http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmJuly 17, 2010 at 1:57 pm #821403Letβs do a MUSE PYO swap!
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU SIGN UP! Itβs long, but pretty much exhaustive.
We donβt have a βdue dateβ, but a βship dateβ, meaning everyone will be mailing their painted piece on this date. Yes, weβll have a whole bunch of pictures coming up all at once, but this will avoid people falling short (itβs happened in the past).
The ship date is September 13.
Prior to this date, so on September 6, Drag0nfeathers will send out a message to everyone, asking if the piece is ready. You will need to respond to her, with a picture of your piece, before September 9. If you do not send a response by that date, you will be considered out of the swap. In all, thatβll be 6 weeks to paint your piece. Iβm thinking that since the Muse is the smallest of the PYOs, it *should* be quicker to paint, βshouldβ being the key word here.
Once the response is received, you will be sent the address of the person for whom you painted. Thatβs right! Once the names are picked out of the hat, at first, you will only get the name and color scheme of your swapee. That way, no one will mail out ahead of time and create confusion.
If people do not respond, weβll reshuffle β hence the picture of the piece. Weβll match the existing pieces as best as we can. Hopefully, we wonβt need to do it at all.
TO SIGN UP: you need to email Drag0nfeathers at:
drag0nfeathers (at) comcast (dot) net
No PMs, please. It will make things much easier to manage. She will confirm that she got the email as soon as she can.The sign-up is open from July 17 to July 30. On the 31st, sheβll be draw the names and email them to you.
Make sure your forum name is the first thing in the subject line.
Example: Dragonmedley β PYO swap/Sign me up/etc.We will need the following information:
1. Your full name and address
2. Indicate if you will ship worldwide. We have members in the US, Canada, Switzerland, Finland, Iceland, UKβ¦
3. In this case, only Muses will be part of this (of course), so you can indicate if you want a particular theme or colors. Keep in mind that stuff like koi/tiger and anything very definite like that may not work on these little guys. You donβt have to include something to put in the beak, but you can if you want β no obligation there. Do include the Dixie cup, though β if they still come with the Muse (itβs been a while since Iβve ordered one).A few more rules to remember:
β’ You are responsible for buying a blank Muse and mailing it. In return, you will receive a painted piece.
β’ The person for whom youβre painting will more than likely not be painting for you. This in not an outright trade, but more like
a βsecret Santaβ exchange.
β’ If youβre shipping outside your country, make the value 10$; otherwise, the person will probably have to pay duties, even if you
indicate that the package is a gift.
β’ Donβt ask to have so-and-so paint your piece! This will be totally random: what comes out of the hat is it.
β’ It may be redundant, but make sure you double-box the piece when you send it.
β’ Donβt forget to sign the felt pad (inasmuch as you can on this particular one)!
β’ Last but not least, do not post pictures, not even in your gallery, before the person gets the piece. When you receive your piece, please acknowledge it right away in the thread (Iβll create one separately from the sign-up thread). If you can, post pictures. If you canβt, mention it, and the person who painted it will more than probably be happy to post pictures.Let’s get to it!

PSH! Your boyos should be in it! I think just about any one here would be honored to have a muse painted by the famous twin dragons!

Yes, he should, since he’s a participant. He’d paint one and so would you, right? So you’d each get one. Tell ’em to send that email!
