Guess I'm disqualified. The only printing I do these days is with a Canon
inkjet printer from either digital pictures or scanned negatives (I use both
types of cameras).

Subject: [pure-silver] Re: Print exchange/maybe postcards? Participant list
I’m really sorry to not be participating in this round. I haven’t been in
my darkroom for quite a while and we’re about to tear it apart to fix the
crumbling walls—a downside of owning a 19th Century house. I have high
hopes for the NEXT round.

Janet,
New grandchildren and a backlog of negative to process will preclude me
from joining you in this exchange.
One question that came to mind regarding "lab" prints is that most lab
prints are made today on inkjet (admittedly, high-end inkjet) printers.
That sort of goes against the Pure-Silver paradigm. So, you might want to
specify something regarding the type of technology used.
On the other hand, you're running this Exchange, so this is just offered
as an observation.

Hi Mike,
I have searched and searched for an email I received asking if lab prints
were acceptable, and I can't find it. Was it from you? I will say yes,
please join in with us. I'm not aware that we've ever had lab prints before
but if it doesn't work for somebody to get in the darkroom, well, I just
don't see that as a reason to exclude.

Janet, count me in. Personally, I never go into the darkroom unless I'm
printing 30x40; but I will deign to make an exception. It sounds like loads
of fun. :) Mike Healy

The reason I suggested postcards is because there's no need for a large
envelope, gathering cardboard or whatever to protect the print, and the
greater postage. AND I sort of enjoy printing small, but that's just me.
And like has been stated, for people outside the US it can get pretty
pricey mailing large, so how about on this go if we do postcards… Unless
that means you have to go out and buy for the cards.
So I guess the question is really, do you guys have postcard paper for the
darkroom? If you don't, and if you don't want to buy it (because we know
that no darkroom paper is cheap!) Then we can just say print whatever size
you want. You guys who like to print large, are you going to feel slighted
if you receive a small print?
Any ideas for time allowed for a "mail it out by..." date? Let's see if
we can gather some more people to participate. I've never organized one of
these exchanges here so have mercy if I'm awkward, and if you've done it
before feel free to tell me a better way. If you email me your mailing
address I will compile a list to send back to each contributor. And what
else am I not thinking of?

I’d like to participate, but with smaller prints. Mailing out of Ireland
can be expensive.

I think that is individual judgement. I also like large prints but have
made lots of smaller ones that I thought were pleasing. By smaller I mean
5x7 maximum. Again, I think it depends on one's judgement and probably
subject. Some things must be large.

Janet, et al,
I'd prefer larger prints, because i've always thought that anything
smaller than 11 X 14 just isn't worth the trouble of
going into the darkroom. What do others think?

Gosh, it's been a long time since we've done a print
exchange! Is anybody up for another? It would be easier for
me if we could limit the number to 10. What do you think? Is
anyone willing to take it on? And I think doing a postcard
would simplify it, certainly would be easier to mail out. I'm
willing to do a larger print if that's what you all prefer.
Thoughts?
