Default 2017 928 Calendar - Submit your photos!

I just finished up our 2017 family calendar and it got me thinking......

Printing a one off calendar at any local laser print shop is relatively inexpensive. For example I just printed ours for about $16 each, and that's in worthless Canadian dollars. Ha Ha

So here is what I'm proposing.

Submit your best photos or monthy themed 928 photos. For example a holiday themed shot for December, maybe something wintery for January, and so on.

Once I have enough shots I may post a few polls to make selections.

I will then set up the calendar in my template, and will include all major holidays for Canada and the US, and of course all 928 events (if you have one I may not know about shoot me the date and event name).

I will need a few volunteers to help with proofreading.

The only snag is I won't be able to work on this until January. But if I get enough photos before then it shouldn't take me long to build the file.

The final file will be imposition, so the printer just rips it, double sided on 11 x 17 80 or 100 lb gloss or matte.

Parked until 2018. Thanks for all the pics and interest.

I figured out the problem with the thread - all should be good now for people to post up.

Andrew did this a few years ago, went over very well and the calendars were great!

One idea, maybe if we get a lot of submissions, make a few collage pages with multiple cars on them. If anyone likes this idea I can help make the collages.

Thanks Adam.

That's the plan, I already have several collage pages set up for our family calendar. More pics the better.

Thanks for fixing the thread.

Make a calendar of abandoned and neglected 928s. I have a pic of the parts car's shell as it was taken away on a flatbed.

Or only use official media release pictures of 928s that was repeased by Porsche. Maybe another calendar of the assembly line pictures. Anything but boring glamour shots of owner's cars.
