Hi, so this is just a suggestion. I'm new here, and I dunno if I should be doing this but... ohwell.

Okay, so I, personally, find it really difficult to procure nice, high-quality pictures to be autographed. I know that some celebrities will send you back an autograph with a picture regardless of whether or not you send one, and then other celebrities will only sign their own pictures.

Maybe it would help a lot of people if we could put together a list of celebs we know will send you an autograph regardless of whether or not you send them a photo? Or put a notice on their address page or something? I know lots of people would appreciate it.

Also - chances are, I'm missing something. Any 'I've-been-in-the-business-for-a-while' tips on how to get good pictures of signing?

Thanks!

Personally I think its too much effort the the end result. Too many people would just take advantage of the celeb's generosity if we made a list anyway in my opinion.

Best thing to do is check recent feedback of a celeb you're planning to send to, and see if they supplied their own pic.

Oh, and welcome!

Thanks for your thoughts!

However, would it really be so much work? Just sticky a topic, and anyone who's sent a pictureless letter and gotten an autograph back could post what celebrity they got it from and it would go relatively smoothly, but I see what you mean.

Alos, about taking advantage - you're definitely right there, although I'm sure it's easier for the celebrities to get nice pictures of themselves then for us to get nice pictures of them. =)

It wouldn't be a lot of work, but the abuse factor comes into play. True, the celeb will have easy access to better photos that we can send but if we post a huge list of stars that will provide their own pic, then people would start writing to them for the sole purpose of a free autograph.

I've been sending out, cards for celebs to sign. I know some dont like signing cards.
But a lot do. At least it's not them, to come up with something all the time.

It kinda, makes their load a little lighter, and they will be more likely to sign agian. {thumb2}

But all the best. I hope you get loads of great replys

You are totally right, rpbluesman. I've found a way around it. =)

And thanks for your thoughts, atomic ant - this definitely helps. =)
