It's that time again folks. Yes, another calendar thread!

 

Contrary to popular beliefs, I'm not quite dead yet. Just having a difficult time, but slowly getting there.

 

I won't know the full cost of these just yet, but once I know how many are required, then I can get that confirmed. I'm hoping around £12 UK and £17 Europe (as last year), including postage, but all depends on the quantities ordered.

 

As last year, there will not be a submission thread, as done previously, as I just want your high-resolution photos to look at!

 

Please see below for full instructions.

 

 

Categories

 

There then will be a short round of entries for the 6 categories for everyone to vote on.

 

Action

Artistic

Events/Groups

Night

Photoshopped

Scenic

 

Two photos will be chosen from each category. Any runner ups in those categories that are of decent enough quality will also be considered, and possibly used as well in a lesser form.

 

No Photoshopped entries allowed in any category except the Photoshopped one. Minor alterations to hide number plates will be accepted (I can edit photos to do this, so if you require me to do so, then please mention it!).

 

Time scales:

 

The time scales for this years calendars are;

 

Submissions in by 30th November

Voting done by 6th December

First batch will be mailed out as soon as they are produced.

 

Entry requirements

 

We are still getting some submissions that are totally unsuitable for printing.

To try and reduce the number of unusable entries this year, please make sure any photos you submit are at least 3508px wide and 2480px high, or a minimum of 300dpi (standard press quality).

To take a photo of this resolution requires a minimum of 8 mega-pixels (this also means 'maximum' quality iPhone 4S+/Samsung Galaxy S2+ type images, which will be considered too).

Photos larger than this will be accepted, but photos much smaller than this may be rejected, as I want to minimise pixelation.

 

How to enter

 

To enter you need to email me your finest quality photos as attachments to [email protected] with a subject of "Calendar {category} Entry", substituting {category} for a category above, and putting your forum user name in the message body.

 

If you want to send me multiple photos (not hundreds, but within reason, of course!), then that's fine. I will then sift through them and pick a few that will be put forward for a vote, but my decision on this is final.

 

What happens next?

 

Once the deadline for entries is reached, a vote will take place on all accepted entries in each category. The entry with the highest number of votes from each category will go into the calendar (the closest runner ups will also feature, but in a lesser form and depending on image quality too).

 

How do I get a calendar?

 

The club will start to take payments for the calendars once the voting has finished. They can print any number on demand, which will mean that I can accept payments, and produce the calendars without the worry of not having enough or too many. Once we've received your payment, you will receive your calendar within a fortnight of your order.

 

Terms and conditions

 

Photos must be submitted by 30th November.

Photos must be suitable for the category they are entered into.

Photos must be 3508px wide and 2480px high, or a minimum of 300dpi (standard press quality). 8 mega-pixel camera or above (iPhone 6/Galaxy S4 quality, etc).

No notification or justification will be given for rejected entries. If your photo doesn't appear in the voting thread then it has been rejected.

There is no limit on the overall number of entries per category.

Each car may only be submitted once per category, but you may submit the same car (but not photo!) in more than one category.

If the same car wins more than one category only one of the photos will be included in the calendar. I will pick which one is included.

The submitter MUST own the copyright of the photo, and the submitter agrees to indemnify the club against any loses or costs incurred as a result of their entry.

The Supras in the photos submitted MUST belong to members of this club.

The photos must be of Supras only. No people or other cars to be in the photo (expect in group photos or action shots).

If you have had your car professionally photographed, please make sure your submissions do not have any logos or graphics stuck on the photos by the photography company, please.

I reserve the right to merge any of the above categories if a category is failing to get submissions.

I reserve the right to change and/or add to these rules without notice.

I reserve the right to cancel the 2016 calendar without notice or justification.

The club's decision on any matter is final.

 

 

I still miss my Supra every day.

Hello Andrew! Really looking forward to a new calendar :-)

 

Could it be possible to implement week numbers? I don't know if it's common or not in the UK, but here it's on all calendars.

 

 

Yes, I am sure I can insert week numbers as well.

 

I do quite a lot of work with a Dutch company, and they are always quoting week numbers to me.

 

It will help me too! :)
