    With regards to the calender there is an easy simple way to do it altho not much money would end up going to GC that way

    Basically on redbubble.com someone could make an account and you can upload all photos to make a calender then you decide on what %age mark up you would receive from the sale and make it live. From then on redbubble print and distribute it internationally and deal with returns and there is no upfront cost.

    It might be worth doing that to try it out to see how much demand there is for it at this stage.

    Oh and just to add all artists on there keep their copyright of work it never belongs to redbubble just incase anyone would be worried about that

        Hi Dips, I have been looking at similar sites between work commitments and agree, this takes away the payment up front and the package and posting.

        Maybe a forum should be posted to see just how many members would be interested in the purchase of the calendar and quantity they may be interested in?

        Personally I think it's a great idea but it can only become sucessful if members are interested :)

          I think you are doing a fantastic job and agree that there should be a more sociable time to close the competition

            Actually, Woo is a long serving Admin member, [with a short break in between], who has first dips in the Admin Biscuit tin and get's his mug of tea made for him:love30: And Admin, GC and the Photo Competitions are so much better to have him back doing what he does best.......looking after GC.:coffee:

              Before taking this further I think it should be run past admin first, particularly our Webmaster as it would need his agreement. :)
