ADMIN - CALL FOR PHOTOS! -Submit your pics for the 2020 CS Calendar! - Deadline Oct 23, 2019

admin · 09/21/2019, 09:00 AM

Once again this year has flown by and it's time again for the CS.com wall calendar!

So here's the official call for entries. Please submit your photo no later than Wed Oct 23, 2019.

We'll all vote on the photos and the top 12 will be used. They'll be on sale in time to get them for Christmas gifts. If you've been in previous calendars you can submit again, but not the same or similar photo. Please submit only one photo.

To submit your pics email me at cs.comcalendar@gmail.com (has more space than my normal email)

OK, here's the catch... Your photo has to be a minimum size in order to print clearly on a full size calendar. It needs to be 1800x1200 pixels minimum (obviously bigger is better). Basically a 2.0 Megapixel or better digital camera or phone will work (if set at it's highest resolution). Any lower resolution and they just won't print well. Even the largest photos in the Gallery are too small. Sorry! And please don't take a smaller pic and change the resolution to bump it up to 1800x1200. It doesn't work that way unfortunately. The original needs to be at that resolution.

Thanks in advance for all the great photos I expect to get! :)

For those that don't have one hanging on your wall from past years, here are a few samples:

Hi Jon. Just wondering how many pictures that you have received so far?

Relax, there's still time. I haven't even chosen my picture yet but will submit one. Same for others I'm sure.

Just trying to keep this on everyone's radar.

Haven't been here in a while, glad I dropped by. I will certainly send 1 in.

GT/CS S Code · 10/04/2019, 11:48 AM

Just sent you a photo Jon ...

68 special · 10/06/2019, 09:59 PM

I also sent one in, Jon.

Thanks,
Bret

So...ten days to the deadline. How are the numbers looking Jon?

admin · 10/16/2019, 07:26 PM

6 photos submitted so far. Hopefully the rest of you are procrastinators!

stangfan · 10/27/2019, 02:04 PM

I'm guessing that there were not enough pictures submitted this year for a calendar contest. What a shame.

admin · 10/27/2019, 03:04 PM

Sorry. I meant to update this earlier. We do have enough, barely. We have 12 plus 2 more who submitted photos that were too small, but they're looking for higher resolution originals. I was going to give them until tomorrow and then proceed.

I was trying desperately to have my Black GT/CS presentable for photos, but alas, I just couldn't make the deadline. So sorry.
