Is that extra fee for each calender they print?
If it's only a one time fee, then the calender prices are the same, I'd like to get them added.
I'll never write things in a calender. If it's a one time fee, I'll pay it for the group.
I'd like to add birthday's and any other days that may be important to the group.
Weddings , anniversaries

That's my $.02, which may turn into $20.

Zoo, you interested in going on a photoshoot tomorrow. You could go to the "sunset" spot here in Fontana....near Cherry and the 210 freeway, or come with Lesper, Snowfl8k and I to the refinery on Pepper tomorrow. We need more shots of you and Krazie....Krazie, you up for that?

kwescott

I would assume it for each one they print, but I can check. But, if it turns out that it is for each individual calendar, I guess you could customize yours a little more.

I should start a collection jar, for all these .02 I'm getting

AND SEVENSTOCK 9?

kwescott

I totally agree, but just wanted to post it to see what he thought.

kwescott

Krazie...I need some feedback on this...or some more pics that you would like to subsistute.

kwescott

What do you think Snow? What does everyone else think of the outline on the small pics. I think it looks good.

Also after looking at the pictures I think they might turn out better if they were daytime, sunrise or senset but not night pictures everything kind of gets lots and the thumbs do not pop off the page that much.

Keith almost perfect Are you 100% on the background image...i think the thumbs need to be smaller to leave a larger gap between them..it looks cramped. Black could be a little smaller and consistant in width

kwescott

Nope, not 100% convinced on the background...but this was the one I had up, so it was easiest to modify. I also like your idea of trying to have different shots...I liked my tree shot one better, but don't want to have the same shot as Jedi..haven't received any of his photos yet...he said he had some for most of us on his camera. Still waiting for that post.

what time do you want to plan the evening at the refinery for tomorrow. Reason I ask is that I'm trying to set something up with Vipers as well...haven't heard from him yet for the time he is available. I also want to meet up with Cesar tomorrow morning for sunrise pics up at crestline.

I think I'm done for tonight...we'll get more work done on this stuff tomorrow

not sure what time i will post when if i get my car, they say tomorrow evening but i will always be skeptical about body shops ttyl

I like the idea of using the B&W for the center (with color car) and the 4 smaller pics.

Question for everyone though: If we have EVERY month with the 4 small pics @ the top, won't that make the calendar a bit monotenous? How about moving those pics around? Maybe they would look better on the bottom for some months, or all on one side, etc.
I think there needs to be a common pattern (all pics on ONE side; top, bottom, left, or right) but maybe a little variety?

Keith, I think you and I might benefit from putting the pics on the bottom...won't block my tree OR your sunset you're trying to capture, etc.

Just a random idea. Thoughts?

random pics I took of your car @ the last meet...

Keith,

AWESOME job on my pics.


Can we change the first pic to this one...

vipers

keith.... if possible, i was thinking maybe 1-2ish .....but whatever time is good for you, what do you think about taking pics of my car in front of orange groves? i think that would be bitchen, and all the orange groves are only a few miles from my house...... i pm'ed you my phone #.......so if you get a chance, go ahead and call me, that way we can figure everything out! thanx

FastRX8

Keith -
I like the borders. I think someone (Snow???) suggested using the color of the car as the border. When you have a chance, try mine or speeds w/ the thumbnails bordered in yellow.

I agree w/ Jedi. It'd be nice to have a variety on location of the thumbnail shots.

If someone is really excited about their interior, maybe they can take a inside shot as their main pic.

Like this.



Or like this. (not our car, but you get the idea.




I should be out of the house by 5:45am. If you're planning on meeting me, call.
I don't mind going Wednesday and Thursday if you can't make tomorrow. If I can't stay long enough tomorrow for the sunrise shots, I'll plan on going into work a little later on Thursday so I can make it. Like I said, I need to leave Crestline area at 6:30 to get to work on time.
I'll be in Vegas Thurs night-Mon so I have to have them done by Thursday afternoon.

*yawn* going back to bed for 2 hours.

sorry guys i haven't been in this convo at all. been really busy these past few days and what not. lotsa reading i did just now too for this one thread. I also am one for the idea of the thumbnails being pix of our mods, and the center pic being a pic of just the car. I was thinking that for the cover pic on the calendar we can get all of us together and have a group pic as has been stated previously (don't remember if it was this thread or the san berdoo thread). I also think that a nice action shot (like a burnout or just driving along the freeway) would add more to a pic (like pic #3 on post #19).

jedi: i really liked that one pic you have of my interior! bitchen pic .

keith: one of my fav pix of my car so far is the 2nd one on post #8. I like how it just captures just the right front fender along with the rim in the fore ground, and then the whole valley in the backgroung. i like how you did my SN font and font color in the lower left hand corner of the first pic in post #75. you also have all the pix of my car i have taken w/my digital camera when i emailed them to you a while back. all the other pix i have of my car have been posted here on the forums. Also, on thursday, so far i do not have anything planned (although impromptu events are frequent), i would like to hit up that sunset spot so i can have more pix of my car (or you can let me know where it's at so i can go take pix myself).

KC and Ceasar: i really like your B&W with car still in color pix that were taken. the B&W makes the yellow of your guys' cars stand out phenomenaly. I think the same would go for zoo tender and lesper4 as red would get the same/similar effect.

I still have to go through my pix and see what i have from everybody that i will post as my suggestions. Though, i'm not the PS super skilled dude here, i think i'll leave that to keith, Casey, and Loren for their imaginations and/or our suggestions to come up w/stuff

hahahahah......i like copy-paste. works so well when reviewing this thread from where i've started from making comments from all kinds of different pages .

xrider: Do you ever sleep?

Posting @ 4:54 am...damn man, that's commitment to your fellow RX-8 friends!

I'll email you that pic of your interior when I get home tonight.
PM me with where you want it sent.

xrider01

lol.....i do sleep, just not a lot....i have sleeping problems (getting to sleep at least) . but when i do sleep, i sleep .

i already saved the pic onto my comp, but if you want to send me the original, my email is already in my siggy, just add @gmail.com

KrazieKave

Keith I like I like that shot, but i would like to (if it is possible) to make the big picture ALL color, so that the view of the city will be in color as well.

as for the thumbnail pics, i'll get some different ones.

thanks

KrazieKave

or maybe can we use this pic as the main pic?

Well no car today but it should be tomorrow. I did some scouting instead, the pictures would look better at night becasue of the lighting except for the train yard. The fuel refinery with the open flame is no more but i am yet to see what we can take at the facotry in fontana near the new Arco. You can also get a close shot down nearr teh track of pepper but you have to drive on a dirt road. ?

Keith here is one to get you started

NOT I XRIDER

xrider01

so are we still doing the photo thing tonight?
