2006 Third Gen Calendar Competition

I am awaiting a response from the admins as to if they condone this. I do not assume there to be any problems and have some spare time so I am posting now and hope it will not be removed later.

As some of you will remember for 2004 I took on the project of creating a 12 month calendar that fell apart when no printer was located. I have since located a printer and am anxious to complete this project for a 2006 calendar.

On this page here are the details:

http://www.johnsondigitalphoto.com/calendar.html

No need to flood this post with pics and bog down TGO's server. Use the link at the bottom of the linked page to e-mail me photos that you want considered.

Contact me through e-mail if you would rather use an ftp program to upload pics rather than e-mail them.

I'll definately be submitting some pics. Now i only have one 'scenic' pic that has been photoshopped to remove the date...i have a few other nice scenic shots, but they have the date in the bottom corner, is that going to be a problem???

EDIT: Also i realized that my pics are only like 1068x7?? so you're gonna have to give me some time to make them as big as you want them, unless that size is do-able.

size is possibly doable. you can still submit it and I'll see what I can do. Date is Ok, I have crop, or shop it out.

EDIT: If anyone has any large pics they still want me to consider submit them in the size they are. Let me do the resizing.

I'll get back to you on that. ultimately its my decision, BUT I have to run it by webmasters and sponsors that are making this possible.

Dude, I think you can (and should!) make your own 12 month calendar with the girls I've seen you post with your car. I know I'd want to check it out

I think a mix of both will lead to good sales. I don't think having all stock or all modified would be a good idea.

If someone were to photoshop their car into a different location but remain the car intact (given it was tastefully done and of superb quality), would that be a useable picture?

To everyone who has posted or e-mailed me. I apologize for any delay. I am going through a medical emergency in the family at the moment. I will reply to all posts, emails, and pm's probobly later in the week.

Thanks for all the interest.

in the mean time. stock and modified will be considered. Its a TGO, NE3G, etc members calendar. not just a third gen calendar.

No offense, but you'd really lose marketability if it was modified only. I appreciate the hard work everyone puts into their cars, but stock appearance is very hard to keep these days also. I submitted 2500x2500 pics of my car, my wifes 93 and my dad's 82 Pace Cars to camarosource for his calenders and only modified cars were chosen. I personally appreciate both stock and modified so I would love to see both done equally.

Everyone raves about the 1st gen cars also. Most Camaro only calenders featuring 12 pictures will have 1 3rd gen, 6 1st gen, 2 2nd gen and 3 4th gen.

Share the space equally!

Well for this calender, i think it was going to be strictly third gens...but as far as that goes...it should definately be split between modified and stock cars.

One feature that i think would be cool to feature in the calender, is like info on the car and owner. Perhaps list the vehicles specs and or mods, and alittle about it and how it came to be. Just a thought...
