Please upload pictures of the tags you receive to the gallery - I'd love to see everyone's tags!!

I haven't participated in an altered tag swap for a while, so though I would start one myself!!

Send 3 altered tags to one partner. There is no theme, just have a look at your partner's interests and try to make tags your partner would like!

This is an international swap, open to newbies and anyone with a rating over over 4. I want everyone to play fair, so if you have any recent no-sends please contact me before joining up and I will decide.

Any questions, just ask!

what is a altered tag? Thank you for your time explaining to someone who has never heard of this.

jbtmykids 08/11/2007 #

Me too! What is an altered tag? Sounds kind of interesting!

fearfulpenguin 08/12/2007 #

Hi! I may have use the wrong terminology for it, I wasn't sure what to call them... they are just luggage label tags which have been decorated... similar to ATCs for slightly different size, etc!

I will upload some pictures into the gallery for this swap as examples. Hope that makes sense! Let me know if not. (Also, sorry for taking so long to answer, I didn't see these!)

This book may also give you more idea what I mean (there are examples on the front!)

It is called Let's Play Tag, and the ISBNs are below - look it up on Amazon for some examples! :)

ISBN-10: 1574865005

ISBN-13: 978-1574865004

Okay, I don't think you can upload to the gallery yet, so to see some tags I made (quite a few years ago, so be kind!) go to http://www.geocities.com/fearful_penguin/ and click on the "tags" link at the side.

There are a few with naked lady stamps on, so if you may be offended by that please bear that in mind! Thanks.

Okay, I've joined up! I'm going to give it a try! What the heck!:)

GoodVibrations 08/18/2007 #

instead of altering one, is it possible to create a tag?

fearfulpenguin 08/18/2007 #

Hi! Yes, it is fine to create your own tag too :)

shopandbid 08/19/2007 #

Is there a minimum size of tag?

user10328 08/20/2007 #

I just joined, this will be my first swap here. Sounds liek so much fun.

fearfulpenguin 08/21/2007 #

Hi Shopandbid, there is no minimun size as such, but they are usually around ATC size, maybe slightly smaller. Hope that helps!

mcall 08/23/2007 #

Yippee! I haven't altered a tag in a while either. I'm ready to tag it up :)

cbzcando 08/26/2007 #

Hi all - Sounds like fun. First attempt at tags for me but already swimming with ideas...Enjoy your day.

fearfulpenguin 08/27/2007 #

Okay, partners are assigned!!!!! Have fun with this, and don't forget to communicate to your partners if you are having trouble with anything.

Enjoy!
