Request 8883.  ARCHAIC INDIANS IN MISSOURI 
  Hi we are doing a book on Missouri and we need images/illustrations of Archaic Indians in Missouri (7000 to 500 BCE)
..or just Archaic Indians

the text in the book:

The third period is referred to as the Archaic Period and is divided into the Early Archaic, the Middle Archaic, and the Late Archaic time frames, which stretch from about 7000 to 500 BCE. As those thousands of years passed, the people’s diet changed. Some caught fish and wild birds, others collected clams and oysters. As the people’s diets changed, so too did their tools. Scientists, therefore, can tell, from the shapes of the tools that have survived until now, which period those ancient humans might have lived in and what they ate. By 3000 BCE there were signs that those hunter-gatherers became less nomadic. They were not constantly on the move, hunting animals. Some bands began to settle down and live in groups, often along the sides of rivers. That was also a time of weaving clothes and baskets made from natural fibers and, eventually, the making of pottery.

Request 8860.  CANON RAW FILES FOR USE IN PHOTOSHOP TUTORIALS 
  We’re looking for high-quality Canon RAW images to illustrate a series of tutorials on RAW files and using the Adobe Camera RAW editor. We need to demonstrate techniques that are relevant to ACR editing, so we're particularly interested in 'problem' images that need adjusting in RAW. Particular issues might include high-contrast lighting, blown-out highlights, lack of detail in shadows or highlights, incorrect white balance etc etc.

Basically we want to rescue and/or improve shots that haven't quite worked in camera, so ideal shots might be exposures that weren't quite right, settings that were incorrect etc. We're a specialist photography magazine aimed at Canon SLR users, so in terms of composition and sharpness etc the images still need to be of the highest quality, as the end result will need to be as eye-catching as possible.

All images MUST be photographed using a Canon Digital SLR and you must be able to supply an un-processed RAW file (PD note: you will need to create a low res jpg from your unprocessed RAW file for initial upload to PD), so we can see what we have to work with. A low-res version of the image will be included on a cover-mounted disc that accompanies the magazine to be used as a source file - our readers are encouraged to follow tutorials using these images. 
   
Budget: 
Inside, 1/4 page:  UK£75    (1/4 page, inside book, magazine or brochure)
Notes on Budget:  Tutorial images will run as 1/4-1/2 page and will also be supplied as a low res source file on the cover mounted disc. They will be manipulated in the tutorials.

Request 8819.  HIGH QUALITY DIGITAL RAW IMAGES FOR TUTORIALS 
  This is a general request for colour landscape images. We’re looking for quality pictures to be used in the tutorial section of Digital Camera magazine.

The original RAW version of the image will be included on the cover mounted disc that accompanies the magazine and it will be used as a source file so that readers can follow the tutorials.

Images will be altered and manipulated using Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Camera Raw so we will require the original raw file. However the emphasis is on making a good picture better rather than salvaging a bad one, so we require excellent compositions.
