: Hey, what do you guys think about ...
99grandamse 10-19-2005, 06:25 AM ... having a 2006 G6OC Calendar? ... if there is sufficient interest, I would be willing to accept submissions of member pictures and generate a calendar for sale through CafePress ... the way it works on GAOC is that members submit their pictures and after a specified closing date, I put them all up together and the entire membership gets to vote for their favorite and when all is said and done, the top twelve get included ... having said this, do we have enough interest here as I would be more than happy to do it for you fellas (and ladies) too :)
thunkele 10-19-2005, 08:50 AM count me in

99grandamse 10-20-2005, 01:45 PM Hmmmm ... sounds like we have the makings of a Calendar :) ... speak up people and I'll get started on an official annoucement ... then, you can all get out taking some great 'calendar style' pictures ;)
ragingfish 10-21-2005, 02:30 AM Hells yeah! I'm game! :)
~niKKi~ 10-21-2005, 05:39 AM I'm down even tho my car is still completely stock!! haha.
99grandamse 10-21-2005, 10:17 AM ... stock or modified means NOTHING to me as I like shiney cars with nice scenery :)

so, kelly....."are ya ready for some FOOTBALL???" , er i mean 'PICTURES' yet?
wish you had thought of this LAST month when it was still warm out and the sun was shinning!!!!! now its getting dark at 6p.m. and RAINING all day long.
i think the appropriate thing for you to do is to email all 372 MEMBERS to inform them HOW, WHEN AND WHERE to send their pics..........you can handle that, can't you? :rolleyes:
99grandamse 10-24-2005, 10:47 AM ... I could but I don't want to be yelled at for SPAMMING ... HAHAHA
99grandamse 10-24-2005, 10:50 AM OK ... here is what you can do until I get a second to make an official post ... email you G6 Picture in the LARGEST RESOLUTION POSSIBLE to calendar@gaownersclub.com with G6OC in the subject line ... now, by largest resolution, I mean something along the lines of 2048x1536 pixels and at least 72 dpi being anything less may cause a decrease in print quality ... if you are curious whether or not your picture will work, send it along anyway and if it is not suitable, I'll contact you back :) ... anyway, send in your pictures and if we get enough to make an actual calendar (i.e.: 12 pictures), I'll have it organized right away ... get to work guys!! :)
G6Action 10-24-2005, 10:55 AM .....here's a thought;
when you collect all your pics, post them on the site and assign them #'s (no members names)
have a specific time period, lets say 1 week, to have all the members vote for their favorite pics. each member gets 3 votes. at the end of the week, whichever pics get the most votes make the calendar.......sounds Democratic, does it not? oh, i forgot.....you're in CANADA!!!!! well, still might work if you don't tell anyone....... :rolleyes:
better than 'spamming'!!!!!
lrish 10-24-2005, 03:02 PM i like the voting option!
however, I think we should hold off on the calendar. 06 g6s are still in their infancy and performance products are being created as we speak. other upgrades (ie: sound, interior, exterior kits) are still at a minimal because everyone is broke from buying the car! i know exactly what im going to do with the car, just dont have the funds to do it. im sure there are many of you in the same position.
if we go ahead with the calendar, theres just going to be a bunch of stock-G6s
ragingfish 10-24-2005, 04:19 PM if we go ahead with the calendar, theres just going to be a bunch of stock-G6s
That's bad? :confused:
I'd still buy a calendar, even if it was all G6's that were stock. Some good scenery shots can still make for a killer picture...:)

i agree....nothing wrong with that!! besides, some of us have changed wheels, added spoilers, etc......and we can have different colors in both coupes and sedans!!!
but next year? now we're talkin' ground effects, ram-air hoods, wild paint jobs and we will even have CONVERTIBLES! yes, next year will be absolutely AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GUYS, lets get to work!
kelly, whats a 'pixel'? is that some form of Canadian measurement, like an 'inch'?:rolleyes: ha, ha
lrish 10-24-2005, 09:38 PM hahaha, i love canadian bashing....unless they drive a G6.
the converts are going to be nice, but to me they look like a sunfire.
99grandamse 10-25-2005, 05:49 AM HAHAHAHA ... actually a pixel is a graphic measurement ... in regards to having the membership vote, I agree and that is/was my plan (sorry for not explaining my train of thought but figured we should 'get' the pictures first :D) ... anyway, let the photography begin (for interest sake, there is a similar process going on at the GAOC right now where we ended up with 65 different Grand Ams submitting their pictures and will begin the voting process probably later today) :)
Redsun_ty 10-25-2005, 07:10 AM i'll buy one
99grandamse 10-29-2005, 07:49 AM ... I haven't received ANY pictures yet so I assume people aren't too interested ... no big deal as if we don't get enough soon enough this year, we'll do it again next year :)
Bob G 10-29-2005, 08:20 AM Weather has been crappy here but I'm going out today to shoot a few pics. Hopefully you will get some more
~niKKi~ 10-29-2005, 08:45 AM I'm going to attempt some pictures 2day too...just gotta wash the car first in the 40* weather haha.
thunkele 10-29-2005, 10:32 AM i wish pittsburgh weather didn't suck lol
Fusion 10-31-2005, 01:05 PM It's going to take a couple weeks for me to get some good pictures because i have to take the car in and get body work done since i was rear ended AGAIN, and i got a nickel size door ding the day before the rearend. The weather has been pretty bad here lately as well.
99grandamse 11-01-2005, 01:38 PM ... OK, I will make one whenever I get enough :)
Lampoon 11-07-2005, 08:40 AM A calendar sounds great. What size pictures do you need?
~niKKi~ 11-07-2005, 08:42 AM A calendar sounds great. What size pictures do you need?
Yeah Kelly, what size pics and whats the deadline? Maybe we can *at least* get 12 ppl to get some good pics! haha.
