|  Cutters Task
1. Download the Pattern. Go to the pattern assigned and left click on it with your mouse to open it up. Then right click on the enlarged picture and choose “save as” and save the pattern to your desktop or to wherever you download pictures.
2. Post Portrait for Approval. Post the finished portrait in the Finished Portraits album. 3. Prepare Portrait for Shipping. Go into the Portrait Backing/Press Release link to get the portrait backings, which are titled Portrait Freedom Memorial.PDF. It is best to print them on white card stock. Put your name and the designer’s name on the card, and place them in envelopes. Then tape the envelopes to the back of the portraits 4. Shipping the Portraits. A lot of cutters have experience shipping portraits, but if you haven’t shipped any, it is recommended that you wrap the portraits in bubble wrap or protect them in some similar manner. Use a delivery service that confirms delivery. Post on the site in the Project Board when you have shipped your portraits and again when you have confirmation they have been received. This helps us to track the number of completed portraits for the project. 5. Recommendations. We suggest that you ask for direct feedback from the family. Include a short note asking them to send you a post card to let you know the portraits arrived in good shape. Some cutters even enclose an addressed postcard with the portraits. It might also help to include your phone number.
**Note** Some portraits (from the SFA and SPA albums) are going to be delivered to some family members without their knowledge of our group project. Some family information is given out to us by the military as next of kin contacts and we have a good address and we find pictures on the internet for the soldiers. With this information we go ahead with the soldier for the project. If you are hand delivering them and the family was not expecting them please give them a run down of what we do and let them know that our gift is from the heart and it is to honor the ultimate sacrifice that their loved one has paid for our freedom. Use your own words to discribe our project and what it means to you to help out with your tallents in this way. |
