I really want the book but the shipping is ridiculous. 30$? It'd be stupid of me to spend 100$ on a book. :(

Actually, I want to DOWNLOAD the video to my hard drive, not just streaming it...

Here's a retouch/textless version of the Cawaii cover. Sorry if it seems blurry in some spots; the hair and shadows were really hard and I had to use the healing brush for a lot of it:

i live in canada too and i paid about 100$ for the book.. cause i really want the actual thing instead of the scans... :( i feel both stupid and lucky~ :luv2

omg ryoko hirosue!

I can recognize that face everywhere ^.^

Well, it's going to end up worth a LOT more than that soon, haha.

I think it's completely worth it considering it's completely going to the Red Cross minus the shipping.

I have a feeling the front cover will be the main ayu pic and the back of the book will be the scawaii photo

thanks for the video :) the book looks a lot bigger and thicker than I thought it would XDD

anyone going for the event can help me get a copy?

That's a possibility.

They mentioned that there are two different book covers that have the same contents though on the official site so... who knows~

From nootak's twitpic.

Anyone know where to get the book now? Everywhere is sold out. :(

^try ebay or other auctions

I think it doesn't matter what cover you get, the other pic will be inside. I mean, if you get the new photo on the cover the scawaii one will be inside, and if you get the scawaii photo on the cover the new one will be inside (: I think it's logical lol

I search a scan textless of the new cover (no with Ayu's long hair), please, someone?

That's good to know. I actually can't decide which cover to get either.

I just hope her lips are better in the other pics in the book, they're destroying the whole cover for me. Especially if you look at it from far away, they look huge, meh.

Yep, the lips are kinda... "ew" xD

The book is gorgeous. My roommate bought it today. :) It's huge.

Ayu (The S Cawaii picture) is the front cover, and the back is Cindy Crawford.
The new picture of Ayu has Crystal Renn as the back cover.

I don't know if my roommate picked this cover or if it was given at random. If it were me, I'd definitely have picked the new image, but either way it looks fantastic. (Although, the Crystal Renn cover is ugly :-\ I'd rather look at Cindy on the back haha.)

I will not be scanning this, so please don't ask. haha. Also, I'd take pictures, but at the moment I have no idea where my camera cord is. :-\

Ayu has 2 pictures in the book. One is a new shot from the same shoot as the cover, and the other one is, I believe, an old shot. She has long hair, so I'm assuming old. I think it's the same shoot as S Cawaii.

It came in the signature Tiffany bag :) And the book itself has a removable plastic cover over it.
