2008 Calendar Submissions, 6gc.net calendar Options

[playr158]

I'm going to start collecting photos for calendar consideration.

HOW TO SUBMIT

a) DEAD LINE TO SUBMIT- OCT 19th by midnight (anything after will be auto deleted)

b) EMAIL THEM TO districtymotorsports@gmail.com

c) HIGH RESOLUTION PHOTOS ONLY

I'll then have a photo voting thread up for top 12 votes
which will close no later than 10/31/07 mid night and will go to production

A "style" voting thread will come up with in the next 1-1.5 weeks

(to get this started, if someone else wants to step up and do it then let me know and pm coomer)

Coming from a professional standpoint (I'm a graphic designer now for 13 years) the images must be 300 dpi for print to look polished and professional. For an 8.5 x 11 print size with a full bleed, 3300x2550 is going to have the best results. Remember, the image has to be able to reach 1/8" past the edge of the document area for the bleed.

This doesn't exclude smaller images, mind you. Not all of the images need to be a full bleed - they can always be placed "widescreen" style, with a black matte top and bottom, etc. Also, if the TOTAL calendar size is 8.5 x 11, then is the art just going on the top half of the page? That means the images will be 8.5 x 5 (ish), allowing for the binding. That opens it up even more!
