What is the minimum resolution for a calendar pic?  Just in case I wanted to submit a pic next year.   :icon_cool:

I'm still waiting on a pic from one of the winners before I can get the calendar ready for sale.   If I don't get it tonight, I'll just have to go with what we got as time is running out!  I will have the calendar ready no later than this Sunday night for ordering!
If Beemerchef doesn't get back to you in time, try this slightly larger version

Obviously the higher the better. Memory's cheap these days, so just save the highest res you've got for when you win!

I believe last year's smallest pic was 800x600 and it came out somewhat grainy. I'd say most shots over 1600x1200 will print "ok".

As we all know there were many excellent photos that didn't make the cut this year. I would like to point out that last year I made this nomination for the 2009 calendar and it didn't make the cut. As Vista Grande mentioned here that same photo not only made it this year, but was tied for first place! There was also this one from last year that made it into the 2010 calendar.

 So have patience and please keep shooting and posting. Do it for Homero's sake, if not for the rest of us. :icon_lol:

Thanks to all of you for sharing your photos! :eusa_clap:
