Greytalk 2010 Calendar


Trudy

Recommended Posts

I'm going to quickly create a Dogs of GreyTalk 2010 calendar. I'll have it available by mid December so you can order it if you so desire and it can arrive in time to be used :)

If it is done sooner, I'll post the link sooner.

 

It will be created on MyCanvas and the calendar will be $19.95 (not sure if shipping is included, I didn't see a separate rate for shipping it, so it may be plus shipping as well).

 

 

I will post threads with a theme for pictures.

You can submit ONE photo. One, that's it. One.

For now, you can submit ONE for each theme as we won't really have time to collect photos and vote on them for each month or it will take too long.

I will NOT use a photo from a member more than 2x (and if I do just one photo for the month, that member will not have another photo show up in the calendar on the month pages). Depending on the photo response, I'll either decide on my own which ones to use this year or narrow it down a bit with some help and have GT vote on them. Either way - I won't be using a member photo submission more than 2x in the calendar.

 

Please make sure they are HIGH QUALITY RESOLUTION images. I will not use them if the resolution is too low for it to look good when printed.

You can submit a resized/reduced version, but if we opt to use the pic, it needs to be available as a high res image.

A full page image is 8.5x11 - so we'd be looking for 3000X2400 for images that size. I probably won't be doing many months with just 1 image, but still, the bigger the better.

If you are editing with some type of editing software, keep the editing to a minimum to make the pic show better, please don't add stuff or text or things like that - edit to fix your pic (I may do that as well if it seems images need that), or remove leashes, etc.

If you are cropping, keep it as big as you can for the image you have to submit to me if we select your image.

 

 

If you have questions ask, this may be a large learning experience for all of us :lol

 

 

 

For the 2010 version, I will likely start ONE thread and pin it and in that thread I'll post the links to the individual threads that way you don't have to hunt for them when they fall off page 1.

Even if you don't want to buy a calendar, feel free to submit pics. Buying one isn't a requirement for entering pics :)

 

 

 

For the pic submission threads - you can submit ONE image. ONE. Please don't comment on the submissions or quote pics in responses. On another board where this is done, one image was quoted 15 times with comments and nobody felt like they were allowed to submit anything after that (it was a great pic, but still, the comments dissuaded others from even bothering). So no comments about the pics or quoting them in your responses in the submission threads.

 

 

Photo submission should be of your PETS. The focus being YOUR greyhound(s). Please don't post pics of somebody else's dogs. If they are in a pic with your dogs, I'm ok with that.

Pics with other pets in the household are ok, but the focus should be GREYHOUNDS.

No formal racing pictures (by that I mean no pics of dogs racing at the track, but if your dogs are racing each other in the back yard, that's fine)

If you post a pic from a photographer, make sure you are allowed to do so before posting that pic.

 

 

For 2010, you can submit ONE image for every month. This will change a little when we do the 2011 one and can do a month at a time.

 

 

 

There is a 2010 calendar forum where all this stuff will be done :)

So if you have 12 themes, we could submit 12 photos, THIS TIME ONLY. Did I read that right?

yes.

 

 

2011 will work differently. Once you "win" a image, you can't submit for any following months (this will be by size of image "won" though). Each month, I'll announce who won and post the winning images and will post which members can't post images in the remaining months.

i will close the photo threads on 20 NOV. If you have photos to post in there, do it before then.

 

If you are having issues, please try the pinned threads for posting photos in the tech forum or in C&F and check out the tutorials in the help section.

If you are a supporter, put them there. Or create a photobucket act and upload pics there. I think I also have the calendar forum set up for direct upload as well if you are a supporter (I think).

If after trying all that and you are still having problems, start a thread and explain what you've tried and what/how it isn't working for you.
