Those of you who have given me your address, you're CD's have been sent to you.
Those of you who haven't, you now have an option-- You can leave you addy here (comments screened again), or I can bring them to you at MFF.
If you ARE going to MFF, let me know, so that I can bring your CD's (and I can give you money for your share). I'm not going to assume you are going, so pease tell me!
Also, I'm going to start allowing LIMITED EDITION prints on YOUR pieces. Prints must be signed and numbered, and NO MORE THAN 10.
For those of you in last years portfolio- If you want to discount the CD from it's original $30, that's fine. |

After much headaches and ibuprofin later, I've recompiled what I could get of the files I lost.
unfortunately, this meant that I still don't have addresses for these lovely packages that have been sitting here ever so patiently to be mailed out.
I have Two adresses-- Synnabar's and thewingedshadow.
quoting_mungo, I still need the paypal address to whoever I'm sending your money to, whether it be you or green reaper.
Winged shadow, I still have to check with the post office to see whether or not what I owe you will cover shipping. If it doesn't is there a preferred way you'd like to work it out? I can send it to someone to send to you, I can compensate money for CD's, or you can pay the difference.
I've locked comments on this so that you may post addresses here. if you are still uncomfortable posting it here, email me: aimee@skee.net This address should be defunct from pulling and deleting what wasn't really spam in the first place....and I'm very anxious to get these packages out of here. |

| An Update! |
[Aug. 4th, 2007|08:58 pm] |
Whew, bear with me guys, while I contunue to get things straightened out. CD's won't be sent out until after August 15th, unless by some miracle, I get everything done that I need to do before I leave for Florida on the 8th. You guys have the patience of saints, you really do!
I'm still attempting to get into my files as to who still owes what, and whatnot. Some of my programs got defuncted when I entered the wrong key. Oi. If you have not paid your artist fee yet, no worries, something can still be worked out.
quoting_mungo? I sent your Cd's (as well as some of last years) along with Green Reaper at AC. I had to leave the CD's at Admissions for him with a note. Am I sending the money to him then?
So then, since everyone made about $5, I'm going to give some options. I can offer:
-give up the $5 in exchange for shipping/supplies
-receive money for CD's instead. This will be a bit over cost- Each CD you'll get $3.
-Other options, open for suggestions?
This applies to USers, at the moment for the shipping, until I can figure out precisely how much it will be outside the US. They'll be shipped inside the US in bubble envelopes (CD's will have an additional layer of bubblewrap. If this is against your wishes, let me know, we'll work something out. Sorry, I cannot afford supplies and shipping out to everyone.
Like I said, I'm open to more suggestions on the options.
Also, next years portfolio should start soon. northwolf and autumn_sunrise are taking the torch, mostly. More detials to follow |

| Sales |
[Jul. 16th, 2007|12:51 pm] |
I'm sorry to say guys, that sales sucked this year at AC. Everyone only made about $5 each
The good news? you get exposure.
Since the edition was small, everyone gets about 3 CD's each. I think I may set up an option if you guys want money instead of CD's. It will be about cost of the CD, probably a bit more that you can get back (roughly $3. If you give up all 3, you get $10). There were magnets, bookmarks, and two prints for a raffle too at the table. I'm unsure yet what will happen to the rest of the bookmarks and magnets, but I think those might be offered as cost too to you guys.
I'll admit, even though I had tyrrlin helping me out at the table, I really needed another person for my -own- table too. This is why I think sales were down on the symphonies end (they were at my table too.) I am a bit dissappointed.
I will be going possibly to MFF as well, but I do not have a dealer's table.
Will I be continuing this project next year?
Perhaps. i'm not going to run it solely by myself. I'm working with northwolf and autumn_sunrise as to who gets what. Without help for next year, I cannot run it. |

Ok guys, finishing the last things for Anthrocon. The CD is looking better than the first!
The bookmarks and magnets look fabulous!
According to my records, the following still owe the artist fee:
Illucian Itarah Karja NorthWolf Squeakychewtoy
If your name is on this list, and it shouldn't be, please notify me ASAP and let me know either what day/method you paid, or what the story is. The EXCEPTION to this is NorthWolf, who has already talked to me. |

| Update! |
[Jun. 27th, 2007|06:41 pm] |
Getting ready for AC, and so far, other than just the CD's that will be for sale will be The first portfolio, and select bookmarks and magnets.
I am looking for ONE MORE person who is willing to donate a jumbo print towards a raffle to create more interest and generate more sales. Remember, I'm not allowing prints for the rest of you YET, until a majority of folios are sold, then it will be a limited run of 10.
Remember, the more we sell, the more you guys get!
Synnabar has graciously donated the first print, which will be delivered at Anthrocon. I ask that if you would like to donate a print, that you either be attending AC, have someone who can deliver the print for you at AC, or have it shipped to me--which must be recieved no later than TUESDAY. It may come on Tuesday, but I leave for AC on Wednesday. Another option would be to ship it directly to the hotel, but you'd have to let me know :D
One more print?
Also, I'm due for an update on payments and such. Due to the heat, I cannot turn on my computer which has the data on it. I will give an update as soon as I can turn it on and fetch the files. This list will be updated, posted and confirmed before AC. |

| Reserving CD's |
[Jun. 19th, 2007|05:01 pm] |
ok guys, Been thinking how I was going to do this.
If you would like a CD for your own PERSONAL use, let me know. If you will not be at AC, you will have to pay for shipping on it. The cost to you is nothing otherwise. So if you want one: 1. Let me know 2. Tell me whether or not you (or your agent) is going to AC
If you want one for a friend, relative, etc. Sorry, due to the limited number that will be sold, they'll have to purchase one for $20.
I am going to allow Pre-orders too. These can be picked up at AC, or shipped (still covered by purchaser). Preorders will have to be paid for in full. CD's for preorders will be shipped out AFTER AC.
I'm keeping with tradition and picking a piece from the cover that I feel best described the project (and one of my favorites!) I've selected a few pieces for magnets and bookmarks-and its not that I didn't want to do all of them, its just that some pieces work better than others.
I know that this year didn't go as smoothly as I would have liked, so I'm going to make up a survey type thing of opinions on what could be better and what was good. That will probably come after AC. As for next year's portfolio... I'm going to have a sign up sheet at AC. I have two wonderful people that will be helping me next year- northwolf and autumn_sunrise. I may take on additional help, so if any of you would like to get into the core of the project, please let me know. I know we may need someone who knows html.
Thanks a ton to those of you who helped the project pull through!

PORTFOLIO!
COngrats, Guys. We are officially Running a Mini folio.
The folio will be on regular size disks, but will be in Paper sleeves. The sleeves will have an Insert with a "cover picture" peeking through the hole. I'm going to go with tradition on which picture this will be--I will choose one of the pieces to be featured as the cover. IF budget allows it, I will go for the slim jewel cases
I'm waiting on a few hi-res files from some of you. I need those ASAP. Remember, files must be sent to BOTH Loth and I.
If your name is NOT on the previous list (edited from those entries I received), then I DO NOT have it. IF you have sent it to Loth and not me, Please send it to me too (aimee@skee.net)
Artist Fee ($15)- can be done several ways. PAYPAL- EXISTING FUNDS- psychotyr@yahoo.con CREDIT - aimee@skee.net
If you are using the SKEE.NET paypal, please add a few dollars to the fee to cover paypal costs SNAIL MAIL- email me (aimee@skee.net) for my address. AT THE CON- either you or someone who works as your "Agent".
You will not be paid until I get this fee. You may participate in the folio without paying the fee, however, you will not earn money. The artist fee pays for the table and supplies to make the folio (which may include some labor that will also have to be paid for such as sending away for screen printed portfolios).
I'm not sure on the exact number on what edition to run this, or a price, so I need your help. Here, have a poll. Please fill it out!

*************************************
Celestria- we need a higher res file than what you gave us!
We need -2- more pieces to continue. Sooooooo because I'm going to bed and have not checked my mail before doing so, I'm going to check for more submissions when I get up. I usually don't get up until 10 or so, and I still have to let dogs out and feed them. So until I get to to my mail, you have a grace period.
To those who have turned in pieces-- THANK YOU. They are wonderful and you guys worked hard on them :}
Artist fees will be sorted out tomorrow as to who paid and who didn't, and who I owe money to. |
