Neato bandito! Glad I filled out my profile the way I did, lol

can't wait and a whole month

Wow! I can't believe how many people have signed up - it must be us keeping the post office in business. Out of interest, is there is a maximum spend? Just a ball-park figure.

I'm excited for participate, i can't wait.

Okay, I know this is a really newbie question, but this swap IS newbie-friendly! So--how do you determine who your partner is? Thank you!

Never mind! I just received the email embarrassed grin.

This should be fun! I love swapping, yay!

It's interesting. I'm a newbie, I'd like to attept

I'm brand new to this. How do I fill out a profile?

cool! I'm new in most part by not letting you be new ... but if you do not participate ... as you will have a ranking?

I love to participate! I'm excited!

ah! how it is to fill out a profile?

thanks

hi newbies,

best to post questions on the forum (see top right of the page). however here are some answers to your questions:

you fill out your profile by clicking 'profile' (top left of page under swap-bot logo) and then press 'edit profile' OR just hover your mouse over the word 'profile' and the option 'edit profile' will show up.

the rating is your feedback score. after each swap you complete, your partner that you have sent to rates you upon receiving the package. so 5 is best & met the requirements (a heart for extra effort) and 3 for if the package arrived but did not meet the posted swap requirements and 1 for nothing received.

good luck newbies and welcome to swap-bot! :)

id like to do this

Hey everyone! Sorry for the newbie question, but how do we get assigned a partner? This will be my first swap.

Can't wait to see what the results will be. This is my first swap, I love things like this!

This is my first real swap as well.. and cannot wait..... this is going to be fun....

Thanks for the newb-friendly swap. Sounds simple and fun. Can't wait to see the results!

Ready to get my partner and then the hunt is on to get something she really likes. I love it. hmm maybe i need to make sure my profile has everything i like on it right? :D

Love this swap...must be fun:-)...and I love surprises!

x sihu (yet another aussie [waves to clare] )

Hi! This is going to be my first swap... I'm just hopping this turns ok...

waves to all the aussies in this swap , as i'm a aussie too and cant wait to see who my partner is and to look at her profile and then send 10 things she likes .

Thank you for opening this swap up to newbies; I've just signed up to keep my mind alive while recovering from surgery. Whomever partners me, I look forward to whatever you send!

I'm in --I love surprise items. It makes the excitement that much more.

OK, This is my first, I love surprises. Can't wait.

I'm in too, sounds like fun!

I'm fairly new, but I really CAN'T BELIEVE how many people have signed up for this swap! How do you do it, "LiveTheChaos"?! Do you need any help?

Sounds GREAT!! This is my first swap.. nice to meet u all.

Love this! Can't wait for it =D

Haha, well there's not a whole lot of difference for me between this swap and one with ten people, other than the fact that I need to find several people that would be willing to angel in the event of flaky swappers...

This seems very interesting. My friend told me about this!

Woo Hoo! Surprises! :D

This seems great I have a at least ten items to swap from card making to jewellery, I would liek to be included in this swap

This seems like a lot of fun. Thanks for letting us newbies in!

Looking forward to this swap. I will be fun and interesting for us newbies. I agree with ohiowiner how do you do. I also see your message (live the chaos) that you need to find people that are willing to angel for swapper. Tell me more regarding that.

Hi! Great swap. I'm a card-making scrapbooker this will be my first swap here. I am a hostess in Y group, glad I found this site!

The parcel is packed ready to go im waiting for the name of the person to send it too.

I hope I'm not too late!! (as here it is already the 25th..)

I would love to join this! and i hope im not too late either, its the 24th.

Oh, and when would we know who our partners is? (:

How can people already have the parcel packed and ready to go if they don't know who their swap partner is? I worried people will send what they have laying around instead of getting something specifically for their partner...

This sounds fun. I can't wait to see who my partner is.

If you need an angel for this swap, let me know. I'll be glad to help out.

I am signing up at the nick of time, but still happy about this!!! :)

I'm already packed too! I want my partner! I'll be an Angel! I had stuff lying around but it's GOOD stuff. I'm afraid the collective price is well over $5. Sorry!

I am a newbie...How long does it take to get assigned names?

was wondering when partners will be asighned as i am ready too i just need my partner .

I am sorry I won't be able to participate! :(

c'mon! i want to send this package off!

People already have the parcel packed without looking at their partner's alergy/dislikes.......It look strange to me........

While I understand that it seems weird to have a package ready to send out without looking at the person's profile, the host does have this in the swap information: "You can look through their profile if you want, [OR you can just send 10 things that you pick out.]"

Well.........I'm so lucky I did not prepare anything in advance.....My partner is a man...and It would be so funny to send him earings, pink flowers, and so on........

Ha... chincho has a good point there. =)

I have prepared another parcel after looking at my partners profile, my stuff is about €5 I hope my partner like is.

I got the partner and read the profile-excited about the swap!!

Thats only 9 days. boohoo I wanna partner today. LOL

ut oh wrong swap...I'm so confused

My last surprise swap I got total junk-all went straight into the trash. Hope this one turns out better!!!

Hi, i tryed to add a photo, I couldn't and I don't know why... Can anyone help me?

Thank you!

My partner's profile is soooo"meager".......and he is a man......I realy do not know what to send..........

Thank one is hard...

wow i wish the send by date was not so far away. i am excited for feb 24. to come!

I stent my package last week. The girl shhould get it till the end of this week =)

A box of surprises is on the way to my partner. Enjoy!

Im on my way to prepare the presents for my partner. Hope she will like it ... +)

I've sent my package to my partner, CJ, in the Philippines, so look for it soon sweetie!!;cD

Sent my package to SkullNBowGirl last week. Hope it gets to the US soon.

Just sent my package off to the US. Hope it arrives safe and sound and is enjoyed.

Can't wait it to get mine now!!

:0)

Wow, it just cost me $26 to send my package to Canada. That's the last one of these I'll be doing.

I hear ya - I had fun getting the package together but it cost me $20 to send to the US - from Canada. A little too pricey for me. Love the idea though

i must have gotten lucky it only costed my roughly 8.00 to send. shame yours were so expensive to ship.

My package is out! I hope you like everything!

My package went yesterday!

I sent my package out yesterday. Sorry I wasn't able to log in due to work and school. :o)

Received the most awesome package from cherryred today. I love everything she sent!

Michelle, thank you so much for the most amazing package! I have never had such a wonderful package sent to me, thank you so so so much! <3

Am resending my package for a 3rd time to my partner tomorrow. This time will go with DC--the 2nd should have but my husband took it to the PO for me and didnt get DC...Sooooo, I am resending tomorrow (would've gone out this weekend but I was sick as a dog!!) and will post the DC to my partner, the host and here...Thanks!

I just received my gifts today... I really LOVE and ENJOY the gifts so much !! Thanks Janet (Calcitrix). Best wishes to you.
