Online influencer and promoter (that involves e-learning, too, in a fascinating way).
I try to do that with philately, and especially with maximaphily. :)
Be the blue fish, in your School of Thought.
Find good places and times for action, and good places to relax/ chillax.
Then others will follow, for their own benefit.
Alpha male, alpha female...it's a natural thing.
These wolf maximum cards/ maxicards/ dorincards will probably remain the last batch that I have ever sent for postmarking, without scratching the plastic-coated zazzle stamps.
The stamps may appear to be affixed OVER the postmarks, but in fact the "not superior"-quality ink (unlike StazOn ink) was not absorbed by the plastic coating of the zazzle stamps.
In subsequent batches, I carefully scratched the zazzle stamps with hard dishpad, where the postmark was supposed to come and the ink to be absorbed satisfactory enough.
Whose [not who's] fault is it that the postmark was applied upside-down?
"I don't care - I just work here, in the Post Office" - was that the line of thinking?
Aw, come on! Considerate thinking goes a long way...
Don't just postmark absent-mindedly, people!
The absence of the mind is a terrible thing...:)
1) I could postcardize these anytime by cutting them in two; the image below is from before I sent it for postmarking:
2) Or, I can glue the two parts of the folded card to qualify it as a "postcard".
3) Or, I could unfold the folded card and stiffen it with one or several large mailing label(s), creating a non-folded big postcard.
I could even send it then by mail, for USPS to validate it as a "real postcard", really circulated by mail to whatever destination in the world I chose, including the Amundsen-Scott Base in Antarctica! :)
At this point, all I would need for international mailing is to affix 98 cents worth of stamps on the address side (the back side of what you see here with my zazzle stamp).
