I wasn't able to participate for the '08 cause I just joined a few months ago. But I would like to be a part of a new calender by casting my vote. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

It would be nice if this could be organized in a civil manner this time. I wasn't aware of the drama last year, but it seems like someone should take charge of collecting the images then assign a few carefully selected volunteers to narrow down the images for the calendar. This way there won't be any pissing matches. I for one would volunteer to be on the image selection panel to help pick the final set of images for the calendar. Its only as difficult as you make it. I am also the art director for a comic book publisher called Dynamite Entertainment so I would have no problems lending my expertise to this project. I know we can all pick out a cool image but we need to make sure the quality of all images is up to par so everything prints as nice and clear as possible. __________________ Clever but we are clueless...

I didn't even enter I was so frustrated how it was turning out. but I think we at least learned alot to make a better attempt this year, if Steven decides to go ahead and have one again. I don't know if all this would be possible.... BUT - Ranking should be invisible to voters... and only people who were forum members on or before the date voting begins should be able to vote (maybe impossible, but would be ideal to avoid "cheaters") - To enter you should have to be a site supporter. - Should be judged on quality of photo, rather than who owns the car. It should be about getting the best product possible, not all the BS that was the 08 calendar. __________________ 11/97 Base 328Ti | | | 08-25-2008, 10:47 PM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | I really hope we do it again next year, I want another 318ti calender, hopefully this one will go smoother, was that the first year that happened? | | | 08-25-2008, 11:08 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | Quote: Originally Posted by Philly - To enter you should have to be a site supporter. | How about posts per day rather than having the "rich" people having their way?

But yea +1 for site supporters entry only. Last year was a mess i just hope this year it goes smoothly. Well at least this time we have some idea of what could go wrong. There should be a panel that votes on the pics instead of the general forum. Also the people in the panel can't submit a pic, just to be fair. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
