My friend is in prison right now, and I wanted to send her a postcard. I actually want the postcard to be a picture of my ultrasound. Does anyone know if you can send just a regular photo with a message and address on the back like a postcard?

Researching items to auction off, one pottery/porcelain/ceramic cherub I have says "DEPOSE" on the back. I see the name in descriptions of all sorts of items, but don't know what it means

I am a student who has attended Architectural School for two years. I changed majors to Civil Engineering, but I still want to be an architect. I aspire to go to grad school at a school like Cornell, MIT, Pratt, Columbia, Sci-Arc or Harvard. I've been desperately trying to keep with it. I already have some work in my portfolio (some models to add to it, visual exercises:3D and 2D(like Figure Ground), some drawings, and some digital renderings)), but I'm struggling some keeping my strength, and realizing that keeping up on my own is much harder than I thought. Also, I am trying to land an internship with an Architecture firm. Any suggestions would help. Thanks.

In early photographs from the 1830s, one often sees rather elderly people. I am curious about the oldest person to be seen in any photograph - what year is the farthest back in history reached by photography of people born in that year?

This may come off as a grade school kind of question and there might be a simple answer but, I'm always full of questions and this particular question has been racking my brain! I was wondering when I take a picture why do I appear to look different than mirror image? Is it because in reality I view myself the way I want to see myself? Is it the camera and it's quality? or is it because reality is better looking than a snap shot image? It's hard to explain exactly what I am asking but basically it just seems my camera shot looks distorted or off compared to what I look like in the mirror...you know? And another possibly silly question, is there any explaination to explain if what I see myself as is what other people see me as, as well? Or does it have to be a personal like kind of thing, such as I think I'm pretty but if someone else isn't interested in certain appearence qualities of mine will they view me differently than what I see? best way I can explain it. Thanks for any comments

I want to mainly do Portrait photography. Since I am a beginner and new to digital I can't see paying a fortune which of course I couldn't afford if I wanted to. But what can give me good results without me losing an arm (or leg) :) Just basic portrait photography for the small town I live in?

I'm an art lover I've always enjoyed going to museums and drawing... but lately I've been so occupied with work and school that I haven't found time to draw. I want to sketch and paint again in my spare time. I'm not a great artist, I do enjoy it very much but I would love to learn how to sketch and paint. Are there any specific pencils/charcoals you would recommend to me? Basically...I want to enhance my skills, and I wanna go art supply shopping soon, lol.

Thanks in advance

So please, answer honestly.
