Sorry gang. I've got to pair down my involvement for now. I would be happy to share my InDesign calendar template if anyone wants it.
Peace out.
Peace out.

I did a calendar for 5 years... I preferred to pair the cars with gorgeous women, but by the 5th year it wasn't even a break even proposition... Oh well...I did enjoy shooting the cars and the girls. Maybe I will do that again in the future. I do have enough shots to make a few more years of calendars, but still the cost is high to have them printed in volume...even only 100...

Did a 928 calendar 1 year Sans High Heels. Asked first to make sure I did not offend or take away from James' calendar sales. Sold less than 100. And several bought 2 or 3. Gave the profits to a local home for stray dogs called Free To Live. It was a whole $75.
Was only able to print them so could sell for $20 because:
1.) Was layed out and provided a PDF inpositioned ready to print. All they had to do was print.
2.) They were stapled down the seam instead of spiral bound.
Did an ftp site for people to upload pictures with info like name year etc.
A good picture should be at least 3000x2500 pixels.
Peferrably bigger with space around the car so it can be cropped to fit the calendar format.
Many were just too small to look very good on a calendar.
Also did a web site for people to vote for their 12 favorite and put the 12 with the most votes in the calendar.
And another using paypal to take orders.
Just have not had time to put together another one.
