Howdy. I take photos from time to time, develop and print at home in the kitchen and within a small darkroom I've built in a semi-portable shed outside the house. More often than not I scan my film at home and upload them to my Tumblr @ http://www.sakuretsuarmour.tumblr.com/

I would like to get better at printing. I want to do this by making free prints for people.

Basically, if I said I would make a free print for anyone on this forum, as long as they're willing to pay for postage, would people be interested? Maybe I should make a sample print and take some photos of how I'm planning on presenting them?

I'm thinking of glueing them to a nice thick off-white card on the lower front or on the back.
I'll use a typewriter to write some information about the shot on a smaller light grey card.
I'd post that in a nice flat protected brown envelope with a hand wrote thank you card.

This is a neat idea, but you might do better if you entered into a print exchange.
If you were local, I'd be happy to join in.
And by the way, you don't really need to create multiple threads in multiple fora - most people just monitor the active threads.
