I'm sorta new to tying, i wanna do a fly swap to get a look at some different patterns. But I'm not really confident in any one pattern (other then the clouser and deciever, but who isnt) to send them to any one. So wanted to start a fly swap for people like me that are new to tying or some experienced tyiers who wouldnt mind help out some newbies.

Brian-
I would not let experience or lack there of stop you from joining any swap. It's all about comraderie and it's all fun. All efforts appreciated and I can learn from everyone. We all bring our own experiences and ideas. If it wasn't for the timing, I would be join the fun in a second. But it's crunch time. Time to pay for not being more diligent over the winter... Sorry.

I grew up on the salt but have lived in Colorado for seven years with a few trips back east a year. Starting to tie salt-water flies again because I am planning on moving back in a year. I am so excited I have pretty much abandoned all fresh water fly tying, which I never got too good at, too small.

You guys could participate in the other fly swaps, it just might take more attempts to come up with a quality submission.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about submitting your flies to any fly swap. No need to do a newbie fly swap! Most of the time imperfect flies catch more fish than perfect flies anyway. :)
I've only been tying for a bit over 2 years and most of my flies aren't going to win any beauty contests, but they catch fish.
