LAST CALL:

We will close out the photo call soon, and put them up for vote on 914world. If you have anymore photos you would like to submit, please post them soon.


___________________________

Please submit your calendar photos in this thread. The poll will start in a couple weeks to choose the calendar photos.


___________________________

In response to comments about the calendar:

Over the past three years, we produced the 914 calendar. It breaks even. I just wanted a cool calendar for my wall. And I think it was cool.

We do a 914 poll of your pictures, put it together, print it, and ship it.

If Andy wants us to contribute proceeds to 914world, that sounds cool to me. We are happy to increase the price from the $13.00 per calendar as much as everybody wants, and donate the proceeds over costs to 914world. There isn’t any profit at the current price.

Assuming we make a decision fast we can still get it done by the end of the year. There are no logistical issues with producing the calendar. They are printed to order, and to my knowledge, everybody has always received the ones they ordered. It has always gone very smoothly. Unlike the magazine, it’s subscriptions, and renewals of subscriptions, which are a logistical nightmare. Please see my post in the magazine thread.

If you all don’t want us to do the calendar, ok. I’ll head to the mall and buy a 911 calendar for my office. But it won’t be as cool. :-)

If you all want us to do it, I’ll post a new - call for photos - thread. Just let me know.

I'll probably get flamed for this...especially since I don't have a dog in this fight. But, what the hell....

I looked over previous calendar posts and didn't see if these funds are going to help support 914world.com or is just a commercial venture. If supporting 914world.com that's cool.

If not....well...... have the concerns of your paying customers for your magazine been addressed? The last post I saw in the magazine thread indicates people have not been receiving issues. Your magazine website hasn't been updated for many months and doesn't show if you have printed any new issues.

Before going on to your next venture you should complete old business (if you haven't already).

Good to see your still around. Please refund my payment for the magazine of which you were unable to deliver. I would request that others refrain from providing free photos for his personal profit until he addresses the many teeners who paid for the magazine subscription that went unfulfilled. I hope this gets corrected ASAP as I am sure many of us would love to have a 914 calendar. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I paid for a subscription of Fourteener Motoring magazine and got one issue.
Sent an email to let him know and received no reply. Either refund everybody's money or publish the magazine.

Not much for jumping on the band wagon but..... thought it was just me. However. After complaining I did receive my money back and then got a magazine after wards? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
Probably good advice, get the ducks lined up on parade one, before getting the second parade rolling...good luck.

I submitted photos that I was told were selected. I'd think I would have been given a calendar. But no. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)
