- 29 MARCH: I had hoped to be done before the end of March, but am not quite going to make it... we had about double the participation that I'd expected. So I won't be done for another week or so.
- I've started production of the book. It should take a week or two. If you are late submitting your tribute, go ahead and post it below.

THE PROJECT: I'm creating a tribute book for Scooter's family and I would like YOU to write it. I'm setting it up in blog format, because I will use Blurb.com to create the book, and they have software that enables you to import blog content into their book templates. The books they produce are spectacular. It is a real "coffee table" quality book on heavy paper, with a dustjacket. (Shutterfly also produces nice memory books, but does not offer the ability to import content in the same manner as Blurb.)
FORMAT: Anything you like, but TEXT and PHOTOS only (no videos, audio files, or animated gifs). Please include links for your Catster ID and/or blog address in your entry. This will make it possible for me to contact you with questions/problems, and will make sure Scooter's family knows who you are.
*** IMPORTANT !!! ***
PHOTOS: Please upload high resolution images. It will resize them smaller for the display on the blog, but will retain the high-res version for import into the book template. Small images will display the size of postage stamps in book format. If you only have small photos, that's fine, but high res print better. High res is in the neighborhood of 1600 pixels wide or higher. Bigger is better. Much better.
I would like to get at least 50 cats to pawticipate. If we have fewer than 20 entries, it may not make sense to do this project, so please tell everyone you know who knew and loved Scooter about this project.
DEADLINE: March 1st 2009. You can continue to edit your post until the deadline.
PROBLEMS? Send me a pmale on Catster.
