Good Morning Fanatics

First off, thank you to everyone who participated in the calendar up to now.

With submissions closed this morning, we have a total of 77 photos submitted from the forum to be voted.

These photos mostly contributed from the Western Cape, Gauteng and Mpumalanga.

So to explain what I will be doing from here on:

1. I will edit the photos, doing enhancements to colour, sharpness and cropping for more effect.
2. Batching, all the photos will be resized and have a border put on them.

Mpumalanga managed to submit 13 photos of which they are decent quality, so I will be putting up three voting threads in the next 24 hours.

Western Cape, Gauteng and Mpumalanga.

The few submissions (2 or 3 pics) from the other provinces will be split equally in the Western Cape and Gauteng voting threads.

Each member will be allowed to vote once (Its a democracy this) and once the voting closes I will get begin designing the calendar, as well as sourcing prices for our members.

Forum Sponsors, if you would like your logo or advertising on the calendar please feel welcome to drop me a PM, once we have established costs I will let you know how much it will cost to have your banner on the calendar.

Otherwise, thank you everyone for the fantastic work and I look forward to the voting!

There were only 9 pictures submitted from KZN... I cant hold a vote for a 12 pic calendar with 9 cars... Mpumalanga managed 13 cars so as silly as it sound I can still do a vote for that...

ALso, the pics from Mpumalanga were really decent, some of the KZN ones I cant really use... :nonono:

Zabbo: The calendars cost money, our sponsors already provide discounts, their time with advice and assistance as well as their doing their everyday work. I think that expecting sponsors that already pay to sponsor this site to pay for calendars for free to members is a bit too much.

Andrew: Once the voting has been closed I will request the Hi-Res pictures and re-edit them for the calendar, for now it is not required.

Sorry gents, but the submissions are closed, if I accept pictures from one person everyone will expect to be included when enough notice was given as to the closing date.

Sorry guys. :(

So does that mean there's no KZN calender?

As mentioned above, there wont be a KZN calendar - However the images you guys did submit will be split equally between the Western Cape and Gauteng voting threads.

So the KZN members who still want a calendar can pick between the two calendars as if a KZN car is voted in it will be in those calendars.
