Description:

OK ... we were all new on here at some point. I am looking to help out some of our newest members. Let's do a profile suprise swap with a $5 price floor. If you choose to spend more than that, understand it is not required in return.

I will be looking at profiles to make sure that everyone has a sufficient profile to participate. My decision will be based on if it is relatively easy to send to you.

This will be easy as you will only have one partner and will be US only (ok to copy for international) to help with postage.

Of course Newbies are welcome and those that are veterans .. 4.8 or above with no no-sends. I understand about unfair ratings so let me know if you have anything you think would keep you from this swap.

Let's show the newbies all the wonderful people we have on this site!!

what's going on with this swap

LadyDonkey 03/ 1/2009 #

I'd really like to know who I got before I leave the house today

aolsonjax13 03/ 1/2009 #

When will we learn about our partner?

fancythisword 03/ 1/2009 #

Hi chuck, I saw the yellow square up on the right, and clicked on "See the Partners you send to" and I found my partner! And the address to send to, however, I am having a hard time finding the profile for the person, so as to reference their likes and dislikes. I am feeling totally inadequate as I can't find it. Please help? I will keep trying and will check back here later. Thank you, Debra

arianna81 03/ 2/2009 #

Hi Debra, Where the address is listed, you should see your swap partner's username listed in parentheses next to the address. If you click that, you will go to their profile - BUT! Keep in mind, the profile opens in a different window (at least, that's been my experience). So if you are clicking & it looks like nothing's happening, make sure you check for other browser windows; they might have it.

Also, if you still can't get that to work for you, use the following URL: http://www.swap-bot.com/user:arianna81 (replacing "arianna81" with your partner's username, of course!).

good luck & happy swapping!, Arianna

fancythisword 03/ 2/2009 #

Thank God for Arianna81!!!!! lol

Helllloooooo, Is this swap over? I havent heard much of anything and am a bit unsure of the process here. Is there an offical time limit for folks to reply with feedback or for package to be sent out recieved etc? Much Peace to all

Invisible 03/14/2009 #

Tero, there is no time frame for hearing if your package was recieved. There are some swappers that won't ever let you know that they got it...nor will they rate...which stinks for a newbie swap...but it does happen. Give it a few more days and you can PM your partner and see if they got it.

Tero 03/15/2009 #

Thanks so much Invisible. Coming from another craft place it is hard trying to learn the new rules and etiquette. :)
