Hi, ETL and other members of the Vehicross family.
I am starting the similar project (VX-2009 calendar) on the Russian VX web site and have a request for you: can I ask ETL to submit all your photos to me, so that I could put them up for vote on Russian site, and include 2-3 of them in the calendar?
On my side, I promise to do the same and upload the Russian VX pictures for you once I finish collecting (4 weeks from this Sunday).... and, believe me, we have some amazing pics here in Russia as well :)
OK? :thumbup:
Hi etlsport.
I have a question about the parameters for picture submissions...
...in particular your new "rule" #2
Given we ALL have different views on what is "appropriate "......:cool:
....is it not equally "appropriate " to submit any and all pictures ,
and ALLOW the voting/calendar buying members of the forum
to choose which pics they would like ??
Just a thought....given my views on democracy....and whats "appropriate"! :p
TIA
jo
Jo, admit it, you're just a perv. :p
Bart
i would be ok with whatever photos... problem is i was informed by several (5-6) members last that they would not be buying the calendar if your photos from last year showed up.. its my goal to keep as many people as possible happy with this calendar.. i doubt anyone would not buy the calendar because theres no sexy women in wet clothes in it.. but i know there are people who wouldnt buy it because there are...
so in short.. I won't post up photos for voting that i think are not family friendly.. but if somebody else would like to take the lead on this project i will gladly send you all the submissions so far so they can take it over and run it how they see appropriate
Jo, I think you should make your very own, "special" calander. Have your model start fully clothed in January, and then by the time we get to December, its all off. :rolleyes:
:cool:
Bart
Hi etlsport...thanks for the reply.
Your efforts to get the pics voted on...and turned into a calander are awesome...
...and I have no wish to sound like I'm suggesting otherwise.
I guess I just wonder how many people would buy , if the calander was truly
open to a vote on all submissions.
I dont know how many calanders you sold last year...
....but I hope 5-6 people isnt a large % of your sales!
And I do know at least 10-12 that would be sold if any of my 'pin up style' shots
were lucky enough to be voted in.
(Aussie Pub regulars...where she works .....will snap 'em up! :rolleyes:...)
But Hey... last year my 'pin up' shots didnt even make the final cut...#13 if I recall :cool:
I dont want to make waves on this issue , especially given YOU are the one
putting in all the time and effort.
But I feel that a vote lets the majority speak...
....and that would be in line with your desire to "keep as many people as possible happy"
Anyhooooo.....I'm done...I've said my bit!
Thanks again for your input and time on this.
jo
"A vote lets the majority speak" ...........what kind of crazy idea is that? Where is that calander selling at.....AMERICA? lol
BTW.............everyone is a perv......the difference is not everyone is willing to admit it.
"I agree with JO. Put it out there and let the VX community make the decision if they want it in the calendar.
Peace.

I know I was aginst it last year for the main calenadar but I need one in my office at home. So Lets put it up for Vote since I thought we were doing two calendars anyhow. Lets add a third. I havent seen anything from Moncha about the pics Jo posted, should we take that one off site so we remain Family friendly?

"Other"
Eric, If your not up for handling the second one then I am sure someone will take it on.
Its a European thang.....!

Not me man...I've got a thick callous layer, then a layer of grease & grime, then dirt, & the outside, most visible layer, is sawdust & scabs.:smilewink
I dont mind takin it over. After all I have the voting system in place that we used last year and again the one we will be using again when voting is open.
BUT, I do stand with ETL on this one. The main calendar should be family oriented for the sake of this site. If we all want a second one that is more for our "garage" or home offices and stuff, we can do that through my site with the same voting system. But of course there will still be some "guide lines".
Our last years calander was a great hit with this community and I think that is a trend we should stick with here.
So let me know about the "other" calendar ideas and maybe I can get one started.
Hey, I already have a few dozens of pics for "Russian VX calendar" which I will be happy to exchange when I finish collecting (about two weeks from now)... hopefully, not to late for including a couple of best ones in your voting... and just not to depart from the recent exciting discussion too much, yes, there will be a few "hot" pics in there ;)
So I have been working on a "special" shot just for the calander. Here is what I have so far.

I still think it needs a little work. I really want to get star trails in there to but I think it will be tough with all the ambient light from the city...but you get the idea.
Comments? Suggestions?
Bart
Simplicity is not easily kept in this group :disturbed
Here's my take. Yes, a family/work safe calendar is appropriate to be sponsored by the site but, the other can be done and I will post it/them. It/they will however, have a strong warning about the content so as no one is surprised when ordering. I would suggest a fairly harmless cover graphic that can be used on all of the calendars for store thumbnail purposes.
This may be overkill but, can we make a link to the other calendar(s) submissions by request only so eyes that do not want to see nor eyes that don't need to see don't have to?

i just got my VX last week, so i've not had a chance to take him out for some pictures. this weekend is supposed to be sunny and beautiful here in seattle and i'll be taking some shots of my VX with the beautiful leaves in the background. I'd love to submit a couple of shots if that's okay?
Have I missed the deadline already?
oh dang...i just read the deadline on page 5. oh well...maybe next year.
~jody :grinp:
I'm not sure if the deadline for submitting pictures for this calendar has past. I do know JoFotoz is coming out with a calendar too! Maybe you could send some pics for his calendar.:)
Peace.
