Description:

I've been waffling on this theme for a time, and I've read the F.A.Q. page. This may not be one of my better ideas, but I don't see it stating that it's not allowed and we are all adults here, right? So.... here goes.

I can't be the only person who enjoys nude art and vintage nudes. I've seen many mention in comments that they like getting ATCs of that nature. If you join this swap, please be aware that you will be receiving three cards that could be considered offensive by some. By joining, you are okay with it, seemingly, because you did click "join here". I do make a distinction between art and porn, however. For this swap, please think more Picasso and Toygun Orbay and Yoes Rizal and less John Holmes. I'm talking about art here. Not acts, not animals, nothing illegal, etc etc. Please focus on the art aspect. Having said that (over and over) - I know that some people's trash is other people's treasure, and I cannot even begin to say that you won't get something that you don't see as 'art' yet your partner does. Just think more abstract, softer, vintage, sensual, you get the idea. I hope.

~ Three partners, three cards. One card to each.

~ This is an international swap. Newbies are welcome to play.

~ The theme is vintage nudes/nude art. However, any exposed skin can be nude. It doesn't necessarily have to involve the 'naughty bits' graphically. I have seen some incredible cards with legs and high heels.

Typical ATC rules apply: Your cards must be 3.5"x2.5". Your cards must be flat enough to fit into a sleeve if your partner chooses to put them there. Your cards must be sturdy enough to qualify as cards.

I will drop anyone that has a rating of less than 3.0 and/or more than two no-sends. Everyone deserves to receive something. Please keep up your end so nobody has a bad experience. Newbies are welcome to play. Thanks.

For this swap, especially. If there is anything you absolutely do not wish to receive because it is offensive under any context (though if you feel the need to put several paragraphs here for this, please don't sign up) please mention it in the comments. Also, be aware that just because you mention it doesn't mean that you will avoid everything you wish.

I would be more comfortable with this swap being private. If it goes well and there is interest (and I don't get flamed off swap-bot for hosting it), I will be doing this again in about a month. If you are interested and would like to be notified of the second round, email me or mention it in the comments. :o)

i have to say i love the idea. i draw, is it okay to use my on art in the act, or are you gearing towards know pieces of art?

missnatalie 12/ 7/2006 #

I have no problem with any form of art, be it drawing or watercolor or cut&paste, or whatever a person does. I just mentioned Picasso and others to give more of an idea of where on the "naughty" spectrum I'd like this swap to rest. More of a erotic, sensual nature rather than XXX [unless it's Vin Diesel snicker], ya know? ;-) I don't want to get flamed off swap-bot for porn or something. laugh

so it can either vintage nudes or just nudes in general? i do these as decos myself in the penpalling world..and love doing them because i dotn see nudity as vulgar. im ight sign up...if i can find some tasteful nudes...

How refreshing....let's celebrate the human form!

missnatalie 12/ 7/2006 #

Vintage or nudes in general. Just artful nudes. Which is vague, I know, but one person's art is ... you know.

:o)

thanks for clearing that up for me

wondering where it says "anyone with less than three ratings will be dropped" versus the "newbies welcome" posting......... I just signed up to Swap today so have no ratings yet, but would like to participate here for this one as wellas a couple mix cd's I am in now............ let me know... Thanks! Doug.

Anyone with a rating of less than 3.0. Newbies are welcome. :)

I think this swap is a great idea and I know what I'll be using for it-tastful art work! However my husband is convinced I'm swapping porn with other women!

I did a swap like this with another person a little while ago. We were the only 2 people to sign up for it! I'm glad more people are signing up for this one! I like nudes in art and think this will be fun!

ktsmurf 12/28/2006 #

I'd definitely do this one again, so please email me if you do another!

I've set up another one to be mailed in time for Valentine's day. I hope everyone enjoyed this one and signed up for the next.

I was wondering, though - having done this one, would you rather there be more cards and/or more partners? Thoughts?

And my cards are ready to go out. :)

i personally like the idea of multiple partners(that sounds funny) but don't mind doing 2 or even three different cards for each of those partners. it is nice to get a variety of cards.
