Time for another print swap!
Tom stepped down after swap 10 due to personal reasons, and I'm here to continue the swaps for the next year or two.
As usual, the swap is completely dependent upon user participation; the more we have involved, the more fun and variety everybody has.
Please see the FAQ here: http://web.mac.com/erikhaugsby/iWeb/Site/Print%20Swap.html
It's the same as Tom's, but if you've participated before please re-read it just to refresh yourself on the rules.
Also if you've participated before, let me know who you've been partnered with so you don't get the same swap partner twice.
Sign-ups will be open for about a week, as usual. I'll draw names after closing sign-ups and then notify everybody of their partners.
Joe, please un-sticky #10 and sticky this one.
I will be pleased to participate: my submission already sent to Erik!
It is a great project, thanks Erik for your efforts.
Erik
Just a note to say that in the FAQ instructions if you click on your e-mail address to send contact details someone else's email address (presumably Tom's) appears in the email programme.

Here are the print swap pairings.
I've also this list in an email to each of the participants, but this will remain as a permanent list.
Please contact your swap partner for shipping and address details.
If your partner does not respond, please let me know.
Post back to this thread with your progresses as well, as it helps gauge the swap's success.

Email received. Ive emailed my swap partner. Thanks Erik!
I have just emailed Brad.
Thanks Erik for the organization of the print swap.
In times of heated discussions and some people leaving RFF, it is good to have such a "pure" activity here.

I will second (or third, or...) the praise for Erik. This is so refreshingly .... photographic! :D
Having just stumbled across this thread, im thinking this could be fun. So in preparation of the next one (having missed this cut off) I have a question or two to ask! In layman’s terms, is the purpose of this "print swap" to send to someone else a picture for them to keep? and presumably of a quality or topic you are proud of? and in return they send the same to you?
pesphoto

yup, you got it.
Excellent, i'll certainly keep an eye out for the next one!

what if our swap partner doesn't respond. HAsnt been that long though.
Sometimes, a print gets lost in the mail for over a week. Be patient.

Ouch...missed this one!
Will look forward to the next one. I've participated in a past swap, and enjoyed it.

That's exactly it: to share personal photographic preferences and talents with another (presumably) complete stranger.
This is RFF, as far as I care to hope.

During the last swap I had to wait over 1 week to hear from my swap partner; this unfortunately slows down the overall process, but in the end I did get his print.
If it's more than a week, please email me for further discussion, if you will.

I emailed with Jim tonight. We're ready to go!!
I have mailed my address to Andrew, but I have not yet received any reply from him neither his address where I can send the print.
Maybe Erik can help me.
Thanks and have a nice day!

I received my print from Jim...a beautiful 11x14 landscape shot with his M8.
There is a postal strike in the UK at present so I have not yet sorted my print out. They should be going back to work today, but more strikes are planned next week and they have a huge backlog of mail to deliver in the meantime.

I received my print from Raid! A wonderful sunset photo!

...and I have received from Brad an excellent B&W print! Thanks, Brad.

I deliberately miss this one as I am busy arranging the Traveling Camera project. But Erik, I'll be there for the next one.
Any tentative date for it?

Will,
I'm looking at sometime mid-January for the next swap.
Sad to see this seems to have faded away. :(
