I'm not sure if this thread should be in the sandbox, but I'm starting it here. Maybe an administrator can move it if necessary.

I haven't seen that anybody organized a calendar group buy this year, so I'm thinking that people could post their favourite 914 photos from the last year, then members could use them to make a calendar via a Staples/Walmart/Vistaprint etc on-line system.

There wouldn't be any voting or anything, you'd just grab the photos you like best from the thread.

Not sure about resolution though -- can we post them directly on this thread with an acceptable resolution? Please provide guidance or recommendations if you have any.

EDIT: please post pictures with resolution around 2000 x 1500 pixels.

Thanks!
Matt aka mobymutt

great idea - gives me another idea as well, make my own calendar with pictures over the past 2 years during the restoration etc

That's what my daughters had suggested to me, but 12 months of rustbucket photos would get a bit tiring! Thought using other people's nice cars would be a better idea!

I absolutely love this idea! I am going to do this for sure. Now to figure it out
Thanks Matt

I had also considered this. a couple years ago I made a calendar on Shutterfly featuring our Akitas.

They have a couple sizes available. Guess I better get movin' on it.

I'll start with this picture. Use it if you like it.

I tested Olympic 914's photo on Vistaprint (which my wife recommends, not sure if it's just Canadian or what). It says the resolution is too small (960 x 720).

It looks like 2000 X 1500 pixels doesn't give an error, so please aim for that resolution when uploading photos to the thread. Thank you!

You can also make one at Walgreens in store photo department.
They even help you if needed.

This is why I need other pictures:



FYI, that was taken at my first autocross ever, so I'll probably use it anyway.

Bump! Anybody else with pictures they'd like to contribute?

I know one guy that will be posting a pic of his teener here.

Posted by: rstover Dec 5 2018, 07:34 PM

I hope this is OK. This is a couple of my favorites. Not sure about pics

Posted by: mobymutt Dec 5 2018, 09:55 PM

Great, keep'em coming! Remember 2000 x 1500 pixels (or thereabouts) if you can.

Yeah, why aren't you offering this one as a group buy?

Posted by: VegasRacer Dec 9 2018, 05:03 AM

This is a DIY thread.


Just steal my JPEG's from the internet like everybody else does.

Posted by: cary Dec 9 2018, 09:09 AM

I like that one too. I use it when people ask about the shop.

$19.99 at Costco. DIY. I'm thinking I'll take a picture from every corresponding month last year.

Posted by: mobymutt Dec 11 2018, 07:27 AM

Any more? Time's running out to get your car on someone else's wall!

Posted by: Olympic 914 Dec 11 2018, 08:00 AM

OK, I am going to throw this one out again...

When I emailed it to myself the phone resized it to 960x720

This is the full size pic. 2576x1932.

Posted by: StratPlayer Dec 11 2018, 11:29 AM

Wow went into the car of the month winners thread to look for some pics for a calender, man does that thread need to be updated...

Posted by: DRPHIL914 Dec 11 2018, 12:20 PM
