UPDATE 11.24.08 For quick and easy reference, here are pictures of the front and back covers so they're not buried in the middle of this thread tongue.gif

UPDATE 11.14.08: Thanks everyone for all your effort and contributions to the calendar. I think that despite a few little hiccups in round-1 polling, we pulled it off really great and it's going to be a huge success. Please see page 6 for pricing/ordering info if you would like a calendar! In a nutshell, prices are $18 shipped anywhere in the US; $20 shipped internationally. Payment can be sent to mjgriff1 (at) gmail.com I will combine shipping for multiple quantities over 5; PM me for info.

I've been thinking about this all day now. I'm just not sure what to say given the drama that ensued in the other thread. It was never my intention for it to go down that way and I feel kinda crummy about it. So I apologize for any way that I may have contributed to the little drama that ensued. Please address any comments about the thread via PM so we can keep this one clean and well, without any awkwardness or drama. That being said, I'm just gonna move past it and move forward with the project.

I'm going to make a minor change with the submission requirements. I'd like anyone who already submitted and all future submissions to please fill out a very quick photo release form that basically says you have permission to use the image, the car(s) in the image, and that you're not going to get all freaky against me or 6gc if you some day decide you should've gotten famous or something off this. I've made it as a quick and easy email form that you can find here. (My site is down, so currently the form is not available)

I know a lot of you had wished for a later submission deadline, so I'm throwing October 31st out there, and I'll put up a poll on November 4th because I won't be around on the 3rd, and November 4th is election day here in the US and I thought it'd be funny, and likely the best thing to vote for that day given the choices. tongue.gif

Submissions can be sent to 94CelicaGirl (at) gmail.com. You MUST put 6gc in the subject line!!!! (to avoid SPAM traps)

Here's some of the criteria, copied from the "other" thread:
I've found a way to have these made on an as-ordered basis so no one actually had to go directly through me; once the calendar is available for sale, they will be shipped within 24 hours of placing the order. They will be full color, full bleed spiral bound 11" x 17" and will cost $24.95 plus shipping (about five bucks for shipping in the US, a little more for Int'l.) If you order them in multiples (say the whole Houston crew wants to go in and have them all shipped to one presumably not floated away location) there are quantity discounts that increase in percentage with the qty. ordered. 2-11=5% off, 12-49=10%, etc.

I feel very strongly that images that will appear in the calendar shall be chosen by poll, but I will dictate which images will go into that poll, to be determined solely by using my professional judgment as to whether or not the image is viable for print or not. Having almost 15 years of experience as a graphic designer, I feel that more than qualifies me to make this assessment. If I feel there is an image that is not suitable for print, I will contact the person who submitted it and request a higher resolution image. If one cannot be provided, it will not be considered for publication. Once that assessment is made, my decisions will be final and not open for discussion. I'm not going to produce crap so someone's feelings don't get hurt. I'm nice, but I'm hard core when it comes to putting my name behind something. If you don't like it, don't buy a calendar. wink.gif

Here are a few screen shots with EXAMPLES of how it might look. I chose these images to use for demo purposes only; they are in no way to imply that ANY decision or selection process has occurred at this juncture in time. It is not a final design BY ANY STRETCH (particularly the cover!). It's just something to look at for now.
