North Texas Calendar
Here's an idea for the Calendar...
Requirements: 1. Must be in the DFW Area 2. Put your SCREEN NAME and LOCATION inside the photo at the bottom 3. MUST be a HIGH RES photo 4. Give me an approximate MONTH the photo was taken in 5. We need top up and top down shots 6. We need pics taken throughout the year so all seasons/months are covered. 7. Let's try to limit the # of track shots, the more scenic the better. I know there's only 12 months in a year, however, it could be done where we post 2 cars per month... Post up your BEST pic on here, AND send me your BEST pic of your S2K to chaotic0ne01@gmail.com... If you know you want one, sign up here: 1. Chaotic1 2. Tunes2k 3. Psykotik 4. Turbosix (wants May) 5. Tomauto 6. Doug0716 7. PilotSi 8. Jspd 9. S2kMozo 10. Stickman (wants december) 11. MrKlean187 12. Eglogic (wants October) 13 Yellowstar 14. ThomasGXP |
count me in. Im going to ask someone to take a really good pic. of my car on the photo shoot day. lol
|
count me in to.. i was hoping to get all the guys together to do a group shot for one of the pictures though
|
POST AND EMAIL PICS.... My email account is still empty...
Calendar will not look good if all the pics in it were taken at the same time/place/season... |
I can get a higher res on if you want. This was taken by this guy from Austin
http://mercphoto.smugmug.com/ He specializes in rig shots http://tomauto.smugmug.com/photos/42..._QSJAZ-L-1.jpg I'll be looking through my other ones for the (other seasons) |
Nice pic tomato - I am having a hard time trying to decide between which of your pics should be in the calendar - this versus the pic I just saw in the xmas lights thread...
Anyone else? My email account is still empty... chaotic0ne01@gmail.com Later... |
So with my car and tomatos car, we have 2 months covered. Yippy
Maybe the group would like to see a Chaotic-Tomato 12 month calendar... Cmon folks it's not that difficult. I have enough photos of my own cars could make a calendar with just my own pics... Surely everyone has at least one great pic they'd like to see in it.... |
im working on it lol
|
What's the plan for this? Going to get actual calendars printed, or just print them on standard paper? Cost if they're not something we just print at home? I have one or two I can submit.
|
Print for $9.99/ea each at Staples...
Staples Oh and to be fair to everyone, one photo per person/car should be on the calendar |

Here's a few summer pics of JeffForSale! and mine...
http://www.daloi.com/GoldS2k/images/DSC_0102.jpg http://www.daloi.com/GoldS2k/images/DSC_0047.jpg and others from the set: Not really the seasonal background you're looking for though...:o www.daloi.com/GoldS2k Here's some from last winter. http://www.daloi.com/GoldS2k/2.jpg http://www.daloi.com/GoldS2k/3.jpg And me at the track: http://www.daloi.com/GoldS2k/4.jpg Dunno if they're anything you could use... :) GL mate! edit: BTW, Tomauto, your rig shot looks great! :thumbup: |
beautiful pics pilot...
|
Pilot, I am having serious issues trying to choose between pic #1 with the 2 S2000s and the 3rd pic and the golden sunset (love that pic)!
Both are calendar worthy, but I may opt for # 1 since there are two cars and we can knock out two form members with one shot. Thanks for sharing |
Put me on the list for a calendar! I will try to get a photo. Nothing exciting though since im rolling stock.

Here is my submission. Taken in May in Richardson on Alma in the parking lot of the new TI building before security asked me to leave.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3042/...dd307c44d1.jpg If accepted, I'll send the hi-res file. I don't want to clog up your inbox unnecessarily. :) |
Nice shot - please email it too.
|
Here are a couple from my gallery that you could use. I think the first one was a spring shot (March/April/May?), and the other was probably early summer... maybe June.
http://gallery.marcus-taylor.com/alb...0/DSCN0070.jpg http://gallery.marcus-taylor.com/alb...0/DSCN1582.jpg Too lazy to e-mail right now. If you decide to use one of them, send me a PM and I'll e-mail the full size version later. I think I might have a decent one at home w/ bluebonnets in the background (April?). |
Mxt:
I like the 2nd pic better - which do you prefer - and do you wish to be on the buyer's list? |
webmasterino,

may... PERFECT cause my bday is in may ;)
|
Where's the General?
|
wish wouldve taken off my parking permit haha
|
Love it!
|
Cool guys - I will give this a few extra days to see if we have any late submissions, and then get a serious order list going.
Price is $ 9.99 + tax so about 10.81 per calendar. |
My only comment is that it seems a bit boring to have the same "pose" for 6 different months.

I thought about that as well - I have one of my own car i was thinking to substitute, and this is why this is not the final version, I am waiting to see if I get any more submissions. :thumbup: |
My images are not print quality! They are 72dpi internet only photos. I will send you the print ready ones when you want me to. (when it has been finalized) You DO NOT have permission to publish those photos of mine as they are. They will not turn out the way I see fit.

i am going to try and get a pic of mine in the parking garage at my office. ill do it this week and send it over, if you like. i just did not have time to get it done this weekend. :(
|
October is perfect, also my bday.
|
Needs more track/autox S2k.
The natural environment of the S2k is on the track and I think it looks dull without one. In fact, the hottest S2ks IMO is when they are on the track at full song soaring towards redline... IMHO of course... |

I can photoshop that pretty easy. I do agree that the calendar needs more variety too. |

I have to say that Im with mxt_77 on that one. i say we should wait for a few more shoots. haha my car is in desperate need of touch up paint and bumper plugs I do agree that the calendar needs more variety too. I have received more pics, I just do not have a way to post them up. If you have a really good track pic, send it AND post it. |
how about some snow pics if we get lucky this year
|

You know come to think about it, we do not even have all colors represented.
We need: Suzuka Laguna Light Gray Do not have een one CR represented either... |
Everyone should get a custom calendar...
Like I should have 12 different poses of my car in my calendar...LOL Can't have enough of her....don't know about everyone else...haha Specially the pics Tom took, I mean I cannot believe what difference good pics can make....like daiyum!!! :D |

LOVE that 2nd pic man - it's gonna make it
|
:) Thanks, although my photography skills are mediocre at the very best. :p
Just found the price. Put me down for one :) |
I dont have an S2K but I might want a calendar with some of those cool shots. Are you going to order a few extra, or do you need an accurate count before you order them?
|
i want to get in this calendar but i have crappy pics i need a photoshoot or someone to take goods pics of my car. psikotic has seen my car ask him if im eligible
|
caesar has a nice car.. definately calender worthy.. just do a shoot and post up pics.. they'll put it in

If we have any stragglers at the end, I could share the pic files and they can submit the pics to Staples themselves. Guys, I am almost to the pont where we have 12 different poses, not just the lake either. I need to get to a PC thats not at work so I can post them up (all image hosting sites are blocked here). |
Here's another idea...
Since we have so many photos of the cars at the lake this past weekend, I could technically have Tom crop say 6 of the single car photos together into one pic so we can cover 6 cars in one month without the repetitive boring pose. Right now, I have alot of emails with alot of different poses, and no way to post them. Trust me, they are good too. I have unique pics from Mxt, Doug, YellowStar, Pilot/jeff4sale, Tomauto, Wildncrazy, Phantom, Eglogic, Stickman, Webmasterino, and Juice04. So we have 10 months covered with unique pics. Then I can crop 6 cars into one pic and cover Turbosix/Mozo/Rwd Rkt/Psykotik/Preston/?? in a single month... OR... Another alternative is to make it an 18 month calendar... Yalls thoughts? :popcorn: |
Hey, I recognize the cover photo, that is over by the TCJC campus near Saginaw. That area is my old stomping grounds when I was in high school!

Here are a few I took back in October.
http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/a...Pics/Good1.jpg http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/P1040554.jpg |
I like both pics Jon - Thanks
In the 1st one i can see a non-s2000, so the 2nd is a better choice IMO. It looks like this is shaping up to be an 18 mo calendar |
Love the bridge shot!
Would anyone be interested in an S2K mosaic of all the photos submitted? Here is an example. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3145/...f3dc5b9d_m.jpg The mosaic tiles are just some random pictures I have on my work computer. The one I'm proposing to the group would consist of S2000s only, of course. Broadband connections, click here. For slower connections, click here If there is any interest in this, I'll work with Chaotic to see what he'd like to do with the final image. |
some old pics i found laying around
http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/3...6jan028mr8.jpg http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/4997/dsc00172uj2.jpg http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/7541/dsc00173nz4.jpg http://img55.imageshack.us/img55/3939/dsc00181cs0.jpg wish i could find the rest of the pictures the day i waxed this http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/8...ture025ug3.jpg all pretty crappy though nothing special or shopped, taken with a point and shoot mostly spring shots, the wax pictures i have were taken in the summer |
Here is a mosaic I put together from the images choatic displayed for the calendar. If any of you would like your car to be the primary image, PM me. I just thought this would be cool, but I may be alone in that thinking. :brokehrt:

For consideration. Some great pic's so far. Need more track/driving pic's for my taste however.

|
Now we're getting some great pics... I will be out of town between 12/19 and 12/22, but I will take all submissions and upload them to a photo hosting site when I return.
I have some great pics that have not yet been seen as I have no access to photo sites from work - wait till you guys see them... We'll have a calendar for 18 months easy now... :thumbup: |
