Description:

Let's do a swap and post it on Facebook in lieu of mailing it! You get to keep the artwork, and still participate in the swap!

I'm making this a Type 3 swap because it involves "time-intensive crafts", even if it doesn't involve sending things in the mail.

The Facebook group is here:
Prairie Kittin's Facebook swaps

Here's what to do:
1. Join the Facebook group. (It's a public group)
2. Create the swap.
3. Take a picture of it and post it to the Facebook group. (Please include your Swap-bot ID, so your partner can find your picture)
4. Put your picture in Album #2
5. Go to the group and find your partner's picture.
6. Rate your partner a 5 if they posted a picture of their swap by the due date. (As always, hearts are optional).

Swap #2:
Create a picture of a fish. It can be any style you want. My favorite style is cartoon/doodle/zentangle, so I will be creating my fish in that style. You create in whatever style or medium you want.

You can post your picture as soon as you would like, even before partners are assigned.

You will have 5 'partners', but you only have to create one piece of art and post it to Facebook. Please rate all 5 of your partners here on swap-bot. Give them a 5 if they posted a picture. Hearts, as always, are optional. Comments on Facebook are optional also, but nice.

Have fun!

PS.. Because this is a Facebook swap, I'm not going to require a ratings limit, and it will be open to all. If you are flaked on, you will still get a '5' rating, and the flaker will be rated a 1. Nothing is sent by snail mail, so nothing will be lost.

Just sent a request to join on FB - sounds fun.

How will you know if it's original or just a repost of someone else's art? Seems like an easy way to inflate ratings.

Why would you post someone else's artwork? First of all, it is illegal. And anything of yours that YOU post is automatically copyrighted to you. You cannot violate copyright laws by claiming someone else's intellectual property! And you should be proud of your own work. This is an art community, and if someone is here only to get ratings they are probably in the wrong place.

I was in an ATC swap once, when someone took someone else's ATC, put their name on it and sent it as their own work. Dishonest people are everywhere. If you suspect the artwork to belong to someone else, do a Google image search for it and see what comes up. If the artwork is someone else's, rate that person a "1" and explain why. @OrigamiGrace

I’m very sorry but I can’t participate in this swap and will have to be rated down. I am not going on FB for my mental health and didn’t realize how bad off I was until I went to try and do this swap. My sincerest apologies. I just cannot go into FB. I’m happy to post somewhere else, but I know that’s not the point of this swap.
