    Yes, they bought straight from the zazzle site.
    I just now finished my front cover. Not sure I like it but I'm limping along using a scanner that seems to have a mind of it's own. Also using my work laptop cause my big gun is at the shop.
    I can't get over the pc issues this week. I just got off of the phone with Wells Fargo. They closed my online banking cause they say my online accnt was comprimised. Took them at least an hour to attempt to explain to me why I couldn't log on. Transfered me like 5 times too.
    Anyway, I hope I'm ready on Sunday. I just gotta come up with a month page, unless I can use the back cover... ?
    It's snowing outside and this hot chocolate is goood.:coffee:

    I agree! Each of you do 6 months, one cover and the back page. Design and number of cars per month up to each of you how you decide to do it. Maybe alternate months, Blu do one, Matt the next, and so on. I promise to try to get you some fresh pics of mine this year, after I repaint it again in the spring. I am not satisfied with the looks of mine just yet, needs a few more coats and the black accents on it still.

    It's done. Do you want to create the poll thread? I have hesitated asking higher ups. I kinda hoped that maybe one would volunteer.
    I would rather post my campaine tomorrow. I'm going to bed in a few minutes.

    I guess I am looking at this as who is helping who lol. If he gets the project then I am more than willing to help. If I get it than I am sure I will ask for some of his tallent. Sorry you felt nobody liked your idea. Your idea is my plan behind the scene :D.
    One reason I hope to get it is so that the calendars can be found with previous issues, incase someone wanted to get one from previous years. I don't know that anybody will but who knows the future? Since I bought my first calendar I have bought them and can apprecieate them. So, if the calendar can be made and found at the same site or from the same person maybe it will be easier to obtain and/or manage. I hadn't thought about all this before I created this thread and that is because I simply want to share the opportunity of creativity. I turned it into a "campaign" and that's what happened. If this is all too much thinking then I can accept that.
    The plus here for ME is that I think Matterick is possibly going with zazzle as the selling site. I will be able to search that site for the calendar even if I am not the creator.

    I think it's a great idea and for me getting it at Zazzle is what i would prefer as i have very little faith in buying anything over the internet but i took the risk with buying Blugene's great 2010 calendar and had no problem ordering it. They came before Christmas in great condition and i would order from them anytime. The idea of 2 or more people making the 2011 calendar to me sounds cool too. I think it will make it a different looking calendar then the last two years and i like the idea of that too.
