martinbg Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Thanks Colin. In my opinion it also should be in paramotormag (assuming the resolution is good enough for magazine production). Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weesplat Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Thank you everyone. Your write up was particularly good Norman thank you. Good photo's dont take the best kit, superb technic or exotic locations. They just take a bit of luck.Right place, right time and the camera in your hand instead of the glovebox. Cheers Col...

weesplat Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hi Sally Ann, If the club can make use of it happy to donate. Good idea the calander.

slim Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 If the club can make use of it happy to donate. Good idea the calander. How about it Simon club photo comp with the top 12 being used for a club calander or the like? Here is a link to a quick example I put together from my own collection of pictures (some I took, others not). This is very much just a rough cut to show what is possible. Be careful, it is a 15Meg download. In this form (10"x8" professionally printed, picture pages above the calendar pages) it will cost less than £20 delivered per copy. If people are interested then please send me high resolution copies of your best pictures and I'll put something together. I'm sure I can get the cost down for bulk orders but I've only spent 10 minutes on it so far. I'm happy to put some serious effort in if there is enough demand.

slim Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Geek stuff. It's what I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asquaddie Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Another easy way to do this is go to Asda Online. You upload your photos and then can pick from Calendars to mugs. I done a calendar of my dog and it look really good - all for 14.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I shall check it out. But nobody has sent me any pics yet so I'm assuming there isn't any demand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegasus1 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hang on to the idea mate - with a professional photographer on board and the Tip 2 Tip coming up, add in all the interest after the showing of Gilo and Bears incredible achievement- you just never know....

norman Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Slim, Have you thought about an academic year calendar - July to July? Most of us don't like the December changeover anyway and it makes an opportunity. Seasonal pictures required though. It could go really well, particularly for the right motivating influence....
