6gc.net 2005 Calendar Submissions - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #18696 63 posts Started by shid
Woot thanks Coom!!

Mr Dude, it's not that I have no faith in your skills, it's just that I can't trust everyone's skills. What if you turn in a picture that looks great- but someone else photoshops their AWESOME picture into what looks like crap?

Or paints their calipers in photoshop? or any NUMBER of things.

I need the originals so this calendar- our calendar- has the best quality.

I've worked in print shops off and on for years- I should be able to color correct and prep for printing 13 images fine.

(and yes, I will do the cropping myself...)

Posted at everythingcelica.net, toyotanation.com, toyotaunderground.whatever, celica.net - any other sites I should post it at? Come on guys! Take those pictures!

We currently have 8 submissions- 4 too little if we were to use EVERYBODY (which we don't want to do) come on guys!
I'll take some mountain / snow-pics this week and see how they turn out.

There will be a public runoff of the top contendors (more than 12) after the submission deadline- pretty much one from every person who submitted will be in the runoff- and THEN people will get to vote on if your car is good enough- and remember, it's not if your car is good enough, if it's the picture is good enough.

So.. submit them anyway >smile.gif> Please?! >smile.gif>

I dont get it, c.net is the "wild" place- but they locked my thread?!

He probably didn't like it at first because it was somewhat "advertising" for this forum, but he did specifically say not to respond to that guy and you did, so then he had an excuse to lock it so what are you gonna do.
Ask him to unlock it? I was addressing an ontop issue, and he called it offtopic- it ain't; and I wasn't bickering.
Amy's picture in front of that castle is so good! I hope she submitted that.
She did >smile.gif>
t-spoon warned you. He's a good guy. You should be blaming only yourself.

Sometimes we live to beat the odds.-Ryanaim: rkgreen04
How did he warn me? Saying: Don't reply to his accusation WITHOUT DELETING his post only made me unable to defend the calendar in a respectful manner- it's an issue.

You should have asked him to delete the bad post... anyways, I'm planning to go on a photoshoot today or tomorrow so I'll be sending pics soon. >smile.gif>

The lowest one I really want to have in there is 1725x1350 - thats only 150 dpi (images are printed at 11.5x9- its not the largest- but thats our smallest print option right now).. Idealy we'd have 3450x2700 or larger for each image.

Bottom line? if it's 1024*768 its too small.


If your images are smaller than 1725x1350; it's at the discretion of the management (err, guess thats me) if we want to sacrafice image quality for a beautiful shot. IE, your picture better be the best picture ever.

Jaws, email them to me- the higher resolution ones.

I like jaws' wing. If I ever got one it would look similar to that.
4 Days left to go, and we have 26 entries- of which perhaps 2 or three are unusable due to resolution (but they've been notified- so don't worry about this possibly being you)

If you haven't submitted yet- get a move on!! on December 7th at 11:59 PM; my mailbox closes and the voting begins.

Jaws, you have still not submitted your pictures
