Oh, and I’m slowly uploading photos that I think would print well, but if there’s something you’d like to see that’s not there, let me know.
Some of the older stuff is too low-res for anything but cards, and some of the images I’ve posted here are cropped small for web display and unusable for printing. But we’ll see what we can do.

Up yonder here in the Northwest we have been engaged in another creative project as well. At the end of last year we were invited to participate in this years 365 Degrees art project. The idea being to create one piece of new art every day for the entirety of 2008. Producing an art work every day turns out to be pretty challenging to say the least, but on the plus side, there are no limits on the created product (all medias and genres welcome). So i was thinking perhaps you can make an effort yourself to produce a new image each day (or an old one reworked in some way) for your print collection. Likewise that could go for The Theriomorph and Autography.

That sounds cool, spyder.
And hooray for Chris prints.
And I hope CRN readers will submit photo/text self portraits to Autography.

CC:
I would have bought a few cards just now (ravens, tortoises, and that sign at the corner of Ivanpah & Morning Star Mine Rds, an intersection I used to know well--my field study site is visible waaay down there in the Valley), but it wouldn’t let me use a credit card. Is there a minimum? Or PayPal (which I loathe) only? I couldn’t find any such information at the RedBubble site.
And hell yes re Carl!

No minimum, and though the shopping cart takes you to the PayPal screen, there is a link on the left side of that screen that says
“Don’t have a PayPal account?
Use your credit card or bank account (where available).”
and then if you click on “Continue” right next to that message, you can just use your credit card without signing into PayPal. Which I also loathe.

This is excellent. Glad I could help. (And: know how I found you? Just a couple of weeks ago, in an AskMetafilter question about where to read the most insightful feminist writing on blogs. Gotta love the webs.)

Done. That’s an unfortunate system--counterintuitive and misleading.
But my thank-you notes for xmas presents will be on Clarke(tm) cards this year!

To descend to photo-geekery… what camera have you got, because my Nikon (D2H) will print to 16x24, and I suspect I might be able to push it to 20x30.
That’s with a 4-MP sensor.
A lot of it has to do with the various maths of the mosaics, but that’s a whole ‘nother set of issues.

Terry; it’s a Canon Digital Rebel XTi, 8 megapixel flavor. RedBubble has what might seem draconian restrictions on file size: they simply won’t let you print images smaller than 10 megapixels in large format.
I know I’ve printed stuff at 8 by 10 I shot with my two megapixel point-and-shoot and it looked photo quality to me. But given that tons of my stuff was shot hand-held—a near necessity when shooting insects, in my travels—I’m fine with the size restrictions for now. Saves me from my bad habits.

Just got my cards--absolutely beautiful. RedBubble does nice work.
Interestingly, they were shipped from Australia.
