Yep. This way we can vote during October and spend November filling in the details of each photo. __________________ ...steven

I know this might sound off the wall, but just remember that I am still relatively new to this forum. I have an almost bone stock 318ti. I am a photographer by trade and have pretty good photoshop skills. You want just unadulterated photos of the cars and photoshoped backgraounds, or can we "touch" up the cars too? I am just saying this because I can turn my bone stock 318ti with hubcaps into a DTM styled racer. Just want clarification, sorry if i am thinking too deep into this. | | | | | 09-05-2007, 04:51 PM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: maritimes Posts: 1,433 |
wouldn't the calendar be a tad odd if in june you have a crazy photoshop like above, then switch to july and have a regular pictured TI?
i think it would kind of throw off the theme a little, JMO. __________________ 11/97 Base 328Ti

We all have to vote on the winners anyways. If you don't like the photos just don't vote on them. Makes sense, right? __________________

I personally like the true natural pictures for the calendar. Now for photoshop then that should be in its own league/calendar.  | | | | | 09-05-2007, 07:59 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Ferndale, MD Posts: 462 |

So if it is 1 entry per person is it proper for 1 person to have their friends enter pictures for them? Maybe it should be 1 entry per car. | | | | | 09-11-2007, 06:46 PM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 |

A lot of the entries I have seen are mostly frontals or don't have 318ti visible, how important is this? I'm going to do my photoshoot hopefully before the weekend  __________________
