Black and White PC

darn. I dont have or dont know where to find b&w postcards.. I have a 95% b&w postcard with a spash of color in the middle , but I dont think that'd work for this...

would it? If it would. sign me up! lol

You know you can take any photo and make it b&w! Then you can round the corners and send it as is or mount it on card stock. Voilà you have your pc for this swap

smart girl that Kelkat60 :)

What about non-photographic posties, as in B&W illustrations or images of a non-photographic nature?

The only thing I ask is that the image on front be all black and white and gray. But yes, you can create anything you want using that limit. There are a couple of good ideas above. Show off your artwork or a photo.

Here's my list of on-line sources which I've learned through swaps:

The Film Store: http://www.thefilmstore.com/All_Postcards.html Beautiful quality, and a really nice person offered to refund me half the postage when I overcalculated it. I didn't even realise or ask. I loved their honesty! One tip: Buy multiples of the ones you like because the ones I only bought singles of I can't bear to part with. :)

Art Unlimited: http://www.artunlimited.com/homepage.do A spotlight on past children's illustrators atm. Dick Bruna et al. Awesome!

Gorey Details: http://goreydetails.net/search.php?category=all&cojoined=postcard Edward Gorey and many more likeminded artists. A UK site with the option of seeing USD as well.

Pomegranate: http://pomegranate.stores.yahoo.net/postcards1.html Great range of great artists. They have a bulk pack of 100 for $14.95 or 200 for $24.95

The 2 Buds Vintage Postcard Shop: http://www.the2buds.com/suph2pc.htm Every geeky thing a postcard enthusiast could want. Turn your photographic prints into postcards! Protect your favourite postcards in crystal clear plastic sleeves! Purchase Vintage state postcards! Rigid postcard mailers for multiple-postcard swaps on swap-bot! Organise!

chroniclebooks.com is a great one too!

Here are some on-line sources for buying different kinds of postcards. Zazzle www.zazzle.com/postcards

VisionWorks www.changingworld.com/catalog/index.php

Hey @AndreaJ them's my words! Glad you found them handy. (I hoped they'd help.) :D I'm gonna have to pass on this swap as I'm out of B&Ws, I think... Hope there'll be more.

Thank you, Papercaper! I couldn't remember where I got all those, but I've added the info to all my source lists for swaps I'm in. If you find any more let me know.

Yay! I'm so glad to see so many signed up. I'll check ratings and assign partners tomorrow.
