Yes
Following on from the very successful zine swap would anyone be interested in a print exchange
Thinking along the lines of an anonymous Secret Santa type thing, so just one to send/receive
Make it A4 size for ease and cost of postage, fit nicely in one of the cardboard backed envelopes at large letter price.
Might be nice to receive a random print, possibly to your taste or maybe not, luck of the draw

I'm happy to collate and send out the names, sender solely responsible for print and postage costs obviously.
Thinking commit and details sent in and then out by June 11th and prints exchanged by July 16th

Open to any suggestions, in fact they would be very welcome.

Any interest?

@Cobra Any chance you could sticky this too please, no payment involved, thanks

UPDATE

1. Between now and Friday 11th June, Please PM me with your forum name, real name and address.

(New Entries still welcome, but details need to be with me by the end of Friday 11th June)

2. By Monday 14th June, I will send a PM out to all those taking part with details of the person whom they need to send their print to.

3. Post your print to your named recipient by July 16th

It might be nice if during or at the end of the swap period everybody could share their received print here.
No obligation whatsoever, but I for one would certainly be interested to see what everybody produced.

Thanks and enjoy!!

Are we agreed on max size of A4?

I'll have to get the scissors out........................


I said A4 because its a size that many people can manage without a specialised printer.
Also makes it easier and cheaper to post, tried to encourage as many people as possible to take part.
So yes I think its probably right that we stick to that now, but ultimately its up to you.
 
Details received from everyone, thanks very much, we have 17 printers including myself, an excellent response.

Last call if anyone else fancies a go, details to me by end of the 11th please.
 
Hopefully everyone has now received the details of their recipient.

Please let me know if you haven't.

Thanks and happy printing
 
Print printed, envelope written. Will be in the post on Monday!

Exciting times! - Thanks for organising this Rich. I know it's early days but do you think you'll organise another?

Blimey Ian, that was quick, I've not done anything yet.

I can't see why I wouldn't organise another, probably ask everyone if they would like to see any changes.
Surprised to get so many participants, 100% commit rate from the 18 who registered an interest, excellent.
 
I was hoping to have a printer by now :( but on the plus side, ordering a direct ship from a lab was easy :) Done. So much pressure choosing a print though :D

Not such an easy challenge as it first sounds, I'm still choosing the photo.
Then comes the processing bit, what will look best in printed form.
Possibly harder without your own printer, not being able to see how it looks on paper,
