Submissions need to be as close to 3500 pixels wide and 2300 pixels tall as you can get.

640x480 is not close.

Send submissions to calendar@3sgto.org

Thats great news, we took a few more that are really calender quality in my opinion. If not i still like looking at them anyways.

In my opinion no it wouldn't. Engine bay shots, interior shots, "nut and bolt" shots do not belong in a CAR calender. I have had probably 25 car calenders over my lifetime and not one ever had anything but pics of the exterior. Sure some people have nice engine bays, but they don't belong in this calender.

So a fresh 6g74 decked out and powder coated sitting on an engine stand wouldn't look nice in the calender either?

It seems we have the same opinion about the calendar. I found it tough to pick 14 submissions. Hopefully there will be some better shots submitted. I also agree that engine bay, interior, and nuts an bolts shots aren't good for a calendar. I do one for another site and I get a lot of those and have to turn them down.

No. Its a CAR calender. Not an engine sitting on an engine stand calender.

Exactly, it doesn't take a photgraphy expert to know what looks good and what doesn't. I think some people procrastinated like a mo fo and just either hurried pics and submitted crap, or submitted older photos already taken that have shitty surroundings.
