will 3264x2448 work?

[malpaso]

will 3264x2448 work?

I believe this is not a problem... few pixels plus-minus . I just wanted to avoid misunderstandings what "high resolution picture" is. I received 1024x768 pixel pictures from few people last year and they called it "high resolution once" . So 3264x2448 is still fine. Thank you!

[Tigawoods]

this one I think

[Lil-Joe101]

Hey Malpaso, just a thought bro, can u put the days on this calender? The one we have now is awesome but hard to know what day it is Mon-Sun. Just an idea.

[azian_advanced]

damn my camera phone only does up to 3264x2448.
*need to buy a real camera*

[malpaso]

Tigawoods: Thanks for the first piece!
Lil-Joe101: I plan to change design a bit anyway so it should not be a problem.
azian_advanced: who cares! As I said it is just few pixels below. No big deal. Please post this one!

hopefully this fits the requirements?

[azian_advanced]

azian_advanced: who cares! As I said it is just few pixels below. No big deal. Please post this one!

actually that pic was taken with an older camera phone but it's 3264 x 1836 pixels.
i have absolutely zero photography skills but that's the best shot i've ever taken!
here's the original image: download link.

Just after few small amateur tweaks it looks pretty fine to me

hopefully this fits the requirements?

Looks absolutely perfect! Just do not forget to send me the high resolution sample. Thank you!

[Timmyface]

i have tones, take a pic





Or any others anyone's seen me post.

[HectortheRican]

I'll post a picture in a week or so. I gotta finish repairing my motor, then I'll give her a nice wash/wax to take a few good pics.

[Chromed]

Some pics from Latvia

[diegohiga]

i like these but ill like to take a rolling shot. never took one of these before
sorry if they are a bit big. im on my phone and couldnt resize them

[HectortheRican]

Hey, Diego, I thought the white balance on your latter two was way off, so I took some liberties. Hope you like the really quick edit.

[satelite]

Malpaso, sending email.

[Rusty]

[malpaso]

Thank you all for participation. I have updated first post with some statistics how we are in the middle of the month with pictures. I made my self few last weekend so if there is some spare month I use one of those...










Rusty: thats the great one . Thank you! Just do not forget to send me full res. sample to my mail please.

satelite: thanks for the mail with pictures. You send eight of them what is great. Unfortunately I'm not sure about those picture resolutions...
1280x857
1024x685
1024x685
970x649
960x547
960x642
960x640
720x480
Until making collage from all together they are all useless for printing

diegohiga: Great job... I have just feeling useless... do I get right note from you have only those 1024px × 768px (you wrote you can not resize them so sending maximum resolution (not 800x600 as I asked for display purpose only in this post).

Chromed: Amazing... please give me an e-mail with full resolution samples.

HectortheRican: Perfect. Can not wait to see results...

Timmyface: DAMN... you never let me down . When you have some time just send me the "fake rolling one" and "Untitled-3.jpg" if you agree.

cheela: Thank you, mail received! Everything perfect.

[Timmyface]

Incoming photos - I had to send 3 seperate emails, i remember this from last time that i couldn't send them all at once.

[satelite]

Well Malpaso, What do you want? reasize this pics or what?
I believe this first in HD are fine to use. ????????

[Timmyface]

Satelite: I'm not sure what the problem was, but i think he NEEDS at least a 3000pixel photo so it prints a high quality image.
In photography, the resolution Malpaso stated, is the best for an A4 Image.

You can't resize images Up either, you will lose quality.

[jordisonjr]

Damn awesome pictures here.
Are these just celicas of the month, or can anyone submit?

[malpaso]

I have received some pictures to my mail. Thank you for that. When I'm back from holidays I will update the list in first post.

Exactly... thanks for comment in better English . Now I hope everyone got the point.

Anyone... since celicas of the month is no guarantee the picture is also available in printing resolution (and that means width 3000pix plus) anyone can.

[Tigawoods]

did you get mine?

[malpaso]

did you get mine?

Got mails from 4 people. From you included. Thanks Mike!

So will there just be voting on them?
I'd like to submit mine, but not sure if its really that nice to put in a calender so I don't want to take away opporunities from guys with nicer cars.
But if there will be voting I'd like to submit because worst case is that it doesn't get it

Last year there was no need for voting because we had just 13 cars... if this year are more than 13 there will be some voting for sure. Anyway please post yours. No worries with that.

OK, if it is still possible to participate and you think these pictures are good enough for your calendar, then see below. The resolution would not be a problem.

Just let me know, which one (if any) you want me to send in full resolution.

[Urputus]

Thanks man, only the weather was not on my side. It was windy, cloudy and after I made a few pictures also rainy

Thanks; it's for second time someone likes the second picture

why is there no gap in the hood. nobody noticed that. its a gt4 hood and a oem bumper. there should be a gap, what did you do?

[jcbass7]

[malpaso]

sent a few to your email

...

Thanks a lot... I really like two of those you posted:







Since I had some time to play with pictures I tried to prepare few draft designs (in case you do not want just copy that one from this year):



Modified version #1...



Version #2...

[Timmyface]

Are there any other type of designs that aren't 1 page, but a hanging 2 landscape A4 page, picture up top, calendar on bottom?

[malpaso]

Are there any other type of designs that aren't 1 page, but a hanging 2 landscape A4 page, picture up top, calendar on bottom?

This is based on setup from last year printing to keep price as low as possible (one side printing) that should be $14 max $15 (depends on exchange rate CZK -> USD) delivered. Of course I can ask if is possible to have calendar printed from both sides (picture and big calendar sheet) but am not sure how it moves with the price (expecting +3 dollars per calendar as seen other services printing company offers = total delivered $17-18 per calendar, but would need to check first to be sure.

Now still do not have enough material for all pages anyway

[Timmyface]

Well once we get enough photos, make another poll, seeing what people want, and what they are willing to pay!

[Urputus]

I found one more picture in my portfolio

[malpaso]

Great job everyone! When I have two more sets of high resolution pictures available we are ready to go and calendar is prepared.

[azian_advanced]

those sample pics look great martin! i also prefer the 2-sided hanging calendar with the calendar in a full page. i like being able to write reminders for each day as i have a tendency to forget birthdays and such.

[Lil-Joe101]

I voter version #2 malpaso. All the way.

[malpaso]

There is one week left and still do not have all months filled... I have messaged few people here on forum and asked them for their pictures so we will see how this help.

I have also made few calculations in terms of prices and situation is like this:

a) same size and stile as last year (A4 with stripe below the picture - aka one side A4 printed) would be total $14 (shipped one piece)
b) same size but different size (2xA4 where one is picture and second is calendar - aka double side printed A4) would be for 2 dollars more = $16 (shipped one piece).

note: calendar sheet will be made by me as "international" so no country specific holidays or names on it. Just grid with black numbers (Sunday in red) and name of the days above the grid. So decide if those extra 2$ worths it... and vote please here: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=87296

[malpaso]

Still waiting for e-mails (at least two!) with pictures I can use... on Monday I need to make some conclusion so please everyone who promised pictures send them as soon as possible. Thanks!

Priority is who own the picture (who is the creator must give primary permission). Anyway I personally prefer also owner of the car agree with being posted here and featured in calendar (it is at least politeness and matter of respect).

[malpaso]

RedSun will send you his pictures of my celica, and I got some other

legend from Poland is here as well. Nice to see you here again. Just hope he will have bigger resolution than 2380x1271 or 2451x943 (as I see from posted pictures... I need at least 3000pixeles, 3500pixeles width is optimum)

Definitely no other generations.... I believe TomPoz would be happy (and I would be happy to ) to see his beauty here but this is really just 6gen calendar. Thank you.
