Question? Does it have to be a pic of the car? Or can it be the engine bay? Like someone swappin... Just to change it a bit lol.... Or someone autocrossing it. Or one running throught the mud. Not just any picture lol, but something different I think we did that with czwalga once. Yeah I think itd be a good addition. I have always wanted to take some nice shots of me working on the car but always end up working more than picture taking haha I like that month design martin. just needs a more sleek typefont I like that cover image as well. Just to help out I will try to throw out some cover image designs using that picture.

Tigawoods indeed . No focus in terms of font or any graphic details. Just let go idea to the paper as fast as I could with first picture . Will tweak it for sure.
jordisonjr... to be honest I would like to get 12 pictures. I do not care about process. You have 10days starting now . I hate this part because there always someone will be disappointed. My target is clear: - 12 pictures - minimum resolution 3508x2480 pixles - well made (please no blurry mess) And that's it. In case you will make me choose I have own opinion and rules (you saw them last year) what might not be sexy for everyone... please do selection instead of me this year. So once again. 12 pictures... 10 days (better one week) to give chance to the people to see what they buying. I have two weeks to collect payments (and meet deadline 8th November given by printing company= day when I need to know how many calendars will be printed and to pay for them) So far I see 3 submitted cars. Please go on! This post has been edited by malpaso: Oct 23, 2015 - 9:07 AM -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

richee3 nice pictures (I like "the wall" one ).
I have feeling you do not understand people situation. Printing company will DENY to print pictures below 3508x2480 pixles. So yes it is nice having 12 candidates already (COTM winners) but if just single one has not picture in proper resolution we are lost and need replacement. That is why I say for years: "do you want COTM people = calendar people? make rules also related to quality of the source...". So yes. It is nice someone made nice accidental shot with his cellphone. It is COTM worthy... congratulations. But it doesn't mean it is also calendar worthy. So lets start take this serous: 1. Tigawoods 2. kloudkicka 3. JaQb_CK 4. Chromed 5. hotgt4 6. Red123 7. blockustomz 8. DarkDeath 9. 4-eyed-freek 10. JFXtreme 11. Bakuu0 12. RoadRage if anyone of those will not deliver 3508x2480 pixles plus image in time (by the end of this month) will be replaced with anyone who will deliver proper picture to me. Listed so far: - PegGTS - richee3 - enderswift - malecrod - Hug0 - malpaso - Rusty In this moment I have in fact 5 sets in proper resolution. My one, PegGTS, richee3, Rusty (as decent replacements ready to go ) and JFXtreme with 4-eyed-freek (only two who will be on calendar for sure in this moment) Please all interested people here confirm/check if you are listed in FS topic http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=96186 This post has been edited by malpaso: Oct 26, 2015 - 1:08 AM -------------------- No more replicas...

I understand the issue with the resolution. I also understand the time crunch so I'm just making suggestions and since we had used the COTM as a template in the past, I was just gathering all the photos in one place. My shots aren't anything special. I have the full resolution pictures saved on my computer and you know how Photobucket kills the quality. I wish I had more shots of more cars (and from different angles) but those are the best of the pictures I have that will meet the resolution criteria. I also realized earlier today that I need to ask permission of the owners before submitting pictures of their cars as candidates for the calendar so for now, I'm pulling my pictures down until the owners decide if they'd like their cars in the calendar.

...I'm pulling my pictures down until the owners decide if they'd like their cars in the calendar. No worries. Fully understand. Pictures of your car are perfect and fully usable so I hope they can stay . So far we have candidates but we are far from having "12 printable pictures". In fact - in total count - we have 5. Two COTM wines and 3 replacements. In case you get permission from other guys we can have nice "backup plan" available in case some COTM pictures will be unreachable. -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution...

I would prefer to use one of the photos I took due to photo rights and whatnot but if mine are not high enough resolution, I will also include this one taken by a photographer at a local meet.

I found not every month suits every photo composition (long month vs short month = grid with squares is different size) and 4-eyed-freek's COTM wining picture was real challenge .
Anyway. This should be it... Actual January 2016 sheet. I hope no complains -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

If you have big enough pictures (3508x2480 pixels plus) please do it. Anyone is welcomed. We have really tight schedule and I am sure not all COTM winners will have high resolution pictures or will deliver those pictures on time (deadline is by the end of month). And only when I have any 12x 3508x2480 pixels plus pictures in my hand it is making calendar really possible. Now I have six (and just two from COTM winners). So more pictures submitted the better. Just to be sure and having "plan b" ready.
