Are you talking about the official LS1Tech one or an LS4 only one. I highly doubt an LS4 would make it into the official one, which is why I'm not adding my name to it.

Also, I gave up on the calendar and CotM things, people on here are so negative.

Whether an LS4 will make it is one thing, the fact no one actually submits is another. It's easy to complain you're not in when you don't even try. When there was a calendar attempt last year the admin specifically said they wouldn't mind having an LS4 car in but no one has ever submitted. I'm sure if the pic was good enough it would have at least a chance.

Yea, I'd agree with that. But it just as much has to do with the overall picture and background as well.

Well there has always been a girl in the years past.

Lets be honest here, who buys the calendars to look at the cars?

My opinion is that the previous ls1tech calendars were unique because they had our cars AND our girls..

Thats just my opinion though. If there is enough demand otherwise, it can change
That's from the calendar thread.

I don't know about y'all but when I buy a car calendar I buy it for the cars.

If we do decide to do one, I'm in. Hopefully I can make this thing look good with proper lighting.

I am not sure if you already had a place in mind to make them Mel, but kodak gallery has volume pricing.

http://www.kodakgallery.com/gallery/...catId=Calendar

I have not compared prices to anywhere else, just throwing the link out there.

What're the requirements on the pics? Car only, no people, no other cars, full car only? Ya gotta specify.

Also recommend having your hi-res on handy but post a 800x600 on here.

You could pull a few from the CotM thread.

I would say no other cars or people if it was me. Wouldn't necessarily need full car shot if the overall picture/background is good.

That price is not bad for the Kodak package. I'm paying around that much for the NAIOA calendar @ 50 units. Not sure what kind of paper they're using...we're just getting lightweight stock. Wish I saw that earlier...never thought to look at Kodak. Every other online calendar place wanted over $20/unit with a minimum of 100...

Only problem w/going w kodak would be that they will only ship to one person, who needs to ship them out to everyone else. Not a big deal, but more shipping costs. Too bad, too, since they have a 25% discount until 12/17...knocks the calendar down to 11.50 or so, plus shipping.
