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

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.

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.

Photoshopping the background is one thing, Photoshopping the car is another

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.

That is kind of what I was aluding to. I think that photshop should only be used to do normal touch ups like removing door dings, rock chips, etc.

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.

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
