When I had seeds to trade, I posted on the Seed Exchange forum. I made sure my trade list was up-to-date. If someone was interested in trading with me, they contacted me via email. As with other gardening objectives, it makes sense to define your goals--decide how you want to trade (i, e, postage, address labels, envelopes) and put that out there on GW. List the seeds you have to trade on your trade list, then post what seed types you've got available on the Seed Exchange forum. I "shopped" for seeds on the Seed Exchange forum a couple of years until I filled my garden beds. I kept the seed exchange information (i.e., names & addresses of folks with whom I traded) on an Excel spreadsheet so I'd have it for future reference. Common sense rule of thumb is be sure you get return postage prior to mailing seeds.

He's hinting. You have to want to see it enough to search it out. I did. Personally I don't care about it one way or the other and wasn't all offended by the last one Faron posted the way many here were - but that's me. This one doesn't offend me either but it is geared to a specific audience and I don't think we (as in GW decorating women) are it!

It doesn't sound dumb at all. You have to upload your photos to an image hosting site. Then copy and paste the address in your message. Try doing a websearch for free Image hosting. I use various ones time to time and use webshots which is a pay service for hosting whole albums. Have been using free "Tinypic" lately for the occasional photo to upload It is easy to use. Also you may have to resize them first if they are too large. I use Adobe Photoshop or Paintshop to resize the pictures. There are a number of products out there for resizing/editing and some hosting sites can do it for you. For example: To use Tinypic for posting pics 1.Click on "Browse." A window will open to look for your photos on your computer. 2.Find the folder/area where you have your photo stored on your computer. 3. Click on photo to select. 4. Click on "open" in the choose file window. 5. Click on "Upload Image." 6 Right click Highlight and Copy the address in the first window shown under the following wording: "Embed HTML: for MySpace, eBay, blogs" 7 Paste the address in your message on this forum. :) Here is a link that might be useful: Image Hosting Site

Made me laugh, too. I'm surprised he could keep a fairly straight face. Of course, we're probably seeing take #48.
