Let's talk about 2016 calendar :), ...to be or not to be? Options

Since you asked

Any news on a 2016 Calender?

+1!

Lil-Joe101 few days ago rang the bell when messaged me so I looked after many weeks here again (yea shame on me). In terms of calendar I found guys above asking about is. So here it is:

- I have no issues take control in this as previous years but only under the same rules (as before) = decent picture/pictures at minimum resolution 3508x2480 pixles
- Price assumption? I do not know... Not checked prices at all. Last year we got $16 shipped worldwide. The worst guess is +10% to last year price ($16-19 total?). Will make clear when we decide to go. Checked an confirmed: the same as last year $16 shipped worldwide
- Common issues we faced:

a) get 12+1 pictures (decent pictures... and talking about resolution!)
b) get enough interested people to buy it (estimated price is always based on some printed volume - when printed less price is going up)
c) get everything in time... you want it at home before end of the year? we must start immediately!

So what do you think? Calendar 2016 - to be or not to be?

Thank you all for submitted pictures. We are done here . Anyone who is interested to buy calendar please post here http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=96186. All is going according to plan so this month you will have calendars in your hands for sure .


note: during process I have noticed few things related to COTM completion and calendar. Here are some small hits to think about:

- when COTM picture is posted (in case we want it on calendar 2017) it must be available before voting starts in high resolution... correct?
- some people (COTM winners) replaced picture for calendar purpose (better shot or simply because original had resolution issues). Is this OK? is COTM about the picture (can not be changed) or the car in it (can be changed and no issue with that)???
- picture ownership... in some cases owner of the car and picture creator is not the same person. Is creator of picture familiar with the fact his work will be used on calendar in the future? Is that mean it is not possible to use picture from other people for COTM competition (or there must be some kind of disclaimer)???
