There are a lot of basic questions on Mail Art that are often asked and answered. This group might be the first place to look for answers. I will do my best to answer, but hope that other members can help out as well.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on September 19, 2022 at 6:33am: Ficus, I had a card about a month ago from D S Aponte from his usual address which I answered to that address, it has not come back and it is too early for David to answer. I will contact him in Instagram and let you know.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on September 19, 2022 at 6:27am: I have the same problem as KS I tried to upload a running horse and it uploaded as a climbing a wall horse! and also a colour picture uploaded with all the colours altered, solarized actually. Any ideas why?

It only happens in this site; IUOMA.

Comment by William M on September 19, 2022 at 6:02am: the last card i had from David had a New Jersey address so that's what i mailed him back to. i assume he's moved.

Comment by Ficus strangulensis on September 18, 2022 at 9:54pm: Is it true that David Stanley Aponte is mailarting from a new address in NJ?
