EDIT II: Tuesday, September 11th, 1300 CET.
thanks to two reasons stopping the poll sooner...

Reason no.1: some people do not follow instruction and not voting as requested = lessons learnt: only public voting has sense
Reason no.2: just today I noticed I forgot to add one picture set (I have used is as an example and finally forgot to list it in... what a shame). = lessons learnt: count twice (or better even more times) before submit anything...

Results after four days were:



Now preparing some conclusion how will final calendar look like.

I tried to do more than just draft and found this:

When half of bottom page is used for calendar grid will have 21 x 26 mm (0.8 x 1.0 inch) for each day of a month. And as I said I can use all pictures (even those great with lower resolution)





When I use full A4 page size of grid will not be doubled because limitation is height. height can me maximum 1.3 inch. Reason is I need 7 rows (name of the day + 6 possible week rows because for example September 2013 will need it) and height of A4 page can not handle more. So space for everyday will be like 1.8 x 1.3 inch and looking like this in the end:





I want this to be clear to not make anyone disappointed because it may not be enough. I really need to have space below (gray in the picture). So height +30% and width is double than first example. Hope it is fine.

Thank you everyone for inputs. I do not buy thematic calendars (and now I have even two - 6gc.net and celica-club.lv one hanging on the wall - and both I take "for viewing purpose only") for making notes. To not forget things I have electronic diary (with alerts as only way how to not forget ). So fully agree with less grid - more Celicas opinion. From design view (as my taste say) is more nice to see second picture of the same car than two different once (usually because made by two different photographers with different style and composition) and it is disturbing... at least for me. But that is not important. We have the list now and I believe the list is complete. Those days in fact receiving only "second" or "third" pictures of the same car to have more material to work with. What is great and also opens opportunity to really have two pictures of the one car used. In fact I have almost for all cars more than one picture...

So if it were just about me I would use:

- double A4 format
- smaller calendar grid (A5 size as you see below)
- two pictures of the same car (one full A4, second remaining A5 size by the grid)



On Friday I would start poll in this topic (just by editing original post and adding vote buttons) with pair pictures for everyone involved and leaving it one week running. Everyone would have chance to pick 11 favorite pairs. And that would be the trick . Last month of 2013 will be used for mixture of remaining pictures (6 if counting right). Because I really would like to thank everyone for enthusiasm and participation this way.
