The only real rule is that it has to be a photo that you took. Print it on whatever you want, however big you want, and frame it however you want.

so since this is my first any kind of exchange. Can someone explain a little more about the process. Am I sending a photo to everybody in my group? am I just sending the print.. am I framing too? what's expected here. Thanks for effort lvl_13 !
- lvl_130
Bogue-first off, welcome.
second, you send a photo to everyone in your group. there is no need to frame the print (that would be way too expensive). the size of the photo is up to you. (a postage stamp to a wall mural...it doesn't matter).
the expected is the unexpected. just send a photo that you think looks great and the size you think it looks best at.
any other questions? i'm here for you :)

last time most of us sent standard sizes 8x10, 11x14, 16x20 etc... some of us even sent panoramic shots. some sent one of their fav photos others sent two or three different ones to each member in group. some were mailed in tubes some in standard fedEx letter envelopes it's all good just don't lag. set time and money aside to do this so you don't become "that guy" who everyone is waiting on. also some members are outside of the U.S. so be prepared to wait longer and pay more for shipping.

right on.. i'm ready to go then. I'll pop in some new ink cartridges and get printing. Promise not to be "that guy". Also my photos are going to canadian as hell. Photos of trees signed "sorry".

I'll send email info to groups tomorrow.

Delivery time may take longer for some of us. but as long as it's shipped, it's fine.
please do have the courtesy to update here when shipped :)
- lvl_130
yup, agreed pango. just sent out emails to all groups.
if you have any questions post them here or just send me an email. happy trading and shit!

Here's a printing tip i think you guys can experiment with. This technique is best for preventing aliasing on prints with super fine lines and patterns.
If you know which printer you are printing from, do a research on how many nozzles per print head. And match your dpi of the photo to that number or 2x more or 1/2 less.
For example Epson Stylus Pro 3880 Has 180 nozzles per colour. Set your photo to 360 dpi or 180 dpi if you have to.

hi guys! some of you might know or have heard of Transfatty aka Patrick O'brian, member of this community since god knows when. here's a link to his thread over there < http://www.qbn.com/topics/680731…
Okay so point is, i'm gonna add him and send him a photo print, and thought maybe some of you would like to do the same. He's pretty awesome and would LOVE to receive snail mail/purrty pictures. i'm sure it would make his day. not sure if i should post his addy publicly so if you're interested, please shoot me an email.
comon! make a decent human being happy! ;) xoxo- great idea...send me the addy!dbloc
- done! :)sea_sea
- sounds like a good idea, but does he know what the hell this is about? might get weird if a bunch of random people are sending him photos, maybe?lvl_13
- sending him photos, maybe? I know him from NT and from working at the agency that designed the original POF site. never actually met the guy personally, but would love to send.lvl_13
- i'm all for it..just trying to be all old and adult like about sending him random things.lvl_13

lvl_13, i mentioned to transfatty there was a photo exchange going on and that i would send him a print. also that i would suggest it to you all. so he knows he might get some photos.
I would probably just mention who you are on here so he can identify you. just because we don't see him around much, doesn't mean he's gone. this guy is on his computer everyday. he's a visual, so he's gonna love getting these. plus who doesn't love getting snail mail? :)
