Blind Print Exchange Round 25 (BPX25) - Sign Up Thread

=============================


Happy New Year everyone!

It is time again to sign up for the new round of the Blind Print Exchange. Please read the sticky FAQ if you are new to the exchange. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to mail(PM) me.

If you want to sign up, PM me your full real name and your complete mailing address, including the country. Please use the subject: BPX25 signup.

We're on a four month cycle. I think that is viable. Shorter periods are hard to manage for most of us, but longer period lead to lose this exchange out of sight. So I stay with 4 months. That means:

Signup: January 2017 (ending 31 January 2013 at 23:59 h UT)

Print and Send: February and March 2017

Rest and Relaxation: April 2017


If you run late, we don't care, no need for apologies. Just let me know.

Please remember, if you have not fulfilled your obligations for one of the previous BPX exchanges, try to do so before signing up.

I very like BPX. It is an inexpensive way to own real excellent photographs. And it is a way for presenting your own work.

Fine prints doesn't need to be extra large (which lead to high shipping rates). But they should be FINE. Make the best what you are able to in the darkroom. You will find that your prints get better with every BPX round. Enjoy it!

Therewith we have a real BPX round established! With only two or three participants there is no "blind" facet in it (only one possible way to arrange it).

Dear Laurent, please PM me your address.

 

[spijker]

I'll add a bit more blindness to the exchange. Please put me on the list. I'll send a pm with my address.

[tezzasmall]

As a relative newbie to this site, please put me down for this round.

Question: I've had a look but can't find anything so ask, is there a 'specific place / link to' that is used for both this and the 'postcard exchange rounds' so that everyone can see prints sent out to everyone else? A real shame if not...

A pm is on its way with my full details.

I encourage everybody to show show their print here (a scan of it of course) after the recipient got it. If you don't are a subscriber you need own webspace for that. It is easy to set a link here. This is the way I know.

 

[jvo]

i'm not a purist, just never got interested in scanning... the last of the Luddites???!!??

It is even possible to make a shot with the smartphone. No scanner needed.
