Well I finally voted, cut it a bit fine this year.

A quick check through and my absolute favourite is winning by a reasonably big margin

I'm also thinking of adding an extra month...maybe Jan 2012 as the last page... problem is, I have to buy them first, so if I over buy, I'll be stuck with them...if I under buy, I'll have you guys cussing me out... Not sure what the price will be yet, but I'm hoping to be less than last year for a much nicer calendar...at any rate... this years calendar will be amazing!!!

Sounds great, Marty, will they still be easily available to non US citizens?

I'd be interested to know which pictures will actually be on the calendar. The top winners are easy but -- if I counted correctly -- there are 4 photos tying for the last two slots.

I counted it as a 4 way tie for the final spot as well. I think Marty picks in the event of a tie, so we'll wait to see what he says.

That's true. Marty also mentioned the possibility of including another photo for Jan. 2011 but that would still leave someone out.

Hmmm... eenie, meenie, miney, moe...I wonder how he'll make the decision.

If an extra page why not shrink the pictures and put the tied 3 not picked for 13th page on the extra one ? Just a thought ..

I think the winner should also have a month of the year, if he only has the cover, he could never see his picture during the year.

just a thought,

i think next year, it might be a good idea to think about maybe a 15 month calendar....

we can also think of a 5 years calendar plus one cover page for each year... and then, there is not even a need for voting, because all 64 photos would be included... for the missing photo (we 65!) we can make a collage with the avatars of all members who sent a photo (just to give some work to Marty, as selecting photos and organizing the poll is not needed anymore, and to avoid he gets bored!)

would be a good idea... what do you think?
