Thats cool lvl-- I will come back for the next round... we had been travelling bit (and shooting alot) then spent about a month building a letterpress studio for my wife, (we got a big 9x12 letterpress..) then I destroyed my shoulder training, and had surgery in Oct, followed by a month of couch and OyxContin, finally now getting back up and around...
- damn! well glad you are back up and running. next round for sure!lvl_13
- I'll be back fo sure.. got a ton of new stuff, gonna try to re-do my site on x-mas vacation...nicnichols

I'll be sending my prints wednesday. I forgot to ask before, what size photos should i be sending?
- lvl_130
it's up to you daro. i've sent out 13x19 and 8x8 so far in the previous trades.

nic, what kind of press did you get? My wife and I purchased a Kluge 9x12 about a year ago and just love it. The invitation business has been doing good too.

Capn- we got a Golding (spelling?) its a biggin.. and build a studio to house it and the inks, racks ect.. She has been doing a lot of letterpress, so it was time to make the investment.. pretty excited to start getting my hands dirty!

you'll love it. just don't lose a finger. Those things don't stop for anything. Our kluge is like 2000lbs and takes our one car garage to house. big fun though.

i'm struggling with the signature for some reason!? the prints i have received have been completely random: some on the front. some on the back. some non-existent.
for the last 2, i have put my signature on the back of the print. i have also included the location and the ntphe number.
is there a preference? i am obviously overthinking this whole scenario...but maybe there could be a standard set?! i think it would be kind of nice to know where the print came from/who it came from. but that doesn't mean it has to be on the front. thoughts from all?
- uhhh. signatures? *blushes with inexperience.jaylarson
- it doesn't really matter jay. there have been a lot of people that haven't signed their prints. no big deal reallylvl_13
- haha, mine not signed eithaflashbender
- neverblink0
I havn't signed or dated the prints, I did add a little background info about the location and situation the picture was taken in. So if you (capn/jay/sikma) recieve an anonymous letter from Europe, you can bet it's mine ;)
- Daro0
I sent mine today...shit! i didn't put any background info or anything....i'm an ntphe virgin
- doesn't matter. i think i just scared a bunch of people! :)lvl_13
- but your level, i mean, lvl, of attention to detail is noteworthy and i hope to be similar next round.jaylarson
- punny. very punnyflashbender
- lvl_130
i forgot to mention. although v3 and osfa should get their prints probably the beginning of next week, slappy they said yours would take 1 to 2 weeks...i'm thinking probably closer to 2 because of the christmas rush...but who knows!
- slappy0
Yeah man, 2 weeks sounds about right. I will send mine out over the weekend with any luck.
- lvl_130
sweet! can't wait!
this is the quickest turnaround ever, hehe.
- capn_ron0
alright, mine are going in the mail today. jaylarson and lvl_13 should get them early next week. skima and neverblink, i don't know how long for you guys cause you be outta the states. Hopefully not too long.
- flashbender0
mine went in the mail today. 8hrday should get his tomorrow, Daro Ruffian, you should get yours in "6-10 business days".
Just pics... no signature, no info just a pic. I'm a minimalist.
