Martin are you wanting to do the calendar again fer 2012 ?? Just thought it might be good to give someone else the chance to do it as the price and quality this year was hard to swallow plus traditionally the calendar pictures are voted for by Carpe members ??? Think you need to think about this really. Wick.

Wicky, Dont need to think as I have already told the Mods I'm not doing it this year.
A few Carpe's thought it was a piece of piss to do the calendar.
So someone else can manage it, sit back open a beer and watch it produce itself.
Opened the topic as it needed to be
Sorry about the price and quality. First complaint I have heard. I'll paypal your refund to you.

Being the fool who started the Carpe Calendar I can tell thee, it might sound loike a question of slinging a few pics in a template but it was snot. There is alot of work and chasing about involved.
I also had a quality issue one time when I did them. As a colour blind person, it all looked fine to me but the keener eyes of Masterbrewer and Wicky noticed that things were not quite right. I know Wickys work used to involve checking the quality of prints so if he says the print quality is poor, it probably is. Cats seems to have handled this, as I did with Masterbrewer and everyone seems happy with the outcome?

I may be willing to do it, However anyone ever thought of setting up a Cafe Press store?
You can upload a design to mugs, t-shirts, just about anything that's printable,
Also I believe they do calenders.
I would be willing to curate the store if the top dons think its a good idea.
The only problem I see is that I know the stuff is a little expensive, but it does allow an individual to buy at there will rather than a forum member having to manage posting out things and payment and all sorts.

It has been discussed before yes. I will add it to the long list of things to be discussed again once the ecumenical one has time.

Okie
Have just been looking at calender printers online
This Place The Calendar Printers.com look pretty darn good
for 25 A4 calenders they charge - £4.99
for 25 A3 calenders they charge - £6.99
for 20 CD calenders they charge - £3.25
I'd be willing to organise it next year if we don't opt for the cafe-press option
