In4Calendar!

8 from 12 is not bad. Sadly any COTM rules don't say participants need to have picture in suitable resolution for printing. So even those 8 no need to exist in good enough resolution at all.

That's issue I faced from the first moment. Not just 12 pictures you need. You need 12 pictures in high enough resolution. Good luck with that .

A calendar seems to be much easier than most any of the other options we have.

How about a design where instead of image on top page and dates on the bottom, we enlarge the document size to 11x17(or similar) and have a downsized calendar on the lower portion of the image?

I am more for the image than the dates, but I know some of you may lean the other way a bit. If this is an idea people can get onboard with, I can set up an image submission thread and see what I can get out of it.

That would be cool, as I've seen calendars like that before. That or maybe have the backing extend below the pictures and have a yearly calendar there, then more people can be in it than just twelve.

Photobucket has a sale on calendars until Friday, they're $10 each. Not sure what the customization is like or if anybody would still be interested, just throwing it out there.

why make it so complicated.

Look if someone steps up to the plate, pick the pictures of your liking. order 20 calendars, and sell them first come first served. I mean, at this rate, might as well plan 2016 rather than 2015. because ive never seen such and indecisive group.

some will like this, some wont. cant please everyone. There are some sites, that you submit the pictures, and create the calendar, and anyone can order directly from the site, more pricey, but hey.. that way no one can say money is being made, by who started the initiative.

1 month, and nothing, lol... its not rocket science.

Unfortunately I don't have the money right now to order 20 or so calendars, otherwise I would.

I keep wanting to serieously take the wheel but my car keeps taking away the time and money

Folks, what is happening here is pretty normal. I have faced this many times especially on forums in my country. People complain about the way things are done and when giving chance for change (doing things different - better - way) nothing happens. I usually say "better to have 50% of something than 100% of nothing".

For 2015 I have calendar sorted (it would be nice to remember amazing 2009 to me ). But 2016 is problem... February has +1 day so "recycling" is not an option. So I will make Celica calendar for sure. Only question is: 6gc.net's one in a batch or single Malpaso's one... 50% of something than 100% of nothing?

I am in for both ideas, the poster and the calender. The poster example above is excellent. Perhaps the Mods can start a poll on how many calenders each of us want etc and have people send money upfront and reserve a spot.

My 2C.

My indecisiveness is contagious apparently.

Personally I think finding a site where you submit the pictures you want and everyone can personalize the calendar to their liking etc... is good. Start a thread for everyone to post a few pictures of their car and everyone can select from it. That way there's no hurt feelings as no one gets left out and everyone can have their perfect calendar.

shutterfly. here is the thing. we are not going to reach a unanimous decision on a calendar this year. lol.. period. this thread started november 18, and nothing has been done. LOL.

20 min tops...

easy. just a rough draft. picked cars from the monthly winners, and from recent pics.

some pics are not high resolution. unfortunately nothing i can do.

feb, march, april, september and november, needs better resolution pictures...

also cant use the logo, because i dont have permission. lol..

This is unbeliveable. I can believe again doing this... Here is the thing:

I have searched through pictures here and picked 13 I found (first 13 I liked... nothing else). mostly between last COTMs and pics posted here http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=48805

Now... I see no problem to message all "affected" to share with me FULL RESOLUTION image of the same (or maybe even better picture?) since they have skills to show nice picture. Make calendar template is question of few days. Have result printed another few days (after X-mass will be free everywhere). Delivery is question of 7-10days.

So... you can have it by the end of January made as "2015 February - 2016 January" piece. Since I will design it and let print as is (like I always did) not a single problem...

There are 13 names:

- all can be used (one for cover)
- one fails (cover will me mix)
- two fails (there are more great pictures OR I can simply put my celi there anytime...)
- three fails... (too complicated to get 11 pictures??? so lets forgot about calendars here once for good)

THE ISSUE: how many calendars to print?

No I am not going to put money into it. Just the effort. So

1st: known amount of calendars
2nd: PayPaled costs = confirmed amount of calendars
3rd: printing of confirmed amount of calendar only

Price? Should be the same as last year I believe (for at least 10 printed) = $16 shipped.

NOTE: no 6gc.net logo = just calendar (if you want to lets call it "malpaso's 6gc.net favorite")

Oh Malpaso, you just couldn't help it?

I'm in for a calendar, I can send you a high res photo if you need.

Timmyface isn't even around anymore, sold his awhile back.

Yeah I was gonna say, perhaps find another car to use in place of Timmyface's

why such a negative waves?

and exactly as PegGTS said: there are more interesting pictures around

Negative wave? Isn't that an oxymoron? Was just saying it'd be more befitting and fair for a current member to be featured versus someone that doesn't even own the car anymore.
