@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social Can you work out a provisional list of contents? Then identify ones where copyright on the basic images is iffy, and try to get original copyright-free base images of the same subject matter? If necessary, ask your fansβ€”crowdsourced images with a copyright waiver from the photographer would be fine as a basis for your work.

Time-consuming, I know, but I figure if you aim for 72 images you're already two thirds of the way there.

(I do not do picture books! I write novels.)

@cstross@wandering.shop I've considered that. If nothing else I could separate out clean posts that could go in as-is, ones that could be modified with a bit of fiddling, and then ones that rely on some oddity of the original that might be hard to duplicate. Perhaps I'll find more than I expect that are just peachy.

With a full-page picture, and the text next to it for ~72 images and some intro could be a 150+ page book. For a coffee table volume that'd probably do.

High quality prints of especially noteworthy creations perhaps?

The Johnathan comes to mind immediately as a glimpse of an alternative timeline that we didn't takes, but that someone probably did
