Can't decide where to put this thread, so I'm making a blind guess and hoping this is the right place.

I made some badges (to go in the signatures) for people who participate in the ink, postcard and letter exchanges/swaps. Hope you guys like them.

Maybe I should break this up and stick them in their respective threads?

Thank you so very much!

I did my letter exchange one with a link to the snail mail topic, but sadly I didn't have enough characters left in my signature to do the same with the postcard one.

This is a very cute idea - I actually searched the forum to find this topic, once I saw a few of these floating around for folks. I love the snail mail logo.

 

When I first saw it, though, I thought the people brandishing it were members of "The Letter Exchange," an actual publication and service that's been around for quite some time.

 

http://www.letter-exchange.com/

 

Edit: that won't stop me from adding it to my own signature, since I'm a member in both places anyway. ;)

Ooh, someone stop me before I say something offensive!

 

This looks like such fun. I can think of a bunch of other exchanges we could get going here, based on recent Chatter threads...

I was wondering where folks were getting these! Nice idea!

 

 

I'm at capacity; otherwise, I'd use the postcard badge.

 

 

Cool'a you, eilu!

I mean no criticism of eilu great work, nor the other folks organizing these but what do you think about something a little more streamlined? The vertical height doubles the length of most posts, whereas something a bit stouter wouldn't break up text as much.

 

There, I've said it- and I'll leave it at that for fear of a mauling. :) Thanks again eilu- they look great!

Say can eilu make up a "mitten exchange" logo for us freezing northerners?

Very nice! I'll definitely put a couple of these to use, once I've assuaged my guilty conscience by catching up on my correspondence. Thanks! :)

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
