ah what a cute idea :)
so what kind of postcard should it be :)
and no Mannequin Pis or Atomium. :p :D
Somewhere I've got a couple of postcards (unused) of Chichen-Itza in Mexico bought on site.

I guess that just leaves Tin-Tin and beer.
:jk:
ps- I thought it was "Manneken Pis". But then I almost entered that one in a recent contest ...almost. ;)
Both spellings seem to be okay.

Could make a self made foto in to a postcard and send that.
Or maybee its your birthday soon? Then i can send a birthday greeting card :)
We could also make a photo where we are sitting behind the computer looking at the PA site.
Maybee an idee -> Groupphoto
Everybody sends his/here photo to PA and then we make a contest to make the best groupphoto that we can send as a postcard :) If then everybody sends the cards arround with there signature on them, we can have another contest who is the first to have all the signatures on his/here postcard.
The postman will be happy :)

I was thinking about city-photos principally,monuments, and if you got some of those cool 'boomerang' advertisement free postcards,... but hey, any card you want afterall.
Marcel, did you saw the PA COMP in the postyourportait/bio stickythread ? page 8 (at30posts/page) there is also one in posts of january. (page??)
that reminds me I've got to do the 2005 one or pass to another...
it's manneken pis... and he has got a different clothing for each day of the year but he prefer to go nude most of the time...

maybe we can scan the postcards and combine them for a contest or something along those lines?

You could make a list of everyone who wants to do this and then send out postcards in the old chain mail style.

Justy recieved yours Swillox :) Great!
Will send yours as soon as i can!
I really like this postcard exchange :) This way you realise again that you are dealing with a lot of nice people and not some type goats behind the computer.
So who else wants to send and recieve?

How bout a contest? Design your own postcard based on your location. Have everyone guess where you are from or something silly.

glad for you Marcel, ... you're right, having a postcard from another addict in hand do strangely "materialise" our web meetings. Also, I like your first idea to send signed perso-designs, those could build rare collection ;)
Joezilla, ... why the hell didn't I tought about that before you ??? :) sounds like a splendid photo-PS contest to me for sure !!
See ya'll.

About the contest, there surely be an admin answering soon,...
For the exchange:
Glad you dropped by here Mindgraph,... this thread felt in ignorance since june...
I disapointly must admit there was very low feedback from the others till now, ...
But, ... THERE WAS !
The set up is simple: PM (personal message) anyone you'd like to receive a card from (a REAL one !) with your (nick)name, street, number, state and land... (any working mailbox will do it since you need more privacy) Mention this thread of course since the addict maybe won't know what you're talking about :D. Ask him if he will do the trade and send you his own mail.
There, it's up to you both to decide some details like: what kind of card, (i.e. I asked MarcelSpijker for one of his best pic in his motorcycle shooting session), a special stamp, a special signature, etc..etc..etc...I like the idea of a signed print of a personal job.
For the rest, I suppose everyone remembers how to send a postcard. hmm? ;)
So, I'll PM you very soon if you're interested. :)
