Well, that doesn't sound easy...
Guessing they don't make a calendar collage program up to your standards...
You should work on that... next year.

There's still time to get your photos submitted !!!!!
A little over a week to get your photos submitted

So just out of curiosity, when you said a couple weeks ago that you "didn't have enough submissions to generate a calendar"....just exactly what in the eff were you talking about? Surely you haven't received 680 pictures in 2 weeks?

Pretty darn close.
Interesting stats (depending on how big of a geek you ar):
- I had one member send in 125 photos
- 237 from another
- we have received 209 photos that are too small to use on the size calendar we are producing
- it's hard to be 100% certain but it appears that there about 140 photos taken prior to 2018
- almost triple the number of triple the number of Slingshot community (friends/family) gathered together over last year
- fewer modification photos than last year
- fewer "lone" photos than last year
- right now, we've got about 730 photos submitted to narrow down and edit

Damn, @Jdin wasn't kidding.

That ought to be an easy call, then....or did you cut those *before* you printed the 700 pics?

Those get bounced automatically? Or do you do each one individually? Like ones drom last Christmas, after the submission date from last calendar?
-
FYI - 2019 CALENDAR PRICING INCREASE PREVIEW
Final numbers have not been crunched but it looks like the calendar price will increase to $30 or $35 [international shipping may have an additional charge] and we will use the same size, paper stock, and print quality standards as last year with the same number of pages.
I'm considering ordering 250 this year - first offering will be to forum members for a limited time then they will be offered on Facebook and Instagram until sold out

Included in the numbers - I want to be able to use as many as possible

Not automatically, but I try to remove the ones that have been submitted in previous years or that are a couple years old
I do allow those taken last year in November and December.
I'm still in the running for the cover this year!!!!!! Fingers crossed -
I will take 3
Is there an old fart discount?
I get on at Golden Coral without asking - I don't think that is a compliment -

Like I said on one of the other threads...for my business --- if your older than me you will get a discount. Ross, your a youngster so you probably shouldn't use that approach.

I thought they were more last year. Whatever, you're gonna sell a bunch.
Are you taking preorders? If you sell, say, 200 in advance, I would think you'd want to order 400 or so.
WHEN DOES THE PRESALE START? TAKE MY MONEY!

I will likely run the forum sale from November 20 through December 1 with calendars shipping around 12/15
Always willing to do a second run if we sell out. If we sell out before the order is made to the printer then we will double the order
PS. You can always send me money if you have too much LOL

Dunno about that, but I might buy you a calendar....

I'll definitely take one.

I've been waiting for the trees to change enough here. If there's still time I'd like to submit this week. If not that's ok!
