you forgot Chipcom and AEO:innocent:

I supplied a pic of me in the first thread AND I ordered the first calendar already!!!

Doesn't include shipping. My paypal ordering page adds $3 for shipping, handling, and the paypal fee...

fixed! thanks :D

BTW: Credit where it is due... I think Airwick first mentioned the calendar idea in the brainstorming thread... but I think he deleted the original suggestion post - I just happened to see it before it was deleted...

I think we should also mention that your photos should be landscape, not portrait. The calendar photos will end up in landscape orientation so if you take the picture in portrait, it'll get cropped badly...

FYI, It'll take me a while to get a pic taken... I only have an ancient 2MP camera, and a little 4.1MP.

Would it be possible to combine photos to format for landscape? I like the collage idea. But if keeping it to a single photo makes life easier disregard.

That looks nice Arti!
There's even room left over for a Bass in there:lol:

You might wanna rethink that... Now I'm tempted to send you a pic just because... :innocent:

I do not like draft calendars. Can I get mine in a bottle?

Nice draft, arti! :)

i'll try to get a pic this weekend when i go riding with my Hammer guys. if not, i'll get one soon....

Hey! Look at those whos who of Foo Ladies.
I am indeed the greatest person on the face of the earth but I just want to buy the rights to max market this masterpiece :)

Great causes; great ladies.

Good stuff.

Thanks to artifice and ehidle for taking a modest idea and turning it into art!

So, I'll throw one offer out... I'm a photographer in the SF Bay Area, so if anybody around needs pictures, I can take 'em.

Holy smokes! 2 pics already?!? Foo is awesome. If I manage to come up with a few bucks, I'll throw it forward, although it may not be enough to by a calender. :o

Nice...I may take you up on that. Not sure I have any suitable ones of me with a bike in high enough resolution (not counting the Duc).

contributions to benefit
ideally, profits could benefit a charity of choice for each foo lady that contributes. As it is important to give the maximum benefit to as many causes as possible, we'll start by dividing profits equally among three charities (from the first three foo ladies to submit photos). As the orders roll in, we can expand the number of people who will benefit.
1. Artifice - the leukemia & lymphoma society's team in training
2. Ehidle - the sunshine club (benefiting foo folks who fall on hard times)
3. <32ride - ms society
4. Kaiju velo mercian fund

So..who decides to be on what month? :D

mud wrestling and the winner gets to pick

I'll arrange the calendar order... April, of course, will be Ms. April... other than that, you all may make your case if you want to be in a specific month :p

So..who decides to be on what month? :Dgood question. Maybe once we see how many foo ladies are involved (march 1 deadline) we can divy that up?
if some folks have smaller-resolution photos, we may do a collage for one month.

if anyone has, say a sexy santa suit or a playboy bunny costume they'd like to pose in, I suppose we could arrange for the corresponding holiday months. ;)

SNIP:roflmao2: I don't see any foo ladies in that photo.

the jury will, however, consider your submission as a last resort.

Mine was on page one of the original thread, but I guess I am just not cool enough for the rest of the crossdressers.

I think artifice actually wants to sell these calendars. My pic may not be the best for that purpose.
