Australian Amusement Fanatics Calendar

[Hurricane]

Well, as people have been talking for a while about doing it. I have decided to make a calendar using CafePress. If anyone has any photos that I could use for the Calendar it would be much appreciated, feel free to email them to me at danielharmer [at] live.com.au

Great idea, would be good. What sort of photos are wanted?

[princess]

Good ones

[Top Gunner14]

Obviously haha

[Paulie123]

Wait untill after RES! Im sure HUSS will get some good ones there. Or anyone else who does a review.

[Top Gunner14]

I'll try and pull some good ones out of the hat

[Hurricane]

What i'm trying to do is have 1 company featured per month. The calendar would be from July 09 - June 2010

EG:
July 09 would be Bells. 3 photos of 3 rides. No Limit, Music Trip and Cha Cha
August 09: O'neils. Ranger, Wave Swinger and Rainbow

That sort of thing. I'm having to find some software etc online like CafePress that will do it. But they only do 1 photo per calendar

[princess]

We already have some excellent photos, Zamperla, Matt, Huss, Topgunner, why not go through and pick out what you think are your best, then take it from there.

Huss is a graphic designer (in training?)

[Hurricane]

It's not splitting the photos that I'm having the problem with. It's just stupid Cafe Press. It will only allow me to have one photo per calendar. So basically it has one photo at the top and each month rips off sort of thing.

[CoinKing]

cant you make calendars using powerpoint templates?

[HUSSRAINBOW]

powerpoint lacks creativity.... we would need something insane... not just your boring standard calendar..... and yes im a graphic artist (in training)... not too hard to make something look insane!

[Hurricane]

Yeah, I don't want something tacky and cheap... Well still cheap to buy but you know what I mean!

[katestow77]

i thought you were going to put the poll up to see which design every1 likes hurri. i hope every1 likes it and u can get the calendar off the computer and into press.

If you want one in the meen time the showmans guild website calender is nice.
Not sure about it's technical do-dahs or what programs blah blah, but I like it.

[katestow77]

i can say that i havent seen this calendar
what it look like

[katestow77]

hey poeple ,

just had a look at the showmens guild calendar doesnt look to bad just a pity i could only find the 2007 calendar but still really impressive

[HUSSRAINBOW]

we could better that....

even some professionally done calendars are shocking!

[princess]

Yes we can do better, we have some fantastic photos, what I also want to know is why they dont, at least have their major shows written on their calendars, Capitals, bigger regional shows??????????

[katestow77]

i must agree we can do better than that YES the photos look ok but i no that there are better photos out there taken by us members.

[princess]

Not just the photos, calendars are also good for information!

[katestow77]
