Haha, Bob, I'd probably let Elvira pass on this month, lol. Better than a zombie IMO.

[57Corvette]

LOL ... i agree. I think I use her in at least one photo every year. She was at the Culver City Car Show in May, but not in costume. I wanted to take her photo, but they wanted $10.00......so I passed.

Great stuff as always guys!! Calenders actually sell pretty well as has been found out on a antique tractor site I'm on. Last year sold out quickly and this year is looking to double the order. Count me in for a calender or three if you can get it off the ground. This would be a good fund raiser for the site.

Yes, they are very good and some places actually do all the shipping and more in one place in great color and weight of paper for a decent price. I tried outsourcing and looking for some that we could get "on the cheap" but found the price was immense. The cost of custom calendars is very expensive, I used Cafe' Press and it was perfect for the needs, somewhat expensive for some peoples tastes but the maker sets the price for the basic and add's an extra amount to bring in some revenue. I personally over the years have sold thousands without a gripe from anyone except for Ford, we fxed that though, lol.

This does have to be done as I've found by thanksgiving if it will succeed. The Cafe' Press Calendars are guarantee'd to ship within a few days.

It's all up to Jon in the end, he's the owner.

Just a reminder guys, the contest will be ending within a few days, I know everyone has something stored for this and we are still looking for some last minute entry's to get in. 57 Corvette "Bob" has a date set for the 26th at midnight, sounds scary, lol. If anyone needs more time, I'll allot for one more day if all feels it's good for the competition.

Let me know in this thread if you feel you need more time.

Sincerely Mark

[DeuceRon]

Well, it's the 27th and unless otherwise noted, I guess this competition is officially over..

Time to vote and get an idea for the next one!!

Ron..

[57Corvette]

Bob

I was going to wait till midnight but as you guys have seen, it's pretty much done, look soon for a new contest voting poll to be up soon. Should be a hard vote IMO. Good luck to all !!

[DeuceRon]

I have an idea..

How about the winner of each month's contest gets to pick the topic for the following month?? This way, I won't have to worry about it

Just a thought....

LOL .... you kidder you. That's the way it is Ron, the winner will pick the subject for November.

[DeuceRon]

Sorry folks, I honestly didn't know that.. Guess it was a good idea though since you're already doing that!!

[steelcity6]

Awesome stuff guys...Im gonna go sharpen some pencils. I wish I had those art programs, but I know they are expensive.Hope to have something in for this month.

[DeuceRon]

It's one thing to have them, it's another to know how to use them! I bought PhotoShop Elements when it was on sale at Best Buy for about 60 bucks. There are a ton of good tutorials on the net, I think that once I use it enough, I'll learn how to make some interesting artwork..

It's gonna take a while though..

Hope to see some of your work next month!
