2022 CALENDAR WITH PICS

[jock156]

Good Morning Guys n Girls. Seeing as I was pushed into doing a calendar by Jingle below is my initial layout of pics for each month. This is just me putting some photos out there for each month, and is in no way confirmed. Please note I am NOT a Graphic Designer!

Please feel free to comment or add suggestions as you wish but lets not fanny about for days etc.

Price is £11 incl. postage first class to your door.

Hopefully have all the images AGREED by Monday then they can be sent to print and I will post them between Christmas and New Year!

So.................... Go on shoot me down!

The Cover photo is very much up for ideas I just stuck it in there for quickness. Each image has the month tagged JPEG.

I will post the last few under this post as I have exceeded the amount of images per post!

The last few. I've bagged October as its my Birthday month!

Looks spot to me. February, my birthday month, has my cars twin!

Right Jock, not shooting you down but someone’s got to go first, so why not :lol:

My immediate observation is the very heavy slant towards E85/6 pictures. Never having owned one I can appreciate their lines and beauty, July’s for one is a stunning picture and deserves to be in any calendar, but the same appeal isn’t there for me. I was hoping for more of a mix of all Z4 models, E89’s have one picture but they do have the cover and no G29’s included at all.

I know you’re doing this across multiple platforms and not just the forum, where there may be a lot more E85/6 owners than the other models, so if that’s the majority of what people who signed up are looking for, I have no problem with that, just not personally what I was hoping for

That all said not an easy job to try and keep everyone happy and no idea how you narrowed your selection down, hats off for doing it

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the comments!

Photos/ months etc now revised

Are we winning? :wink:

 

[Mr Tidy]

That covers most models pretty well, but do we really need to have 2 slammed and stanced ones?

That's 1/6 of the calendar and I somehow doubt 1/6 of forum members have cars like that!

 

[jock156]

Righto! I’ll remove the pink one

Someone post a pic to replace it

 

[Mr Tidy]

How about one of Tomscott's arty monthly competition entries?

A bit of red would brighten things up!

 

[jock156]

How about this one?

That's cos the G29 is ugly...best to face facts and accept the inevitable.

This one? Your call guys n girls

Which is, no matter how hard you tried you couldn’t keep up with me

 

[idej_z4]

As much as I am happy to see one of my photos in the selection (April), if you're going to do a calendar of random pics, you're probably best to speak to the person who took the photo so you can get a high res version of the picture (I'll happily oblige btw).

If you printing using forum pics, they're low res 72dpi and won't look great.

Personally would have picked the last 12 months photo comp winners (even though I'm I'm not in it) and keep it going next year.

Tough job to pick the right pics but great to see someone having a go. I get a Top Gear calendar for the garage each year but would much prefer a Zed one!

Yes we are

All for a frozen orange G29 for the cover but how about Obs Com’s one on stelvio pass rather than a press photo??

if it was that type of calendar then it would just be a scenic picture with no sight of the G29!

What he said

 

[Argyll Andy]

I would second this and it gives the monthly winners some recognition, also makes it easier if it was to be ongoing

Would even save you the bother of working out the months Jock :lol:
