Default Print Exchange Round 108 March 2019

I must start with a big thankyou to MikeHeller who has spent many months creating a commuter programme to help me sort out the Print Exchange each month. The system he has created makes my task so much easier and reduced the likelihood of mistakes. We tried it out last month for February and it worked very well. It was not a simple task for Mike and involved many hours at the computer which will benefit us all and myself in particular. Thankyou Mike.

Now onto Round 107, February 2019 print exchange. All those who want to participate please post here and send me a PM to confirm your address if I do not already have it or you have changed your address.
Closing date for registering your entry is 28th February 2019. Latest date for sending your print is 31st March 2019. I am only looking for one print in a month.

I would add that if you do join the exchange and later encounter problems which prevent you from completing then please contact me by PM. Sometimes we do get confronted by the unexpected but if I and the other two people involved (sender and receiver) know you have a problem then it does take out the uncertainty in our minds and perhaps find a solution.

Print Exchange Rules
To start with you will have the remainder of this month to sign up, the cut-off being the last day of the month. If you wish to be included then make a post on this thread to that effect, and at the same time send me a PM with your name, and address.
Head the PM with the title “FADU Print Exchange Round”, and add the round number
At the beginning of next month those that have given me their details will be provided with the name and address of one other member to whom you will be expected to send your print before the end of the month.

You will not be told who has been asked to send you a print, so that it remains a surprise until you receive it. When you send your print please post to that effect on this thread, but do not say to whom you have sent it. We like to maintain the element of surprise until the last moment. When you receive a print please post to that effect on this thread, you may say who it is from and comment on it if you wish.

Anyone failing to send out their print without good reason will be excluded from future events. If you run into difficulty in this respect then please let me know.
If you wish to participate then confirm your intention on this thread and also send me a PM with your name and address.
The selection process will be as random as possible, and I will try and ensure that you receive a print from a different person in each round although eventually there will be some repetition.

There is a Gallery for posting your print after it has arrived with the recipient. It is not compulsory but it does make the Exchange more interesting to all members of the forum and displays your work to others.

Rules
• Your print must have been printed from a negative exposed in a film camera
• Inkjet, digitally printed photographs, or computer manipulated images are not allowed
• Your print paper can be any size that will fit in an envelope up to A4 size
• The image may be any size or format
• Paper type and finish is your choice, as is the subject
• Alternative processes, toning or other treatments are all accepted
• It is recommended you provide some background information with your print to assist your recipient as this encourages interchange
• Don‟t forget to enclose your details and FADU name so your recipient can thank you
• You are only responsible for the cost of posting your own print
• Please ensure you dispatch your print within the round month
• You must enjoy the experience
• If you have any queries or problems -please contact me as soon as possible.
Tony

Yes please Tony!

Nearly first again to put my name down, but probably close to last to send a pic out, although I am just about to do the print for the February exchange so will try and do one then

Tony, just to let you know of a little typo = 2nd paragraph, where you write, 'Now onto Round 107, February 2019 print exchange.'It should read Round 108, March 2019 print exchange.'

But thanks as always for doing all the work behind the scenes for these exchanges and well done to member Mike Heller for doing the programming for you. Anything that helps is great in my view!

Terry S

Yes please count me in again.

Tony's thanks are quite unnecessary and has jumped me into the next round before I have printed or sent out this month's offering.

My involvement is very much selfish and does not involve any programming thank goodness....yet. I have been wanting to get my head round Microsoft 'Access' relational database for some time, which I had already identified as probably the way to go and for which it provided the perfect incentive. Still a way to go to make it bombproof but getting there!!

I have an intense dislike of games and those role-play exercises so beloved of 'Management' Training Courses which were inflicted upon people who were expected to 'manage' people rather than doing anything actually useful. I can only learn if I have an actual problem to solve!
Mike
