Forkee brought up the idea of maybe having a 2005 6GC.net calendar, and I'm thinking of having one made with some awesome photos of peoples' cars from the site.
I'd have to look into costs of getting them produced professionally here, but what do you guys think about it? -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

Any image should be fine as long as its 300 dpi at the calendar size plus bleed. If the calendar is going to be 11x17 with a top half image in an 8.5x11 area it would need to be 3300x2550 plus some if you wanted it to bleed over the edge. You can also have them made inexpensively at cafepress.com, people could order them independently of the 6GC site and the profit would go directly to the shop administrator. Let me know if you guys need any prepress help.
The only thing I would caution is scanning in an image that was previously printed, a photo is fine, but if it was a printed image the scanner pattern and the printer pattern will cause a moire effect on the image, like if you put two window screens together and rotated the front one. |
