6G Celicas Forums

Here's the criteria:

Sean is no longer running this...please re-submit your calendar pic submissions to ccoomer@6gc.net ASAP!

1) Photo must be hi resolution; if it's not hi res enough it simply will be thrown out- clear? This is for a print calendar- we need the best dpi possible and that means you guys submitting the best resolution pictures possible

Minimum: 1725x1350 - thats only 150 dpi
Max: Anything.

DO NOT SCALE UP YOUR PICTURES

2) Photo must be scenic/show off the car, not your girlfriend/hired trash. Look in other calendars for examples. This includes having your trunk, doors, hood, gascap open. Don't. It's out of place.

If I get 50 submissions of a car during summer, and 4 during winter with snow, which do you think are going to have better odds of getting in?

3) Photo must be emailed to ccoomer@6gc.net (by 11:59PM Nov 7th)
In your email you must include:
1) Forum name
2) Real name
3) year and model of car
4) A phone number where you can be reached (I will probably not be calling any of you, as I'm antisocial; but this is for legal reasons if they crop up later and I need to get a release)

PHOTOS POSTED IN THIS THREAD/ OR GALLERIES LINKED WITH A: "TAKE SOME PHOTOS FROM HERE!!" WILL NOT BE COUNTED

Only photos of YOUR OWN car (or cars, if it's a group photo, but only celicas) EMAILED to the above address will be considered.
Also note you may have to send me more than one email- if you're sending more than 2 photos persay- most email programs won't accept attachments above a certain amount. My email address can however take a beating, don't worry about it.

once submitted, I will email you back saying I have recieved your submission

If I don't, hit me up on AIM or PM just in case.

On November 20th; a bunch of "finalists" will be posted for you guys to vote on.

Clear? Any questions?

SUBMISSIONS MUST BE EMAILED. DO NOT POST SUBMISSIONS BELOW (I will not weed through your assorted junk in this thread)
If you upload the picts to a server and email me links to specific picts, thats fine

One last time, thats hi quality photos, emailed to ig98 @ mac.com by Nov 14th at 11:59 PM.

Q: Can I photoshop my car before enterting?
A: No. No photoshops allowed. And I can tell. We'll be working with a very specific print template, and it's important I get the originals so I can color correct them and still have the prints dont decently.

Q: My car isn't anything special.. so I won't submit.
A: It's not how special the car is, it's how good of a photo you take. Someone might have a 3sgte swap and an awesome paint job- but they probably won't make the calendar if they take the picture in a trash dump- while you take yours against the sunset on the pacific ocean. Get my drift?

Q: My car looks like **** now. I dont want to take a picture of it
A: All pictures taken in 2005 are eligable.

Q: I don't have email.
A: PM me, we'll work something out like a spot for you to upload your photos- the point is I want your photos, and we'll work something out to get as many submissions as possible.

BESIDES EMAIL, YOU COULD:
1) Upload the picts somewhere and send me links
2) Send me the pictures over AIM (file transfer only, no Direct Connect please. AIM name is ig98A)

If you do either of the above, you need to send me a PM with the same information I asked you to put in the email

Q: How much?
A: The final calendars will be offered for your purchase AT COST Which should be around 15-17 dollars + shipping. Printing costs are still being figured out. Neither I nor coomer will be making any profit off these calendars. I tried to get Coom to take some money... but he wouldn't.

Q: You're a jerk. How do I know you won't disqualify me just because you hate my guts?
A: This is everyone's calendar- not just my own. We'll be picking the finalists on photo merit only- so take a good photo.

Q: Will you be editing out plates?
A: Yes, dont worry about your plate numbers. They are safe with me. Mwahhah

whoa you signed up today and already know amy?

heck yes they do

Calendars weeeee. I cant wait to buy one!

actually it's 95gtschick (krysten) my computer just wouldn't let me log on as that

... until nov 7 ? Am I too late... I can do hi-res only on 10th of November..? Worthless?

^ ^ ^ ^ im quoting myself, quoting Shid....for you Marchius!! hah ^ ^ ^ ^

I had to set up a yahoo just t send shid the pics because hotmail is gay

Pics sent. I used hotmail. and worked out fine i think. just gotta wait for Shid to mail me back tho to make sure that it got thru fine.

Your picts did not get through fine, hotmail shrinks them down to 600*450; which is three times smaller than we can accept...

Also, they got sent to junk mail for some reason, which I then unjunked, but then they disappeared.

So, resend with non-hotmail.

Niiiice, mine went through no problem, my email lets me send up tp 20 MB's of high res!

I sent from my moms yahoo. So if you get them let me know by e-mailing my hotmail account thank you. And hope they come in fine.

Thank you

Hi Shin
Is mine alright?
or do I've to resend them?

I don't know. I don't have any from CelicaZR, so either you didn't include the information I asked for (in which case you would have gotten an email back), or I didn't get your email at all...
