I have to find the thread with all the info but we can start signing up or at least think about what you might want to shoot. Deadline for signing up should be June 1st, that gives everyone plenty of time. Post cards should be mailed out by July 1st.
No theme, only requirement really is that we use film (of course).
Send me your name and address if you want to play. If anyone has questions, please contact me or put them on this thread.
-------------------------------------
finally found the thread from last years postcard swap hosted by Becky ( thank you Becky, took me awhile to find this but I am going to use your instructions since they are perfect, of course!
Announcing a new postcard exchange, "The Summer Postcard Swap"
The rules are the same but if you're new here, this is how it goes:
1) Sign up by June 1, if you want to play.
PM me your name and address with country and e-mail.
I need your e-mail address to contact you since the forum only allows two private messages an hour. If you don't send me your e-mail, it will take a LOT longer to get your list of names.
2) Names will be sorted on June 5
Since we have Filmwasters from around the globe, I'll sort and divide the collected names into manageable groups (about 12 per group) to keep the cost of printing and postage at a manageable level.
Next I'll make a list of the sorted names and addresses and send them to everyone that signed up by June 3.
3) Postcards should be sent out by July 1
Cards can be printed in the darkroom or with inkjet printers on any paper (6x4 or 5x7 inches)
The important thing is the negative used to make the print must be a film capture.
The subject matter is entirely up to you and it's not a competition either, so have fun with it!
You can send the same print to everyone on your list, or you can make different prints for each person, it's up to you.
Details about the image such as location, camera and film type written on the back with a short message are appreciated but not required.
Stamp, address and then sign the card so we know who it's from and drop it in the mail and then wait for amazing cards to arrive in your post box.
This is always a lot of fun, so don't miss out.
Once again the important dates to remember are:
June1= last day to sign up.
June 5=names sorted into groups and sent to participants.
June 30= deadline to send out cards.
any questions just let me know.
