Thinking About Offering a 2005 6GC.net Calendar, What do you guys think? Options

[DamDirtyApes]

yeah the featured rides should be in it. then for the last 2 i say one should be coomer and the other should be lagos

[SlowCelica94]

I'm be interested in it. But the problem with that is every's taste differs. For example, our current cover car makes me throw up in my mouth. And that's what most people enjoy. Now something more along the line of mike dotson's car would be best

[BLINKYxMUNKEY]

id be up for a calender. the idea of the featured cars and 2 more would be great.

[forkee]

plus we can put dates like HIN, or scheduled 6gc meets, etc.

I'm going to go against the grain here and say the featured rides should not automatically be in the calandar- they've already been featured after all- but what we need are EXTREMELY high res photos; and some of those members aren't really around anymore.

We need them to be
1) Hi res (higher than the hi res upload option on this site- STRAIGHT from the camera so Coom, me, or someone proficient can color correct these things)
2) Scenic
3) Of a variety of years; bodel styles, and colors.

Whats wrong with using the featured rides?

Frotou's: Has two scenic picts; and his paint doesn't really photograph well. That, and you'd have to consider a construction site with uprooted trees scenic- It's also just a celica without any of the electronic or engine stuff shown (which should not be on a calandar) and that was primarily the reason this car was picked (I think)

Tufy's: There's nop reason why this car shouldn't be featured; it's a GT4 (which the entire calandar SHOULD NOT BE) but it looks beautiful; also he's taken a TON of scenic photos with it

Turbotone: Obviously could be featured as well; it's also a GT4 (we don't want every picture to be) but it's a different color, diff bodykit; we just need to get hi res picts from him that are scenic (and not taken next to rotting boats)

Everyone agree that we should try and keep models off the cars for this calandar? Lets have it just be cars.

Bkolher: not my style; but it does look good. However, the pictures taken here just aren't scenic enough to make a final cut imho. The car looks good; but it needs to be in a good PLACE.

Soundslut: Beautiful car; needs more scenic photos not taken in a street; which could be a problem; since the car is no longer in this shape? Also, it's an ST (which is good for variety)

ka2: Not very scenic at all - it's an SSIII tho, so variety!

DG: no scenic pictures at all. Well, one in front of his house on crab grass DG, grab a camera and get clicking

ST205: Great, ANOTHER GT4? He's in HK; there should be a ton of scenic spots, but we don't have much to choose from here.

Doggy: ... uhh yeah. no problems here

AUM CELICA: No scenic picts hi res picts- and since he's not active anymore at all.. good luck getting them

mikedodson: Some scenic picts; but they're all cropped- is he active? can we get hi res?



The point is; very few of these are car calandar pictures. All of the cars are excellent; but they have yet to be photographed in the best spots (some of them excluded)

My point? Don't get hung up on the featured rides suggestion; We'd probably get a better calandar is we opened it up to submissions of the best high quality picts a person can take; you'd be surprised how good a 94 ST can look when photographed in the mountains with a view;

get my drift?

[BLINKYxMUNKEY]

or just have everyone start taking pictures and vote for the top 12.

[shid]

Thats what I meant?

[Redline_Racer]

I am in for it, and letting people vote on the top 12 would be awesome. I've allready got plans for the picture I want to take.

[FoREpLayAX]

im with shid on not just using the "featured rides", but if i were to purchase one of these i would kind of like to know which cars are going to be used. Lets say we voted and the top 12 go into the calendar, i would just like to know what the top 12 are before i place an order so that i wont be disapointed with the quality of cars used.

[DamDirtyApes]

yeah, we should start a thread thats for possible calender pictures. i would start it but i dont know if anyone else wannts it... so u guys can start it

[ghostdog]

I'd love to see coomer's car in the calender. one last hurrah for the yellow celi

[CelicaBuddy]

Woo! Id totally buy one! thats a great idea! put my celica in it!
j/k my celica isnt much right now lol

[BlackCelicaGT94]

i like the idea of voting - or com eout with two calanders - one with featured rides plus the two up coming featured rides ;-) those two could be a suprise

and another one that everyone votes on

[dstrbcelica]

i say we vote on it. and i'm down for one too.

Slow the only problem is when you buy a swimsuit calander or a playboy for that matter there are always 1 or 2 chicks that you dont think are hot. So we really cant complain on this one.

[crazycel18]

that sounds like a great idea

[FallenHero]

we could use the 10 featured rides + 2 more

what would be REALLY cool is if we were able to keep ontop of the featured ride thing and the following year, feature those rides in the next calandar.

Sounds like a plan

[importceli]

i really think shid's idea was the best b/c featured ridez already got featured...i mean sure some should b in there because they're amazing but we need variety got to mix it up so we dont got like 12 gt-4's get some variety, i think a vote would mix it up pritty good.

yeah some hot sexy men!!!! :-) j/k!

i knwo some guys are gonna agree wit me on this - sometimes ud rather see the whole car then the girl they put in front of it - plus i think with this calendar it would be too hard - what if the car is hot and the girl isnt so much? i dont care eiter way im putting my order in! whether girls are in it or not! ill submit a pic of my car with a girl on mine - get my room mate on my car or something
