2012 Calendar Pics - Vote now
 
Below are the final picks for the 2012 OrchidBoard Calendar. If you do not see your photo here, it's probably because it was either not in perfect focus or it didn't meet the resolution requirements, or it was not really a calendar material. This year I was a bit ruthless and rejected a lot of photos that didn't meet the resolution requirements.

Once again, just a reminder that for next year's contest, please be sure to shoot photos with the maximum resolution that the camera will allow. Remember, you can always reduce the photos, you can't enlarge them and still have a print quality image.

We have to select 13 photos that will make the calendar.

how to vote?
Take a pencil and write down 13 of your favorite photos, then vote for them! Easy!

RULES:
1. Vote for your favorites. Top 13 pics make the calendar. Top favorite makes the cover

2. Feel free to invite your friends to vote on this contest, however telling them to vote specifically for your photo will get you disqualified. Links to this thread will show up at the bottom, so please no funny stuff.

3. Top 3 get a free calendar shipped to them.

4. In case of a tie, to simplify matters, I will make the final selection.

5. Voting will close in 7 days.

6. You can only vote once. After you press VOTE you cannot change your vote. Please be sure you make 13 selections ONLY

7. Enjoy the eye candy !

pedidiva 08-01-2011 08:50 PM

I am very intrigued with this #33. It looks as if a butterfly is on it. What is it. So many beautiful pics to choose from.

s1214215 08-01-2011 10:14 PM

There are several pics in this I am suprised to see here as they are not in focus or no more or less that some that are rejected, and others not here that I think is surprising too. Well thats competitions for you.

Bud 08-26-2011 04:11 PM

how do I purchase the calendar? pls put me on the reserved list for 4 calendars, thanks! its a nice gift for xmas

RosieC 08-26-2011 04:52 PM

Bud, the calendars are usually advertised on the left side of the forum in the bar down the top left. You should be able to see last year's still available there. They are sold to raise money for the board and the previous ones have appeared in the 'Support Store'

Marty was thinking of getting someone different to publish them this time, so not sure if it will be the same, however I'm sure he'll let us know how to get then as soon as they are ready.

I presume you made your list manually.

I did a copy paste, a few search and replaces, inserted it into a database and then with a 30 lines php-script had a complete list to insert here.
It was actually fun to do :)

Marty 10-19-2011 10:33 PM

Just wanted to give you guys a preview. Calendars should be available in about a month. I managed to finagle a photo for the back cover too! These will be larger than last year and better quality too.
