Description:

I currently have a Scavanger Hunt for regular 4x6 photos -- but a few have asked if they could use Poloroids! So, here is the same swap -- but with POLOROIDS ONLY!

You will have only one partner. You will post a list of 15 random items in the "add a comment" section.

When partners are paired -- take a look at their list, get behind the lens and take a Poloroid shot of TEN of their items -- Send those TEN pictures to them. Write (neatly) or label each picture -- or include a note of explanation.

Items can be specific, such as a "yellow car" or more open to interpt., such as "something round". Maybe "an arrangement of fruit"? Or "something that smells good"? LOTS OF POSSIBILITES!!

The idea is to make things a little bit of a challenge and possibly not something that normally would get its picture taken!!

Please keep lists and pictures -- clean, non-suggestive and NOT something that might be offensive...

Please package the pictures so that they avoid moisture or bending in the postal systems - Use bubble wrap or sturdy packaging and Zip top or plastic bags...

This swap is open to the EVERYONE. Wouldnt it be neat to get pictures from somewhere else, you might not otherwise get to "see"??

Please have a good rating and a COMPLETE profile.

Come on shudder bugs! Lets take some POLOROIDS!!

didn't the sign up date/drop date start already?

pandagirl 01/30/2007 #

Maybe the delay is due to the new feature that allows the swap organizer to assign swaping partners, Otherwise the "site" randomly selects your partner.
I dunno. Just guessing. :)
