Just to note. A picture of your bike parked in your driveway does not make for a good calendar picture. Big Dave has a post somewhere with instructions for taking a good bike pic.

Yup and washing on the line or scrappy building material etc in the background does not cut it either - I was stunned at how much of this I used to get with submissions...

edit: Even got one with the dog taking a dump on the grass next to the bike.... errrr ok!

You plumping for 300dpi, landscape only, minimum 3000pixels wide etc? Or you just going to sort them out when they arrive?

**jrandom** · 9th July 2008, 10:17

Presumably you preferably want the raw digital camera data, and any cropping, colour adjustment, etc will be done during layout?

**Big Dave** · 9th July 2008, 11:09

I'd prefer to look at lower res proof images first (say 1024px) and make contributors aware that the full size image has to be available if it's selected.

If you don't have the wherewithal to resize and stuff - then just bung it through anyway.

Not my call though.

I think the concept and the idea is great and the people do an amazing job ..............blah blah ( get that outta the way)

But

maybe not a GN250.
Is it a calender for bikes or egos? if bikes I want to see some inspirational bikes race bikes, action shots, project bikes completed that look great, whitetrash knee down, parking a GN250 infront of a lake and making it april well snoooooooorrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeee (not sure if that was the shot but thats my memory)

never brought a calender as they arent very ........well ........cool to say the least.

So make them cool and they will sell.

just my 2 cents
