I've ordered my three! Woohoo!!

I'm gonna wait till I get them before I give my donation... ;-)

Nice work folks :) Congratulations again, for the chosen ones, you deserved it!

Oops I accidently ordered a bunch of them yesterday at 20 bucks each. I waited for the revised version of the calendar but I didn't realize the price on that was going to change. I hope all that extra money will at least go to this website. If it doesn't, is there some way for me to get credit for this new price from deviant? If not, hey, I was clearly willing to pay the other price for this great calendar that helps me with my christmas shopping ;)

Not to sound negative or anything but isn't there a spelling error on the back of the calender? Their was spelled "thier". I don't know if you can fix it in time but I just thought I should let you all and Caedes know.

Well spotted ;-)

I already fixed a bunch of spelling errors. Each one delayed the calendar by two days due to the need to have it re-evaluated by the print people. I was in a bit of a hurry to get it out in time of x-mass.

Ah well, who looks at the back of a calendar anyway?! ;) It sits against your wall for the whole year once you put it up! :D

Cool, I've ordered one.

This is great. I really hope this will work for the best for you guys.

heh, too bad they are all photographs. I don't really truely understand the art in pure photographs which is why I wish there was an abstract callender...maybe next year :/

I'm in for 10...my Mom and all her friends ;-)

Sweet! I'm gonna order 10 and give them to all my firends and family! Merry Xmas to everyone here at Caedes.net!

Regards,

I'm waiting for mine too :-)))

Anyone in the UK got their's yet cos i was just wondering how long it will take to deliver.

Congrats to all whose photos were included.

I am disappointed though: It seems the photos were timed to the seasons, but I think it is a bit lacking in this attempt. There's nothing wrong with the photos... they're fantastic. It just seems that their sequence could have been changed a bit to better fit the seasonal theme that is present.

I just got mine and all of the titles and author names are punched out by the spiral binding. =/ But other than that it looks very nice. =)

I swear that really annoys me... I told them that they didn't give enough information about the format of the calendar. I didn't enven know that it was going to be spiral bound or I would have allowed for more space. =(

Yeah I got mine today as well. The spiral binding certainly took care of the author names and picture titles, but the calendars look great. My thoughts on the missing names is that what the park rangers who I give the calendar to don't know, can't hurt them. It is not really apparent that there is necessarily supposed to be any text where the binding is unless you already know that. It's a shame that the printer didn't allow more room for that, but at least the authors all receive some credit on the cover. If we decide to do this as a site again next year we'll just have to put it together sooner so we have time to proof a real printed copy before making them available to everyone for holiday purchase.

Yep, I was nervous about not having time to proof a hard copy for that reason. I guess that we are lucky that the photos didn't come out in inverted colors. =p

I got mine this morning and they are looking great! As to the spiral binding and the names - well, all the authors are listed on the front page, so there is not sooo much harm done, and next year we will know better.
Happy Christmas to everybody!

aww crap... all 12 of the ones I ordered to give out to people for Xmas came with the names punched out.. :\

Yeah, it wasn't a fluke, the printer just didn't bind them appropriately. May I suggest that for those who have a picture of their own in the calendar, sign your picture in the bottom corner with a fine tip sharpie or something. That should have as much sentimental value for your giftees as seeing your name in lights ;)

That's a good idea.

Great idea, Torque, I'll do that sharpie thing. And Caedes, gotta tell you I'm impressed with the quality of the printing. Colors and detail in all the shots came out extremely well. That means you likely spent a bit of time doing some pre-press work on these. Appreciate that effort a lot! Mike

Just a reminder that the Caedes Poster is still available.

I got my copies of the calendar a few days ago and they look great. I want to thank everyone that submitted images and those folks that were involved with its creation. Good job. I have noticed one problem and that is that the title and artist name is not readable because of the binder holes. If you make one next year, please watch out for this conflict.

Yes, I just got my copy today. Needless to say I have a few 'comments' about the printing that I'll make known to daprints. Other than the binder holes, the photos were not reproduced with the same process that the poster prints are. They still look good, just not as good as they could be. I guess for the price they are still a good deal. This poster would be a good opportunity to get some images suitable for framing if you want to save some money.

I finally got mine today! Shame about the names but I guess at least we know for next year if another one is released ( I like the idea about the sharpie thing but unfortunately I personally have a lousy signiture :-) ) The other good thing is that the names and months are printed on the front so everybody knows who did what anyway. Great publicity for the site and as promised I will be making my donations soon! I really hope this becomes an annual "tradition" here at caedes.net.

Please let me know if you don't get your calendar within a reasonable time. Thanks.

...there are so meny oposit stiles and you should think about so many deatlis and the whole picture of the calendar. If you use one of The Delusionist shots!You have to think about what you're gonna use next!! You can't just....i mean, you can...but! The image of the calendar!And the atmosphere...has to be more effective. Couse you guys have hundreds of good images whish can be used. But....i wrote this and I know no body gives a sh... what am I talking about... whatever

p.s. anyways good luck whit the calendar
