> OCTOBER - No Theme - Print Exchange data sheet
> 
> * Sign up will be limited to the first 15. 
> 
> * Will also accept prints from 3 alternates (if not needed to ship 
> prints on due date, will automatically be the first included in the 
> next 3 spots ((I will email you with details))).
> 
> * Prints must arrive on West Coast U.S. by OCTOBER 4.
> 
> * Unless we find it is impossible from the country of origin (or 
> Piggly Wiggly Stores), shipping should include a prepaid return 
> shipping voucher/label (and container if the original cannot be 
> reused...I have found that most originals cannot). I will work with 
> anyone who really has a problem with this, but this really is what is 
> making the monthly exchange work.  I strongly prefer Fedex, but UPS 
> is fine, too if you include the shipping label. Prints will get 
> redelivered in order of ease of delivery..i.e. not sure when I can 
> get time off to stand in line at the Post Office.)
> 
> * Prints will be BOTH Letter and A4. This is a shipping challenge. It 
> is imperative that all prints be shipped in a container that will 
> accomodate BOTH SIZES of paper since the return will include both 
> sizes. The MEDIUM Fedex box fits the SMALL Fedex Box inside for very 
> easy return and the SMALL BOX neatly holds both sizes of print. DO 
> NOT SEAL THE SMALL BOX... maybe add a little tissue or newspaper for 
> protection. PLEASE FIX THE RETURN LABEL ON THE SMALL BOX SO I DON'T 
> MESS UP WHO THE PRINTS GO TO. This would be the method STRONGLY 
> PREFERRED for quick easy turnaround. Sending prints in the 
> manufacturer's paper box WILL NOT WORK... A4 will not fit in letter, 
> nor will letter fit in A4. Please attach your shipping label 
> correctly to the box...this is ocassionally critical as it gets 
> confusing sorting.
> 
> * Prints should all be enclosed in individual glassine/plastic 
> holders with a description sheet facing the back (for sorting). 
> PLEASE NOTE THE EXCHANGE MONTH THE PRINTS ARE ENTERED IN (I usually 
> have 3 months being shipped at once). The print protectors are 
> available from many sources, small quantities are for sale at 
> inkjetart.com... larger quantities all over the internet. The 
> description should include at least: Print title, your name, shooting 
> data, printing data. At a minimum this should include printer, 
> inkset, software (including print driver/software). Any comments or 
> stories on workflow would be very interesting and welcome.
> 
> * NO THEME THIS MONTH... wide open for your interpretation....
> 
> * After I receive 15 signups, I will post a "closed" on the forum, 
> but will continue to take names for a waiting list, just in case we 
> have a "drop out" or "no show" but I will not enlarge past the 15 
> level so those who chose to can print early and mail them off. If any 
> of the 15 participants are late, their prints will be replaced by any 
> I might have from Alternates so we can start shipping prints on the 
> due date to accommodate all those people who always get them in on 
> time.
> 
> * Any suggestions for this exchange or future ones solicited and 
> welcome (all the ideas came from the forum anyhow...unless you REALLY 
> like them, then they ARE mine <g>).
