Scanlator looking for projects

This might be a little late to post this, but I'll try again in a few days when I can post earlier:

My partner [personal profile] sunnyskies looking to get back into scanlating things (Japanese to English), but as neither of us are heavily into anime/manga fandom anymore, we don't have much to pull from. So, if YOU have any doujin/manga scans that you'd like scanlated, send 'em my way and I'll be sure to get them to him :D His only rules are:
1) no guro (action-oriented violence is fine)
2) warn for horror/anything possibly nightmare-inducing
3) if it's a doujin, list the fandom so he can research if necessary (e.g. getting names/jargon romanized correctly).

He'd also like to note that he's not looking for a scanlating group - he prefers doing all the work himself. He'll likely post the work to his DW when he's finished.

One I'd love to see is the rest of Genju no Seiza. It's about half action and half philosophical/introspective. The protagonist is a teenage boy living in Japan, who is apparently the reincarnated leader of a country called Dhalashar. He struggles with controlling his spiritual powers (including seeing ghosts and auras, having visions, and even accidental time travel), and with the fact that the spirit guardians who are supposed to serve and defend the king of Dhalashar are divided over who they believe the king to be, leading to repeated assassination attempts. Tokyopop has (had?) it, but stopped at 8, and it's up to 14 in Japan. I know people tend to be wary with manga that someone owns the rights to, but it's completely stalled out ad far as I know, and I really want to find out if my personal theories are right!

Is there someplace with the raws scanned? We can't get anything ourselves, so we'd need the raws from somebody. (I really should've listed that. Hm.) It'll take him a while to do a longer project like this, but if the raws are up somewhere...

ETA - nevermind, found the raws. If the download links still work, I'll have him take a look at it. Tokyopop technically no longer exists, which is why the title was dropped. It currently has no English license, so I don't think there should be any problem with him taking a crack at it. I'll let you know where he decides to put up the finished product, if he's up to taking on a full series right now.

I found this on the internet, and I've wanted translations for forever, but I can't do it myself: http://smg.photobucket.com/user/tasogare_hime/library/Episodic%20Story%20Doujinshi?page=1
Let me know if there are any troubles with the link, and I'm pretty sure some pages are out of order.

It's a doujinshi for the Last Exile anime.

Also want to ask, if he does translate this, would it be ok to share other places, like Last Exile fan communities and such?
