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

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 :(

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. :wink:

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.

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??????????
