Floating an Idea: Mdshooters calendars

[Tootall]

Wondering about interest in this idea.

2010 Calendars with Mdshooters member taken pictures.

Members would be able to submit pictures and then a membership poll would be taken to decide which pictures make the calendar (12 pictures needed plus a top notch cover)

11x8.5 inch calendars printed on 100# gloss text/ gloss cover paper.

100 minimum calendars to make pricing realistic for everyone

My questions are...

#1 is this something you would buy?
#2 what would you pay (this would include calendar, donation, ship supplies, shipping to you)
#3 would you submit pictures and give consent to have them used in the calendars (and only the calendars)

Anything that benefits MSI will always get my attention, but I dunno if I'd actually want one of these.

 

[Polecat]

I'd go for it.

No nude shots of Novus, couldn't handle the psychological trauma.

heh heh, how about we get the female maryland shooters to "strike a pose" for the calendar? wait, do we have 12 women here who'd pose for this calendar? not to be sexist, but ummm, seeing a male fellow member in a crouched position sighting in his .223 or .308 for an entire month may not be the picture i wanna see in the morning when i am starting my day (no offense guys), and no offense to the ladies in my suggesting this sexist idea.

ha ha ha, tootall, you kill me! great idea though.

wives/girlfriends/fiance's of MD shooters would be ok too.

#1 Yes
#2 Not sure
#3 Yes and Yes

I would want to hang one in my office at work. Therefore, I'd buy one if the pictures were in good taste, and interesting.
I see quite a few pictures posted on this site that are childish, disgusting, and just plain stupid. Those are not fit for a calander.

what about this... out of the membership here and the associated organizations (MSI, etc.,) we drum up pics of family members deployed to iraq or afganistan or possibly actual members of this group who is deployed? just a thought to expand on.

seems iffy at best so far.

 

[Punchabearinnamouf]

I could submit photos, maybe do some photoshop work for it. I dunno about buying one though. Probably still send you a donation or something.

 

[futureseabee]

only if the pictures are of some fine lookin ladies

 

[Tootall]

ok i'll consider this one a crash and burn idea

 

[Punchabearinnamouf]

Well, maybe if people submit photos every month we can work something out for next year eh?

 

[Oldcarjunkie]

Id buy one but i think we would have to vote on the pics to be on there.

 

[Drmsparks]

Maybe we could do a gun based calender. M1911 turns out some great calenders showcasing it's members weapons.

Here is last years....
