If I don't send a photo how much would that hinder me from receiving a reply? Because my mom doesn't want me printing out pics of the celebrity so... if I told them how I'm sorry I couldn't send a photo but I would love an autograph....

Hi Skye :D ,

In my opinion sending pictures generally doesn't increase or decrease your chances of receiving an autograph. {thumb2}

An exception would be the celebrities that don't send pictures, very few.
Best thing to do when deciding to send a picture or not (well, what I do :lol: .)
Check before you send, in their feedback, if everyone sent a picture.

The majority of celebrities have their own pictures to send. I have never actually received a picture back signed to a celebrity I have sent one to. If you can't print pictures then just send an index card for them to sign just in case they can't provide a picture.

It depends on the celeb. Some only sign if you send something, otherwise you'll get a PP. If you send VV you should send a pic as they likely wont have one. For the most part celebs have their own pics, but its worth checking previous feedbacks before sending to make sure.

Ok thanks. I don't think I will be able to get any photos to send since my mom doesn't approve of it.

Hi Skye! ;-)

So far I have only sent photos to via venue requests and Mark Wahlberg, as he's one of the rare celebrities who only signs photos sent to him. {thumb2} I have never had any problems receiving replies whatsoever. :) I actually prefer the photos the celebrity sends out, as I'm always looking forward to what the photo would look like. :D As previous posts said, just make sure which of your favourite celebrities supply their own photos, otherwise, just send an index card. {up}

Good luck,
zanne

Another thing you can do Skye is, To include a colored index card with each request. That way in case the celeb doesn't have a photo to send you, they can still sign the IC. :D And IC's are WAY cheap. A pack of 100 3x5's cost like $2.00. So yeah, there's another idea for ya! :D
