I have become an affiliate to Craft And Vision.

And today they're having a 50% off everything sale. Just go there and get your 50% discount using the code XMASCARD this runs out at midnight today PST.

Oh.. I'll let you into a secret.. They're going to be giving away one of their books for free next week. I'll keep you posted.

Click here to visit Craft And Vision.

Sorry if this is Spam, but at least I was honest from the start. If you click on the link, it registers anything you buy as being from me, If you don't want me to get any compensation (and it is only cents) then go direct to the site without going through the affiliate link. Craft & Vision | Great photography happens where craft and vision converge

By the way, I can recommend their new book, Beyond Thirds

Jon, are you sure about the 50% off EVERYTHING? I thought it was only on the bundles (with separate codes for each bundle) and on the $40 gift card (another separate code).

I was planning on buying several books but then saw your link and thought would give you commission on it, but your code doesn't work (just tried a few times).

You want to double check on that?

Hehe that's ok, it's such a great deal I wish I had $66 to buy all of them!

Dont' forget that the Gift Certificate coupon if purchased at the 50% discount will only be applicable starting Saturday, 12 am. This is definitely to prevent people from using the gift voucher discount on top of the bundled discount

Also, the additional notes with the Gift Card:

Once you make the purchase our shopping cart system will email you a unique 5-digit code which is valid for PDF eBook purchases at Craft & Vision | Great photography happens where craft and vision converge. You can write that code in a card or send it digitally to your chosen gift recipient.

*NOTES: Gift coupons do not expire. Gift coupons cannot retain any unspent value for future use. Gift coupon codes will be activated for use (Saturday) November 26, 2011 at 12:00am PST.


Guys, the books are really worth it at such great price. Buy them from Jon as it won't cost you any more than buying it directly from the site.

We like supporting our friends, even if it's only a few cents

Oh Jon, by the way, BT4 code has expired. Don't know if that's the same case for BT20.

Thanks Grace.

I'm Rich, I'm rich!! Well rich in heart.. I'm not going to be able to retire off these, the only reason I became an affiliate was because I could use these discount codes to buy the stuff too, and get commission on my own purchases.. I don't really understand all this stuff..

hey, tell you lot what.. Since it's Christmas and this commission thing isn't really what I did this for, here's an idea.

I will give 100% of the commission I earn from sales on these books to charity. I mean 100% forever, not just today. I've got another job, and this isn't earning me enough to get me anything wonderful, so I'll give it to something that will appreciate the cash more than me.

What I'd like then is a few ideas of worthwhile charities. I've got a soft spot for Africa or Asia, but I don't mind local charities either.. Only thing they need is the ability to receive via Paypal because that's how I'm getting paid.. Post a few of your favourite charities (They have to be registered charities in the country you are resident, not just "Beer fund" ) If you have strong feelings for something someone else posted, +1 it and I'll add a bit more weight to that one. I'll tell you which one is getting how much each time I get some cash in PayPal from C&V.

Happy Christmas, Thanks giving, Honika, Ramadam, New Year etc.

Default Thank you!

Just wanted to say Thank You for the link!

I have been looking for some e-books on photography topics for my new playbook. These deals were too good to pass up!

The charity giving is a bonus - I don't have a suggestion but wanted to commend you on your choice to give in the first place

I recently joined DPS and am finding the community to be one of sharing and caring (not to mention SO helpful for those just starting out!)

Well some of you have been buying some reading material, so far I've got about $10 for some charity, just not a charity to give it to... Come on you lot.. This money isn't going to go in my pocket, give me some ideas.
