John,
I think that's a great idea.

I'm a young pup regards the list, I joined late 2004 and lurked for
a while.
Maybe we could set up a flickr type gallery. Maybe willing list
members
could put up one image and a short bio. It would be good to see
what work
list members are creating and would be good promotion for alt
photography. I
would be happy to administer it.
John.

That's really neat - thanks Greg.
I think I joined in 1995 or 1996 - I do remember that unsw email

(University of New South Wales - which is in Sydney, Australia).
How can we celebrate?

alt-photo-process is a mailing list for the discussion of
alternative photographic processes. Alternative photographic
processes traditionally have been those that do not use the
main
stream silver gelatin process, ie the printing paper that you
buy at the photo shop. Gum Bichromate, Platinum, Carbon Dye
Transfer, Cyanotype, Photogravure, Kallitype, Vandyke Brown,
Color Xerox, are some processes that are currently thought
of as
alternative processes.
The group should be free to talk on any unconventional
photographic process or modification to the standard silver
gelatin process. Photographers that embark on alternative
processes usually have a "Do It Yourself" attitude. This
discussion group caters to that interest.
If you wish to join this mailing list, send the message
SUB ALT-PHOTO-PROCESS Your Name
where "Your Name" is your preferred name, to the list
processor
at listproc@vast.unsw.edu.au, and it will subscribe you and
send
you further information on the group (like how to post
messages
and use the listproc).
