Hi TheMailman :D

Regardless of whether the SFM forum is closed or not, it won't make a difference to SFM. We only provide a list of addresses for photos of celebrities, and it is up to the individual to decide whether to send a request for one or not.

Additionally, by closing down the SFM forum you won't be doing anything to the actual SFM company. They'll still be operating as normal, sending out many photos at a time. This isn't the only site where SFM addresses are listed, so I'm pretty sure that members can and will be able to find these addresses somewhere else.

Even if the SFM company did shut down, if you wanted a photo from a celebrity affiliated with SFM, you would have to WRITE to them via their agent or other address. SFM allows you to email a request to a celebrity, whereas you may have to send a request via snail mail to their agent. As such, [u]wouldn't you be wasting even more trees this way[/u]?

Plus, by closing the SFM forum down, any SFM successes will have to be posted in the Feedback forum, which will clutter it up. That is why the SFM forum was created in the first place, to differentiate between SFM and regular TTM successes.

Just my opinion.

ANything the Mailman has to say, I am against..

like Paul and WeeMan said, I think we should leave it. They may be pre prints, but to some collectors anything is fine, even if it isn't real. If it was closed all the SFM feedback would just clutter up the feedback forum. I can see how reading the same feedback can get old but that way you can also tell if they have a new picture.

The SFM forum should stay, without a doubt. If you know a celeb is going to send out an SFM pre print TTM or Via Venue, then a new collector could save their money and get it from SFM via email for free.

I actually quite like SFM because you get really nice glossy photos of celebs you like, for absolutely free. I know people could abuse this system of getting a free pre printed signed photo, but your gonna get that with everything that comes for free.

Paul :D

I don't think it is a good idea... There are many newbies here, that want to start their own collection... And SFM, PP or not, is very helpful... Plus, many people are huge fans of some celebs, that ARE NEVER SENDING ANYTHING BY THEMSELVES so SFM is their only chance to get something from their favourite stars...

It shouldn't be closed, never, ever.
