Number of people in swap:21

Last day to signup/drop:August 7, 2009
Date items must be sent by:August 21, 2009
Number of swap partners:10
Description:

For this swap, on the day partners are assigned, a list of 10 items to hunt for on the internet will be posted to the swap thread. For example, one item might be: Find a panda theme toy or game. You would post a link to a site that has a panda theme toy or game, or copy/paste a photo of the item into your email. You can be creative, as long as the link or item generally fits. You could post a photo of someone playing a game dressed as a panda, or a picture of pandas at the zoo playing with a ball, you could post an amazon link to a boardgame about pandas, a photo of a stuffed panda......make it fun and creative. Links to video on youtube, amazon.com links, funny photos, mp3s, jokes, sound bites -- it's all good. Whatever you can weasel off the internet to fit each item is peachy keen -- have fun with it!!

I'm going to set the partners at 10....if fewer sign up, then of course you would send to fewer people than that. If more sign up, I might increase the # of partners so that we can all see more of the creative things you come up with to share. After all, it only takes copy/pasting a few more email addresses to send to more people. :o)

Newbies and those trying to improve their ratings are welcome -- but PLEASE don't join if you aren't 100% sure you can send out your emails. It's really lame to flake on an email swap!!

This swap is meant to be fun, zany, creative and just an overall good time -- allow your partners a bit of wiggle room to get silly. And, be prepared to be creatively strange --- take your time in finding your solution each item. Don't just throw together something in 5 minutes and send it out --- take your time and scavenge up just the right item/link for each thing.

If this turns out to be a popular swap, I will gladly post another round when this one is done.

Ravensboo has messaged me to let me know that she will be sending late due to a family emergency. She will send out her emails to everyone when she's back home again.
