Hell, I don't care if mine gets in the calendar or not, just having Griff use it on the calendar mock up made my day.

DEFINITELY. It's definitely the best way to ensure print quality images! Don't worry about image quality when I post anything sent in as RAW for the voting though; images will be optimized for web, not for print, when they're posted up for voting. I know my stuff and I won't screw up anyone's images that are chosen for print.



I really like that shot, personally... we see so many images on here of our cars in the summer (for obvious reasons), it's a nice change of pace to see some nice snow shots!

reminder bump - get your images to me, kiddies! See 1st post for details and contact info. And thanks to everyone who's sent in images so far and filled out my little release form. I know it's probably not necessary, but it's a formality I'd just as soon not skip.

ttt

bumpo im just got new rims.......never had a photo session. i might do it at the same place as the previous........or i might see if any swells pick up and try to get that "surfing in hawaii" theme. that's if them tourists dont take the good spots

so griff how many submissions you got so far??? i still have to fill out that form i'll get to that

just wanna make sure you have my 2 submissions

and just had a question.. how would special dates work? would it only show US ones? or it would show special dates for whatever country you are from?

I've got quite a few actually, it's great! Keep 'em coming!

I was asked if more than 2 (or whatever it originally was) submissions can be made. My answer to that is yes - but with a caveat. For the "6gc election day" I don't want to post a million pictures of the same person's car, so I plan on basically exercising my judgment and selecting the best 3 (at most) images for the actual election. My criteria will be based on a few things: print quality in terms of resolution and layout/positioning for the calendar itself, composition (interesting locations, background) and actual car placement/angle. I would like to have a really strong variety of angles and backgrounds to create some nice variety for the calendar. I'm also going to choose the most professional looking shots among the groupings; so if someone sends me 15 pictures that look like cell phone snap shots, and two that look really good and look more professional, I'm gonna post up those two and bag the other 13.

gotcha now im just waiting for the crappy weather to start. its hurricane season......so that means big waves........but not much sun

try and get some pics with big waves... that would be awesome

bumpity - get some pix! Fall colors? Got snow? DO IT!

Where's my sexy on that calendar? I'd prefer September.

im trying and waiting, but winter sucks here

bump me love you long time now send me your pic-chers biznatches!


Free bump for Corporate Bailout Day - goodbye, cruel stock market!

The 31st is just around the corner and submissions have seriously waned. Don't miss your opportunity to show your car off in print! Bump!

Just sent mine to you. But the photo release form link is broken

Thanks for doing this griffGirl. Looking forward to the voting round

My site is down - my host broke up w/me. LOL

No release form until I get a new host for my site. Hopefully next week, or at least by the end of the week for someplace to park the release form so it's accessible again.

PS: Shink, I tried replying to your email, but it bounced saying your mailbox is full. But I got your submission, thank you!

o damn. i got bored and was about to fill out the form

would be nice having some list who already posted something to avoid problems like: "I have send you pictures a month ago! Why I'm not in vote list?"

x2 on this.

That's a great idea; if it's not too slammed at work today, it's something I'll work on this afternoon actually. I will make a list of who's sent in submissions, and I'll also set up a photobucket or Flickr account so people can see the photos. I really want to ensure this isn't any kind of "popularity" contest or anything though, so I'm not going to associate names with the images when I set up the gallery. Also remember, I'm going to pick the best 2 or 3 of images sent by each person for the actual voting, so if you see ten of your pix in the gallery, it does not mean all 10 will be in the actual poll once it's posted. Of course I remain open to suggestions though - this calendar is for the 6gc community, not for myself alone, so if people object or have other ideas, I'm TOTALLY open

Sounds good GriffGirl. your a legend .
