This is mebbe a loser idea for me but I wonder if anyone out there is interested in "subscribing" to me. For a nominal fee, the subscriber would receive one 11x14ish print a month for one year. The monthly print would be a freshly produced image, one that I have deemed "good" (or good enough as they say) & produced in a number limited to the amount of subscribers. It's a shaky idea without much evidence but I thought I'd float it out there. If more than one person says they're interested, I'll gladly explain in more detail.

Posted by: Walker at July 10, 2004 1:09 PMI have a question for you. If there were a site that did everything (printing the editions, signing up subscribers, taking money, doling out money, and mailing prints) would you sign up for such a service?
Posted by: Walker at July 10, 2004 2:03 PMyou have got to be joking.
i have always had a problem with the idea of weblogs, thinking that they are really really gross and solipsistic, but i had thought your page was interesting, and might have cool ideas in it. this is just too much, though.
i imagine i am not the only one who will no longer be interested in this page hereafter.
I'm not sure that you read the whole post. It says nothing about subscribing to the weblog. Obviously that is a lame idea. I was merely suggesting that if a person was interested in my photography they could help support it & receive prints in return. If you did read it correctly & you still think that way then I don't know what to tell you. Sorry.
