I decided to start another thread on this subject because the other one sort of got hijacked by Jason Alexander. I'm really serious about doing a bottle calendar for 2012 with photos from all of you. So much so, that I'm willing to front the money. It looks as though they can be made for $7.99 each. I was thinking, if we charge $9.99 each, plus the shipping, we could donate $2.00 per calendar sold, to the site. On a run of 25, that would be $50.00. I know that some of you aren't able to afford the $9.99, but that's where Secret Santa will come in handy this year. What I'm thinking is, let's run another contest, for lack of a better word, and submit photos for consideration. At the end of whatever deadline we decide, we'll then vote for our favorite 12. Here's a couple of rules that I would suggest, and might even demand seeings how I'm the money man. []
2 photos max per member. No one has the time to view your whole photo album, so make it your 2 best.
No face shots or animals in the pics. And that means no dead squirrels either. [8|] This is a bottle calendar.
Another suggestion is to have a theme for certain months. December/Christmas. January/Happy New Year, and July/Independence Day, to name a few. You get the idea. RoadDog, I believe it was, had the perfect one for July in Charlie's contest last month. Another thing. I'm not a lawyer, or even play one on TV, but does anyone know if we need to have a signed document of some sort from the photographer/member to print their pics in a calendar?
Anyway, give me some feedback. We don't have a lot of time if we want them ready for 01/01/12. ~Mike
