Just looking at the home page at the begining of the website and there is only the 2006 calender :sad:............What happened to 2007????
It's probably to late to have a 2007 calender now so why don't you get the 08 calander up ready for us to download???
-
Are you going to make one? :rolleyes:
-
im not sure whether this has been mentioned before, or if there was something along a similar line. But people could post pics of their car up and after a given time, say 2 weeks, there is a vote on whos cars get put into the calender
-
Can i b july :grin:
-
sounds cool, id download it :cool:
-
How about a mix with the dubbabes thread so we have a calender of members cars with there girls? and I'll pose in a santa hat for December to keep the ladies happy! :laugh:
-
We could get a good group pic at Brands next week and enter that!!!
-
I have done one of these before, quality is good and they get cheaper the more you buy.

Ohhh id forgoten about Brands, well reminded.
Must bring a working camera this time lol
-
We could have a submit you best picture comp, no photoshop jobs though.
or readers wives styleee, get you missus/fella to bikini it up and pose on the bonnet.
Or you and your golf?
Action shots, donuting golf/golfs in motion?
A golf and a land mark in your town or city (well known one that people will know.)
what do you think?
-
sounds pretty cool, lets get the pics in any particular deadline needed?
-
I like the sound of this......
A golf and a land mark in your town or city (well known one that people will know.)
Say Sunday deadline for pics (although some might have an autum feel if they are new pics. need some with snow, daffodils etc maybe to show different times of year, anyone got a pic of a golf on the beach enjoying their hols?)
whos running this thread/calenders?
-
Awesome idea!
Nick

I think we need...
2x Mk1
2x Mk2
2x MK3
2x MK4
2x MK5
2x Special very modded
makes it fair for all then.
-
hehe only just seen this. looks like there could be some competiton with your calender and the Volksgirls calender :tongue:
-
There's a Volksirls calender !?
-
i wanna b a specially modded one :smiley: i like the sound of the girly clander :evil:
-
I think we need...
2x Mk1
2x Mk2
2x MK3
2x MK4
2x MK5
2x Special very modded
i think this will have to come down to votes as i'm sure there will be alot of people who would want their car in the calender.
also no offence to anyone, but the photo's should be spot on, cars should be as clean as they get and as professional as possible.
-
i was my car like twice aweek lol (i get paranoid incase there are stonechips on my front under the dirt lol) :rolleyes:

Cool - I'll enter my MK3 in the Mk1 category then! :grin: He he (Sorry couldn't resist)
I see what Joes saying. Although I think it's a great idea in principle Dave, it might not work out with the submissions that come in. For instance, If you only get 3 pics of Mk4's , do they HAVE to use 2 of them even if only one of the pictures is up to standard? Also it seems to me most cars on here are Mk2's and 3s (might get corrected on that, but they look like the busiest sections to me - and they're what I seem to mostly see in signatures?) so it stands to reason more pictures of those will be submitted, so is it fair that some one will have less chance of being picked even though they have a great car, just because it's more popular on the site than another?
P.S. I'm not just saying that to get my car a better chance - I know mines not up to stanard so I won't be submitting!
-
we'll just have to see how it go's, we'll run the picture thing for a week see what we get and then decide, we can submit a proposed layout and then get an idea of numbers of who wants a calender, if only a few peeps want one then its not worth the trouble.
If all goes well I can order on mass from photobox and get the monies in through paypal or other + postage (all at cost mind)
This will take a few weeks to sort but it will be a 2008 calender so we have time.
Get posting the pics, we can give more time if people need it or if there is an event coming up that would give a good photo op. A group pic with various golfs would be good.
Let me know of any issues but get posting them pics.
-
just to show, I was going to get a pic in front of this building in MK, any one know it?

Not trying to brag by posting 3 pics up. Just not sure which one I like. So let the forum decide. :undecided:
-
Theme is car + local landmark

I found this in the MK2 section and is the sort of thing I was thinking of.

I live in Selby and dont have any landmarks unless you include the local swamp?? Spose i could use the local boat yard...ideal for a mk3 :grin:
-
Thanks R98 HUF :smiley:
I dont have any pics of the car with a landmark.... But I could do a photoshop edit, but that would be cheating :angry:
***Looks through photobucket account for scenic images***
Nope guys. The only other pic i have is this one: But nothing historical about it etc. It was taken near Cape Point though :lipsrsealed:

Mine at the bottom of Santa Pod strip should be on there for a top photo I reckon. :wink: Although is was taken by someone else, so may have a copyright on it...........but it's my car after all I guess.

What, from pics of cars that belong to people on here?
-
Gibby that picture is the dogs b*ll*cks!
-
Looks like this isn't going to happen then :undecided:
Only 5 different cars posted is a bit of a stretch to fit in 12 months of pics :sad:
-
sorry for not replying sooner. the thing about selling a calender in south africa was an idea. should i try i will of course ask the owners of the vehicles for permission and the usual blocking of number plates etc will happen. as such it is just a suggestion. sorry about any confusion
