Thanks to everyone for the overwhelming support so far.

Only 3 days left to order! Once order close, there'll be no further chance to buy this years compendium. So be quick!

They're going to print very soon. As we said before, we expect/hope to have them sent out by the end of October.

I can't wait either.
Had to get a larger coffee table (lol) since I've got another book arriving on Tuesday from an overseas forum (photography) with two of my images in it as well.
It's a 200 page volume and all entries where voted on.
It'll make a nice set with the IIS book.

OK - I was waiting for Mike to say something, but he hasn't yet - so I will.

Mike and myself went to the printers and signed off on the final proofs yesterday afternoon. They looked, quite frankly, beautiful. We were also shown a full book mock-up, and it was fantastic to be able to hold it in hand with pages in the order they'll be in.

Printing and binding should be finished, and books delivered to Mike for disbursement, on or around the 30th of October as promised. From there we pray to the AustPost gods for quick delivery! We may yet commission the printers to manage that for us - we'll keep you...uhmmm.. posted!
