Actually, I talked to sparticus a few times this year about it. I tried not to spearhead the calendar last year, but I ended up being the only person who worked on it. It was better then previous years according to everyone.

I started working on the new calendar in January. If you want Missy to do it, I'll bow out. It's a PITA to make a good quality calendar. I've got no objections.

i simply assumed to send everything to DTN because he was the one that did last years, which came out good (EXCEPT THERE WAS NO HOLE FOR A NAIL TO PUT IT ON THE WALL). lol

so. it was an assumption on my part...

How bout we all discuss it in the moderator forums?

We can also ask for opinion here. I just don't want to end up with a banned member with all of the work "done" and all of the images, and us trying to redo it the last second.

And pictures of my ex-girlfriend (she broke up with me about a month before the calendar was printed) were used for my month without my knowledge.

Sorry, you were one of the last 5 COTMs to send a high resolution image last year within the last few weeks of the project. I was in a panic at that time trying to collect up as many images as I possibly could, creating a folder for each COTM winner filled with any and all good pictures of those final 5 that I could scavenge as possible. Everyone else got just their HR picture and any good/accurate/non-watermarked/high quality COTM entry pictures used.

Also, your picture was too wide, and rather then stretch it upwards, or leave tons of white space, I added a filmstrip of pictures at the top. I didn't realize that until the first draft was made of the calendar and I started writing all over it what needed to be done.

You can always tell friends that it was a "model". People who didn't know cars very well always said that yours was their favorite and that I should have made those 2 smaller pictures bigger. lol

I didn't know it would be a problem. Sorry about that bud.
