Skib Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 ok, rules amendment made. the calender site request pics be 3000 X 2500 pixels at 300DPI so aim high :cool: chances are you are going to have to go out and actaully shoot pics for the calander, in most cases just using a pic you already have isnt going to cut it. and for those that are not familiar with DPI, we will need an origonal file of the pic that is from the camera, not one thats been uploaded and then saved to your comp from the internet again. being uploaded to the internet reduces all images to 72 DPI and that just dont work :P winners need to have that original file to email it as an attachment to J.Chimpo for printing, again, no pic uploaded to the internet will work for printing, you must save the original!

What if someone emails you the picture will it reduce the DPI then also? Link to comment
Skib Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 What if someone emails you the picture will it reduce the DPI then also? thats why Iv asked it be emailed as an attachment, itl retain the DPI cant have something that was uploaded to photobucket ect. it has to be the original file. winners need to have that original file to email it as an attachment to J.Chimpo for printing, again, no pic uploaded to the internet will work for printing, you must save the original!

MikeRL411 Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Here's mine. Can reshoot in any resolution required, original is 1280 x 960. My camera's maximum resolution is 1280 x 960, a 1.3 MegaPixel unit. 7 or more were required! Skib changed the rules this morning, so I'm back in! The new Terreana Resort and Trump golf course are both a half hour away. If a reshoot is desired, I could shoot with Catalina Island in the background. Link to comment
Skib Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 great shot mike :cool: check out the first post for size, we need some nice big shots for the printer. Link to comment

SHADY280 Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 skib those are just my entries for voting, they are from photobucket. ill find out what size they are and add to this post so i dont klutter. my red truck came from a 3.2 megapixel and the car from a 7 or 10 mega pixel camera. i can even go shoot more (car only, truck is gone), or could we just stack my 2 to make one pic? truck is 2000x1500, car ill have to ask the original shooter, she took it and i copied off facebook Link to comment

Laecaon Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 If you have a 10 megapixel or better camera, that would be ideal. 8 Megapixel and you are just about in the clear. If you are using a 8 megapixel try not to crop the picture after taking it, get the original as close to what you want as possible. I would submit a picture of my car, but the wheels and tires are humiliating. Anyone have a set of wheels laying around for a photoshoot? I am down for a PDX area group picture. Link to comment
Skib Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Im going to be setting up a shoot in two weeks if a few PDXers that want to come need to PM me, this will be a professional shoot not just some buddy with a decent camera. Link to comment
Laecaon Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Two weeks is perfect! Thanksgiving week time? Go check my build thread to see the latest pictures and see my horrible wheels... The rest of the car looks good. Link to comment
