Training, services, best practices, costs, opportunities and needs for cartography, illustration by hand, photography, and graphic design (i.e. the full range of illustration methods). This group is open to all members of the Research Cooperative.

Please give us your advice and questions on any aspect of image making here. Use the message box below (messages will be forwarded to all members of the group; add keyword tags to make it easier for others to find your message).

Offers and requests for ilustration help (all kinds of image) can also be posted here, as well as in the open forums for illustration offers and illustration requests.
