I'm with Keith: a traveling portfolio seems more appropriate, as we could reach a lot more people this way. Each submitter could send a limited number of copies (say 3 to 5), and those would generate the same number (3 to 5) of identical traveling portfolios, each with a different list of addressees, and each containing a copy of all different ink/workflow/paper combinations. It would take a while (a participated once in such a project, and was at the end of the list :-) but in the end, as I said, a lot more people would be able to see the results. Things would get even better if groups of people who live in the same area participate as a single person, and meet to see the prints (this would have the portfolio to linger a bit waiting for them to arrange the meeting, but would anyway be faster than having every single member of that group receive it separately). Of course, those who make the prints would be first in the lists, so that they have the advantage of seeing the results early. Do you think this is feasible? The only problem would be to find a volunteer that collects the prints and sends each portfolio to the first in line... Alessandro Pardi -----Original Message----- From: Editor P.O.V.

That would give more people a chance to see the options and even those of us who might participate but whose ink or paper of choice is already being printed could then benefit by reviewing the output of others.. > > Keith [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
