I had my wife choose 13 - she chose only one that was on my list. And did not choose my own photo. So I just uploaded two more, each very different. The more you play, the more you win!

First glance I keep thinking that is a sledgehammer in the hands.

Must be subliminal.

Again, the image size is 10x7 at 300 dpi which is 3000x2100 pixels. I can enlarge pics a little but not much. Some of the pictures being submitted are too small. The picture posted above for example is way too small. It is 946 x 532. To make it fit the 10 x 7 calenadar it would be cropped down to 760x532. That is over 300% enlargement to print and will look very mottled, fuzzy, and well yucky.

Also do not post what you expect me to use in the calendar here unless you are just showing everyone else a smaller version of the picture you are submitting. Please use the ftp site I am providing...It gives me your name the car model, color and name of photographer.

ftp.zipbang.com with login calendar password upload.

You can review the pictures that have already been submitted at www.zipbang.com/calendar
All I've done to the submitted picture is crop and resize to fit the 10x7 calendar space, the composition and cropping is how it will look on the calendar.
There is a link at the bottom to submit your pictures.

I just put in some pictures, not resized, hoping you will crop them as needed.

No Problem.

PLEASE Do Not rename the files after you upload them.
The information asked for in the upload is...
Car Owner Name: This is not the name of the Picture or Car.
Your Email Address: In case I need to contact you about the picture.
Color:
Year:
Model: meaning GT, SE, GTS, Euro, S, etc.
And Photographer's Name.

Under the left side just under the picture in small text it will have the text: "Photo by" and the name of the Photographer.

Under the right side under the picture will have the text: "Owner Name's Color Year Model" Example: Richard Davis' Iris Blau Mettalic 1994 928 GTS

Just sent three pics.
But rename them after I uploaded them.
Didn't know. Sorry.

If this can help you, the "...4524" is now "91 S4 Engine bay Bertrand.jpg",
...0921 is now "91 S4 Haley pic1.jpg"
...0922 is now "91 S4 Haley pic2.jpg!

I fingered it out. Actually I downloaded them to work on right before you changed the names. Sure was confusing to have the files I just downloaded go missing. I removed the rename link. Don't know why it was there in the first place.

You gettin all artsy fartsy, me likey.

Zoomed in picture of polished man hole cover on one 928 with reflection of another 928 in it would be cool.

Sorry, I am guilty of sin. I renamed 4 pictures. I am travelling now without acces to my pictures so I cannot redo them. Delete the files if the renaming is a problem, The pictures are renamed (I think):
1978 928 silhouette
1978 928 Pasha
928 all aluminium prototype
1978 928 work in progress

The original filenames were numbers, like IMG_3932; 5431; 4127; 2097; as I recall.

I'm only asking as I'm about to get some bodywork and painting done and could do before & after pics. Or perhaps even better- a "928s in Hawaii" pic with other 928 owners here...
