Picture submissions for the DDK 2013 Calendar

Post by Bootsy »

Usual format, post your pics and I'll select a batch to feature on the DDK 2013 Calendar

Pics should ideally be of members cars. You need to have taken them or have permission to use them and have the original hi res file to supply if chosen.

Landscape format preferred given the format of the Calendar

I'll keep the thread open until after Hedingham and then select 13 shots (1 cover) for the "2013 Special Celebration of a Decade of DDK Desktop Device Helping you Register which day of the Year it is" catchy title don't you think?

As asked and answered on last years submission thread....

Landscape-ish please, it'll be a similar format to the last one. Actual image size is approx 135 x 105mm, so I'll need to crop the images. I had to add more of the arched roof to the one below to make the image work.

Yup, what I said last year, unless we go for a slightly different layout with the numbers across the bottom and the image above giving a more panoramic shot. About 180x70mm, but that is probably a little more awkward to work with and would probably make that decision once we have chosen the images.

If you want an aspect ratio then 4:3 will be close enough with the car/subject taking up most of the width.

Hopefully I won't have to Photoshop those rusty bits off your car this time around Gary ;)
