UPDATE:

We have compiled all of the photos submitted for the Calendar Photo Contest. Thank you for sending in such great photos. Here is what we would like to do in terms of a poll. Hopefully later today we will set up a poll that will allow everyone to vote on which photos are featured in the 12 months, by categories, as follows:

'70 - '72 car
'73 - '74 car
'75 - '76 car
Race car

Does anyone have a suggestion of another category?

The photos that get the most votes will be featured in the 12 months. This will guarantee a nice mix of cars featured in the calendar. Only photos that are of a high enough resolution to be printed will be included in the voting (However, after verifying, most are high enough quality). Only one photo of each car will be put into the voting (so that we don't end up with the same car on multiple months). All cars, even if they are not featured in a given month, will be included in the calendar in some way.

If you can think of a detail I missed, please let me know.

We reached goal for sales of calendars, and have received a ton of awesome pictures for the calendar. Thank you.

We are getting ready to close our print order for the calendar. If you haven't ordered yours yet, please post here whether you want one or two - http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=245199 We are not expecting to have many extras. So, if you want one or more, please let us know.

Also, please submit your photos and events for the calendar before the deadline of Sunday, November 23, 2014. You can post them in this thread to submit them, or email them to me - stevegm@mac.com

IF YOU SUBMITTED PHOTOS - Please email the highest resolution version of the photo(s) you have to me at - stevegm@mac.com

Please include all photos that you submitted. We need to check each one to determine if it is suitable for printing before we submit the contest to a 914world vote on Monday. Please even include the bad photos - cars in all stages of . . . . rust. I have an idea.


ORIGINAL POST:
We are assembling a Porsche 914 calendar for 2015, which will go to press in early December. We are doing a limited print run. If you haven't reserved a copy or two you can do so here - http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=245199

CALL FOR EVENTS:
Please let us know about any 914-related, or relevant Porsche, events in 2015 that you are aware of. We would like to consider including them in the calendar. They can be 914-only events, or relevant Porsche events. Please post the events here, or send them to me via PM. Note that only events with a definitive date can be included.

Please include the website (if applicable) and contact information related to the event.

CALL FOR PHOTOS:
Let's make this a contest. What is the worse 914 photo out there? How about the cleanest stock car? Top race car? Send them all.

We already have a number of great photos for the calendar. But, we are also opening it up to photo submissions. So, get out your best 914 photos. We want to see cars in all stages of completion, stock, modified, race cars, piles of rust, before/after, and funniest photos. The winners will be featured in the calendar and the owner will receive a few free copies as well. Photos can be submitted by posting them in this thread, or by sending me a PM and I will send you my email address to submit them. Once photos are chosen we will contact you to get a high resolution version of the photo.

Photo submission note:
Please include the year of the car, whether it is a 914-4 or 914-6, size of the engine, car owner, name of the photographer, and the country where the car is located, if possible.

The deadline for events and photos is November 23rd.
