Gaining a listing on photorequiem

--

--

As I write this, there are two listings on the site: Elisabeth Young, (my mother); and Mattie Dutcher, (who wished to be remembered -- a thing I can well understand). .I'd like to expand this into a livelihood, and so offer listings.

If you'd like to work with me, I make the following offer: For $100 I will, if I can, put up a page in honor of the past relative of your choice. .The page would be similar to those already on the site: a simple layout of photos and rollovers with up to 1280x1024x2 pixels graphic content. .For $100, I offer to design and print 48 plain or 24 laminated copies of a bill-sized card similar to Mattie's; and ship these to you in the lower 48 states. .For $150 I offer to do both.

The photos can be sent on CD, or, if you like, as prints. .One can also e-mail photos my way. .If I am able, I am willing to put in some Photoshop time editing out scratches and dust.

If you already have a page which you want included, I offer to do so for $33; but ask that it contain only still images.

Please send payment by check or money order; and I will not cash these until the work is complete. .Prices are in US dollars.

Further notes and considerations:

I trust you to provide only those photos to which you have rights; but, if it becomes a legal issue, I reserve the right to remove photos or pages from the site.

Samples of handwriting are a great way to get more of a person into the portrait. .These can be traced and vectorized in Illustrator, but the process is slow. .My offer is $3 per word.
