Subject: Weigh in on breaking down into
smaller groups
Rule #7 states that unless we have more than 30 participants we WILL NOT
break into smaller groups.
Folks, we're zeroing in on 30 (we're at 27 right now) and will likely hit
that number by Friday.
Personally, I'm with you...I prefer to send to everyone and get one of
everything...no matter how many participants there are.
Depending on if we go over 30 and by how much, that will determine how I
break this up.
I will continue to keep you updated.

RULES:
Since I volunteered to do this and no one balked at
that, I'm going to make a few rules so everyone is on the same page.
1. If I don't have your mailing address, you can't
participate (because no one will know where to send postcards)!
2. Several newbies did not understand that you must
use your own photograph as the postcard. I made the assumption that was
understood...my bad.
3. Postcards can be created however works best for
you...in your darkroom, on the computer, at a lab. Last time some folks had
images printed at a lab then just wrote on the back and put on a stamp. That
is a very fine way to do this. You are totally up to your own creative limits
about what goes on them and how you create them.
4. The cut-off for getting mailing addresses to me is
NEXT FRIDAY. Not Saturday, not Sunday. FRIDAY. If I don't have it by then you
are out this round. That gives everyone a week.
5. The mail date has not yet been determined but if
you've sent me your address, consider yourself in and begin creating
6. I will have the complete list of participants and
their mailing addresses posted no later than NEXT SUNDAY so you'll know the
total number of cards to produce.
7. I am not going to break this down into smaller
groups unless there are more than 30 participants.
8. Creativity and conscience dictate content.

Lea,
You had said something about breaking the masses of
respondents into groups. This seems to indicate that Cathy and I would
ultimately be excluded from receiving half (or two-thirds, or
three-quarters, etc.) of the glorious specimens being mailed all over the
globe. We don't mind spending the extra postage (postcard stamps are just
about the cheapest there are!), if it means we'll get the full set... Is
there any way we could be in multiple groups? Or is that just being
selfish?
