Will send you one each of Dylan and Hobbes at the weekend Tan, just got to decide on the nicest ones. :Luv:
-

Did you ever get my pic of Mosi? If you didn't it's probably stupid tiscali's fault - having so many problems with them. So many emails not being delivered. If you didn't it's one posted on here so I can point you in the direction and you can maybe get it from there?
