@Awed_Job that sounds like it's gonna be expensive

@NutellaCoffee just 28¢ for postage or less if I buy in bulk and use electronic postage. Worth it as far as I'm concerned.

@Awed_Job -- Awedsome! Here... I submit myself on camelback, looking as regal as I can, under the circumstances.

We found a sealed, unstamped envelope on the ground in NYC this week. It was addressed to someone in New Zealand, and had a return address (same last name as the addressee). Holding it up, backlit by the sun, we could see that it contained only a check.

We took it home, and (the web being what it is) found out how much postage it needed, so we could drop it in a mailbox. The web being what it is again, were able to find and call the sender. He was about to cancel the check, because he couldn't find that envelope when he arrived at the post office. Check to his mum on its way, cheers all around.

Hope things like this happen with your postcards. They should -- postage is already provided!

@Awed_Job , well, the thingy is I am not too keen on having my face just a bit everywhere, it took me long enough already to settle on dB with that.

Now if you tell me it's a mix big enough so that it's just a bunch of small head all mixed up next to each other, I may, lost in the crowd on the photo, I guess it won't be much of a bother :)

I can do that no problem. I have a couple of friends that can do that. In general though people in the island are not keen on paper mail, so I would stick to buddies.

And see if that pix is good enough... :)

@Awed_Job -- Are these 233px images big enough for your needs? Do you need a larger version of the images?

@CherriB -- Thanks. You're right, of course. There's a bit of a kick in doing that.

BTW, a weird thing about it is that we are going to NZ for the first time in March, and about five seconds before we saw the envelope (which was face-down), I had said something like "I'm so excited that we're going to New Zealand!"

It does appear that it is @jimbonius I used the selective blur filter in Gimp after up-rezing them to 150 dpi. the first batch is in b&w cuz that's what I have on hand atm. I'm all set to place them out in the world.

Thank you to everyone who has added a pic. I will be diligently creating your postcards tonight and perhaps posting the final product on this thread. Tomorrow I will place them around the Twin Cities.

Soon I will produce color postcards. The important step was to get this project from zero to one a.s.a.p.

Whoever is interested in receiving a drop shipment of postcards message me your details. You can always use a work address or specify "General Delivery" if you don't want me sending it directly to you.

@CherriB Double Rainbow!! All the way!!!

@Bamboomonkey Such a happy picture. Message me so I can send you some postcards.

@danigorawr Boom! I'm making you into a postcard. Bam!

@Lonchavic Yes. Yes you can. And you WILL be a postcard.

@Catrific Rawr!

@RobHand51 it's Rob. And his, hands.

@Mektonic thumbs up

@hiyabuddy well, hiya buddy

@SheldonConlan ohai

@schnuggelsche "I take your picture"

@anaGuzhova lovely sunset

@marlenusa peace

@Tamwise Arms wide open. Thank you for your offer. Message me an address where I may drop-ship you some postcards.

@paigegoestocollege that image makes me smile too. Any idea who created it so I can attribute it properly? If not, no worries.

@BadaBingItsBen Thanks. We'll see how it goes.

@Dracula dunno what they will think. Maybe they will write it down on the card.

@Awed_Job -- Now that's got to get *someone's* attention! Wait... am I just hanging out in a men's room somewhere in Minneapolis?

Is there any suggestion to them that they fill the blank area to the left of the address with something, or are we just *hoping* they will?

It's odd to think that this image of me on camelback may already be in somebody's possession... or in a mailbox!

Such a fun project! It's like a very personalized "Where's George?"

For anyone interested in receiving a drop shipment here's some general information:
When you receive the drop shipment, find out how much it costs to send the postcards air-mail to the U.S. I'll send you the money and then you buy the stamps, put them on the cards and leave the cards for people to find.
