OK.... I have printed the first run. This year I did not include the banner ads from the tbs.com site. I intended to as always - the problem is, about 10 of the banner gifs (which are all animated) - dont staticly show up as a banner I can print.... I even tried doing a screen capture and cutting and pasting (which looked horrible...). I always try to give the paying advertisers some free advertising in the calendar - it just didnt work out that way this year... If Mike can get me some decent looking static images I can put in... well then.... calendars subject to change...

Anywho - the printer is running as we speak. i will be around tonight and tomorrow - out of town then until Friday night.... And calendar orders that come in by Saturday for sure will ship by Saturday. Sorry for the delay - but you know how anal I am about not taking anyone's money until the printer is spitting out calendars. The order page has been updated - same price as usual even though postage went up again this year.

Happy Holidays!

Order here: 2008 Turbo Buick Calendars

In the sample pic, I made the january layout bigger so you can see how it fits. The "outside" pics are each months highlight picture. Then I chose a bunch of the extra submitted pics I didnt use and spread them around the calendar pages as thumbnails (like I used to do with all the extra submissions that didnt win.)
