Yes there is a bit too much magenta (no not 'the vine' minger with dark glasses and bobbed dark hair) in both those scans above, especially the sept. one. Looking more closely at some of the udder months the reds and magentas are too rich also, i suspect it was a poorly setup machine that was in need of a tweak/re-calibration/auto gradation. I have 2 calendars here and both are the same re. print quality, i'm happy enuf but the print room staff shud really have spotted this and rectified the problem, either way it is off on terms of quality over last years one but oil live with it as i loike looking at em !!!

Thanks for all your efforts Daps - another sterling job but I have to agree with MB and Wicky - the colour quality isn't up to last years

It's to late to sort out any quality control issues this year but worth making a bit of a fuss and negotiating a decent discount for next year?

Dap, It's only 3 weeks till the calendars start.
I would think that if you have had no contact by now you will probably not be getting it.
IMHO you should go to plan B. On next year's calendar perhaps a blurb like:
'Payment must be made by December 1st to guarantee your calendar,
otherwise the remaing calendars will go to the first person paying."
Or something like that. Not fair to leave you hanging, you have decorations to put up.

Latey's are not a prob at all, tis understandable people have bigger priorities this time of year. There are also normally people who want extras so it all works out in the end if some dunt want thurs. It would just be nice to know one way or t'other so I can get this whole thing done n dusted.
Am hoping to be too busy to be doing cals next year. So if anyone fancies taking them on (as the non proft type arrangement that they are) then please lettuce snow. Someone with some artistic/creative ability would be good (as I dont gots none).
