Hi
I hope im postin in the right spot if im not please let me know and i will gladly change it . Im new here ( like 5 minutes). I wanted some help because im getting conflicting suggestions. First of all Im in Canada and I want to get as many autographs from teh Twilight stars as possible. Of course mainly Rob Pattinson and my 2nd favourite Ashley Greene.


What are the steps I need to follow. I tried lookin in the board history and i just got more confused.
This is what i have:
addresses with the exception of peter facinelli ( i know this not where I am suppose to request addresses but Im not requesting addresses at this time)
cue cards

Questions:
1) I have brown envelopes i would say that they are 8'11 you can fit a standard letter size sheet of paper in there without folding it. Is this too big? any suggestions on smaller sizes I mean I dont want the picture to come back bent and folded up . I was using this as both my sent envelope and the SASE but I think im going to be spending a lot in postage.

2) FOr the SASE do i use IRC;s or can i not purchase stamps that belong to the country i am mailing to
3) Do i need to include a picture this is the biggest thing i am having an issue with ideally i would like the picture to be of the actor portraying his/her character in twilight, so does this mean that I should include my own photo? and if I rip it out of a magazine is that too big?
Can you think of anything else i need to know?
THanks so much for your kind help.

Yes, an envelope that size would be great, people send enevelope any size from standard business envelopes, to huge 10x13---an 9x12 or 8x11 would be great.

Yep, just include a couple of those in your request.

3) Do i need to include a picture this is the biggest thing i am having an issue with ideally i would like the picture to be of the actor portraying his/her character in twilight, so does this mean that I should include my own photo? and if I rip it out of a magazine is that too big?
Some stars will have their own photos (like RObert Pattinson) so you might just want to include an index card, or request a signed photo. If you want a picture of Robert as Edward, then I would suggest you send your own, also a magazine photo would be good, it wouldnt be too big.

Check out the stickies in this forum, they have a LOT about autograph collecting or just send a PM to one of the Mods and they'd be glad to help you out. {thumb2}
