eff-exx Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 i'm too lazy to go through 7 pages of comments to see whether this has been suggested, but i was wondering, why don't we all send a postcard or a letter or a page designed by us, to a certain address, and that person just binds the pages together. of course, get a standard cutting of the page and so on. but i like this idea too :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohemul Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I think we want the book to have been around in the world.. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technicolor Sparks Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Ok so I'm waaayy too lazy to read through all the posts, so forgive me if someone has already suggested this: 1. We could send the book to Coldplay and they can see their fans all around the world (kinda like Postcards I guess) 2. And, instead of physically shipping the book to everyone, what if everyone interested in making a page just bought an individual scrapbook page (we can agree on a size and whoever puts the book together can buy a scrapbook that fits that size of paper), decorated it, and then sent their page to whoever is putting it together?

I think it should be more coldplaying related, just for everyone here to post a message or share little things. They already have the postcards thing from coldplaying. The problem is what to do with it afterwards. and 2. I think we want the book to have been around in the world.. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Coldplay already got our messages we wanted to say through the postcards project, I don't think we should send it to them, although it would be cool, I just feel like it's already been done. 2.) that could work, but I think what makes the "book" so special and fun is that it has traveled all over the world and just the fact that different people have had it.

Technicolor Sparks Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Yeah I suppose it should travel around the world to make it more..errr...worldly I guess. And we could always send it to Ian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Coldplay doesn't deserve my postcard. :mean: I think we'll just end up sending it to Ian. :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeya Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 2.) that could work, but I think what makes the "book" so special and fun is that it has traveled all over the world and just the fact that different people have had it. Technicolor Sparks' way can still be done and the book can still travel around the world. If we pass the book from one person to another at the decorating stage, we would have to pass it around again for every one to see the final result right? But if someone compile everything first and THEN pass it around the world then we would have to send it around only once. I don't have any preference though to be honest. I don't mind either way. Just trying to be practical here :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaLouiseSmyth Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 if you guys don't mind, i would prefer to send it around for each person to decorate their page. I think it would just be more cool, yaknow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pickle Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 What we'd planned on doing was having someone (more than likely the person who'll get it in the end) scan it and upload it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eff-exx Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 yeahh! compile then pass it around. and for those who doesn't want their addresses known can decline in having it pass their way and instead view it on the internet. :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makayla Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 What we'd planned on doing was having someone (more than likely the person who'll get it in the end) scan it and upload it here. how about after you make your page, just take a photo of it and everyone can post their photo on here. That way we can sort of keep track of the progress and see how many pages have been made... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeya Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 If we are passing the book, I have a question (might sound a bit silly :P) : Should we follow the order of the page or is everyone allowed to choose just any page to decorate? Personally I prefer to just follow the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaLouiseSmyth Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 I think following order of the pages would just be easier for everyone, i bet someone will decorate just a random page at the back :laugh4: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
