If you can take digital pictures and email, others can post for you.  If you can't take digital pictures at all, then I think you should still sign up.  It's the bow that matters in the end, I'm sure that the recipient of your bow can post pictures when received and the bowyer can post some before sending to cover you.  

If the group can come together to fund shipping a bow from Turkey, then they'll find a way to work with you.

Well said! This is an opportunity you will be kicking yourself for a year if you skip. I am sure you know someone with a smartphoneor a camera that will take some pictures for you and send them to one of us or post them for you.

This is old school but you can use a regular camera and ask for a cd when you get the pictures devoloped. Then give them to someone else to post or email "or" PM me and I'll send you my address mail your cd to me and I'll get them to Ralph...

Where there is a will there is a way   :)

I would love to do the bowsame swap too... but I've never made a bow. I keep buying supplies for building but never seem to get it going for one reason or another... There are some awesome bows made I think I would feel bad swapping my begginer bow?! Should I make a few and wait till I can make a better bow to join in?!?
Thanks for your thoughts, jim
