Description:
Create three (3) altered postcards. In my opinion, altered means you start with a perfectly mailable postcard and add things to it - glue on images, rubber stamp on it, paint, draw, write - change it in some way. These can be souvenir-type PCs or advertisements or whatever. They should be able to travel through the postal service without things falling off of them or jamming up the machines, so glue images down tightly and don't put embellishments on that are too chunky. Sign-ups end on April 29, at which time Swap-bot will assign you three people to whom you send your postcards. Likewise, your name and address will be given to three players. Postcards should be mailed no later than May 15. I feel strongly about players honoring their commitments to these swaps, so please do not sign up unless you're sure you will be able to send your postcards on time.
