scutch0 Posted November 23, 2006 Author Posted November 23, 2006 i would have closed the thread but i was at work! im glad everyones getting involved...lobotomy, that looks ace bud. really like it.i think we need to keep it to one logo though, if i get a chance i'll have a go at a page... the only downside to one of us doing the calendar is that if we settle on adrians, or anyone elses idea, then it means its gonna be down to them alone to make the calendar, as we wont really be able to re-create his style.it depends on wether everone who's gonna try will be cool with that?ps. i think we should keep the thread open or open another one!

SiCaln Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 personally rich i think we should shut it and get our arses in gear, list the pics n get a poll goin on which pics r gna be used Quote
lobotomy Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Well I've got a .psd file of the A4 size page I made on the other page -- All that would need to be changed would be the pics and the months... maybe a few hours work all in all?So long as people knew what car was going on what month etc?But this all hinges on people having an HQ for the main pic and another 2 (at least) or 3 pics for underneath??Suggetions welcome.[edit]I'm just gonna mock up an A4 size with a Low Quality pic to see how pixelated it gets quickly...[/edit] Quote
Guest Enzo Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 if done the ohter way then we dont have a deadline now....problem is looking thought those pics is we need antoher four na starletss in there and some of the quality of the pics needs to be higher,joz could you not borrow a better quality camera?and at jaystar, do you have any pics of your na ep you could submit?

gaz Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 i reckon double side semi gloss, full colour arout 1.50 per double sided page. but im not sure. Quote
lobotomy Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 This is a quick mockup with a low qulity main image -- I won't direct it here because it's hugeThis was a 640x480 resolution pic from the last page:[LO Quality main picSee what you think about the pixelation?P.S zoom right in Quote
Guest Enzo Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 would you say the pixilations bad? Quote
Mikey Jay Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 if done the ohter way then we dont have a deadline now....problem is looking thought those pics is we need antoher four na starletss in there and some of the quality of the pics needs to be higher,joz could you not borrow a better quality camera?and at jaystar, do you have any pics of your na ep you could submit?Is that including my na by the way?have more pics of my Starlet on request if needed for Lobotomy's idea.(Really like what you've done by the way Lobotomy, is a good idea!)

Jozinobi Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 I'll get on it asap!Give me a few days lol!*edit* k I got a lend of one from a mate 6mp, so will get hq pics this weekend, bear with me ;)Peace OutJ z Quote
lobotomy Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 The A4 size on Photoshop is 3508x2480 - I'm just going by that? What do you reckon mate?--- And from what I was suggesting each month is a landscape A4 page?--- And also from looking at another scabbo calendar I've got here (it's got puppies on it) It'll be 16 A4 pages or 4 A3 (is that double A4 can't remeber) printed front and back which includes a front page and a back page where we could put a little blurb about the UKSC and stuff?It would run:Page 1 Front: January & Blank pagePage 1 Back: Front Cover & Back CoverPage 2 Front: March & DecemberPage 2 Back: Feb & Blank PagePage 3 Front: May & OctoberPage 3 Back: April & NovemberPage 4 Front: July & AugustPage 4 Back: June & SeptemberAllows for a couple blank pages for a blurb and maybe some advertising? (Help subsidise the cost or whatever?) Quote
paul w Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 to be honest that lo res pic didn't too that bad at all to me,go with what has been mocked up i reckon, looked pretty good. Quote
Guest Enzo Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 sound so each page will be landscape then.to what u have said adrian thats how it wil get printed yea?thanx for your imput by the way@all depends on your camera skill to see if it gets voted or not i would think Quote
lobotomy Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Yep no probs -- I'd offer to do the goffering and get prices and stuff but (A)I'm working at my current work all weekend and (B)Working the rest of the time trying to get a bloody decent job! Got aptitude tests to try swat up for now!! Quote
gaz Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 sounds good. give it a high DPI it will print nice and the correct size.it iwll be reduced so aslong as the pic arent particularly bad then it should print ok.as for getting a job.. send emails to companys.. with your CV. or send them a something very creative. note: please check out my CV.. apparently its best not to ask for a job.. then ring up at a later date and ask what they thought of your CV.. this is assuming you want a design jobhope this helps.

Guest Enzo Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 its no problem getin the prices for the calindar, thats something i could do Quote
Jozinobi Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Fellow Gopher Well camera skill or no camera skill everyone should have a fair chance hence the vote.This is defo gonna be a poll yea ? or UKSC Judge Panel?What time frame can u give me and my brief G as I will be equipped with cam this weekend...Peace OutJ ;) z Quote
