Here we go again!!!!! :woot: :woot:

Most of you here know about the annual CK5 calendar. For those CK5ers who don't know what I'm talking about, here's the skinny. We accept pics from CK5ers every year, and the very best of those pics end up appearing in said calendar. The best of the best ends up gracing the front cover!!!! :bow:

These are the rules:

1. You must be a supporting member in good standing.

2. Pics need to be HIGH QUALITY, with a minimum resolution of 1200x1600 pixels. Whenever possible, try to submit pics taken "long side down" so we can maximize page usage. Grainy or out-of-focus pics will not be accepted.

3. Along with your pic, I'll need a short list of your truck's specs, in this order:

Year, make and model, motor, tranny, TC, front and rear axles, gears, lift size and brand, tire size and brand, wheel size and brand(if applicable), any "extras" that you think set your truck apart from others.

As well, please include the location where the pic was taken.

4. We are looking for cool action shots with awesome background scenery. Poser shots will be considered if the background is too good to ignore. If you've purchased a calendar in the past, you know what we're looking for. Keep in mind that this is not a beauty contest- I look forward to receiving pics of ALL KINDS OF RIGS, not just modded-out monsters. In fact, last year, once again, we barely got any Suburban pics!!!!

5. We will be accepting submissions until +/-SEPT. 30th, and although this is not first-come, first served, I would appreciate it if you guys could send your stuff into me sooner than later. We have 12 spots to fill, including the cover page, and I intend to include a few honorable mentions on the back page this year......

6. This year we will be reserving the back page to honor the memory of Shewheeler(Cheryle Weatherly), a longtime CK5er who passed away earlier this year after a courageous battle against cancer. Kim and I will be donating $1 from every calendar sold to a cancer charity(I'm looking for suggestions:dunno:).

Anyhow, you can submit your pics to unan at telus dot net. Please include your username AND real name, and mention something about "CK5 calendars" in the title. If you are sending big files(5 MB+), PLEASE SEND YOUR PICS IN SEPARATE EMAILS!!!!!

That's about all I can think of. Like I said before, many of you have bought these calendars in the past, and know what kind of pics we're looking for. Check those inoboxes, hard drives and SD cards- that special pic your buddy took or sent you might just appear in next year's Rigs of CK5 calendar!!!! :thumb:

Good luck, lads.......

As for the cancer foundation, Make A Wish is usually a good one. They help out kids who have cancer and they fund one of their dreams. My buddy got his Mustang redone about a year and a half before he passed away.
 
Sweet! I wonder if a pic of my sub in my driveway with the hood, engine, wheels and tires off of it would make it in. Haha!
 
So is this where we're posting all the submissions for everyone else to get excited over?

Maybe I'll get it right the first time this year haha. I'm going to try to see if I can't get a few pictures to turn out better by adjusting lighting and stuff in Photoshop...or I'll just realize I'm not a photographer lol
 
I haven't done any good wheeling since last november! I'll have to submit a couple HQ pics from that trip...
