2009 SCMC calendar submissions only!

[red04svtcobra]

Ok Guys and gals it is 2008 and if you have any great shots whether they are action, interior, exterior, engine, or just an overall cool pic then please submit them for a chance to be in the 2009 calendar. Please submit your highest resolution pic you can so the pics don't become pixaelated. A good resolution to shot at would be 2560x1920 or bigger. If your camera doesn't go that high then don't worry set it to the highest one and go shoot. :thumbsup: Please do not submit driveway pics or people standing in the pics as it does not make a great a calendar photo unless they are intended to be there. We have all year to take some spectacular pics so the next time you are at an event or it is a nice day why not snap a few and maybe your car or photo will end up in the 2009 calendar. :) Thanks and good luck to all.
Chris

The car had to be naked ,:D could not find fender skirts:p to match a COBRA
Do not want to be kicked out of the club for a topless convertable:thumbsup:.
Bottom line can not figure out how to post a picture

Just how do you put a picture infile:///C:/Cobra%20Pictures/100_1593.JPG:bounce:

[red04svtcobra]

All you need to do is get a picture host such as photobucket.com and upload a pic there. Once it is uploaded all you do is copy the IMG code below the picture and paste it to your post. Thats all there is to it.:thumbsup:

[mojo dad]

Tony-


Received my calendars yesterday. Great job. I have one proudly hanging in my office. Thanks.

[cobrabitn]

rleard,

You should be able to post photos now. You will have to keep them under 200 kb if you use the club's forums. :thumbsup:

[Shane361]

Should we post them up in here? If so here are two favs of my car-Shane

Chris found this on another form http://www.bmcforums.com/showpost.php?p=1331698&postcount=42

[red04svtcobra]

If that is the case then no one would be able to produce calendars. SVTPERFORMANCE, carolinarides, Fordtruckworld, as well as many others all make calendars and have been for at least 2 years that I know of. Just my thought is all.

[Shane361]

Ford seems to get angry about all the FREE advertisment. Its beyond me:rolleyes: -shane

[RF Cobra]

We've been doing items for years and some of it has been sent to people at Ford. They know about us and if they really wanted to do something I think they would have a long time ago.

Basically Cafe Press seems to have gotten caught with their hand in the cookie jar previously, and not wanting to admit it they tried to use BMC as a scapegoat. If Ford had been concerened about what BMC was doing, their attorney would have contacted them directly.

Back to the calendar pictures for 2009. :)

[Shane361]

Should be ZERO issues with a calender. Ford has been dealing with the BMC and all issue are resolved. Here is what I read-Shane

My name is Whitney Drake and I work in Ford Communications.
We've been watching this discussion with interest and I'd like to
clarify what is essentially a misunderstanding.

Yesterday we spoke to both Cafe Press and the Black Mustang Club
and explained the situation (about the Black Mustang Club’s calendar) to everyone's satisfaction. Ford has no problem with Mustang or other car owners taking pictures of their vehicles for use in club materials like calendars. What we do have an issue with are individuals using Ford’s logo and other trademarks for products they intend to sell. Understandably, we have to take the protection of our brands and licensing very seriously.

Ford did not send the Black Mustang Club a “cease and desist” letter telling them that they could not use images of their own cars in their calendar. The decision not to allow the calendars to be printed was made by Cafe Press, because we had gotten in touch with them in the past about trademark infringements on products they sold.

The Black Mustang Club, and any other Ford enthusiast club, are free to take pictures of their own vehicles for use in calendars or other materials as long as they don't use Ford trademarks in products that will be sold.

I think it is great that the Black Mustang Club, and any other enthusiast club, would take pictures of their own vehicles for use in calendars or other materials.

I'm looking forward to purchasing a copy to hang in the garage next
to my Mustang (even if mine isn't black).

Thanks for giving us the chance to have our say.

Please take a moment to send Whitney an e-gift here through the forums to thank her for working with us to get this resolved, and for wanting the calendar, too! She's been a great help and I'll continue to work with Whitney and the Ford team, so welcome her to the BMC family!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. I'm enjoyed hearing from all of you who have written with words of encouragement and support. Thank you very much for greatly extending the BMC family this week!

[cobrabitn]

And that's why I never replied to this post or on the BMC forums. Like one person said on there, their beef was with Cafe Press. Think about it..they do thousands of calendars and if they are not licensed by Ford then Ford is essentially losing thousands of dollars on "officially licensed products" by Ford Motor Company. I'm glad the BMC got the situation cleared so their members can enjoy their calendars. :thumbsup:

[Shane361]

True....nice calender though..this month a black mustang...next month...a black mustang...march....2004 black mustang:D

[cobrabitn]

Sounds like you need to buy a 2008 SCMC calendar with several Cobras in different colors in it but mostly red :rotf:

[red04svtcobra]

Well we all know Redfire is the official color for the SVT Cobra! ;)Allan, you have it all wrong my friend. It is TORCH RED!!:D

[VenomSVT]

You can help me take some pics at Lowes then, LOL. :p What camera did you get Mike?Chris,

I bought a Canon S3 IS (6mp & 12X optical zoom) for less than half the original price and so far I love this thing. I don't know much about cameras, but it seems to be able to do more than what I need.:D I could definately help you out.:thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

You take some great pics Mike. Canons are really nice, thats what my Mom uses. One day we need to get togather and try and get some action shots driving down I77. Gotta love the action shots.:D

[Cobra4me]

Well we all know Redfire is the official color for the SVT Cobra! ;)but its not the prettiest color CO ftw!

A pic of the engine bay after detailing for a car show.

[red04svtcobra]

very nice everyone. That engine see thru shot is awesome. I was going to try and do one sometime just to give it a try. :D

[red04svtcobra]

new pics to be added later

[9Cobra9]

have you got any pics of 99s yet for the calender, if not give me alittle time to get the car cleaned and will try to get some pictures of my ride for ya:thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

have you got any pics of 99s yet for the calender, if not give me alittle time to get the car cleaned and will try to get some pictures of my ride for ya:thumbsup: Matt correct? This years will not be by year, it will be the best of the best. :thumbsup: I am looking for any kind of shot that is unique, different, or just plain a great shot. remember take it at the highest resolution the camera will allow so if chosen it will look superb printed out. :D
Check this one out!!
http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l65/lightning_015/misc%20pics/DSC04602.jpg

[9Cobra9]

yes im matt, thats a good clear picture but I will see what i can do and can get more pics of it on the dyno too i have to go back and get it tuned i wasnt able to dyno day wasnt firing right so i changed the plugs and man it runs awsome:thumbsup: maybe i can take it to hanging rock and take some pictures is it ok if its in the parking lot or does it have to be somewhere else?

[nckissfan]

Matt, let me know when you are going to do that, at Hanging Rock SP. I was thinking of doing the same thing. Hey, maybe we can get Jason there, too. We could do a fun photoshoot. :thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

yes im matt, thats a good clear picture but I will see what i can do and can get more pics of it on the dyno too i have to go back and get it tuned i wasnt able to dyno day wasnt firing right so i changed the plugs and man it runs awsome:thumbsup: maybe i can take it to hanging rock and take some pictures is it ok if its in the parking lot or does it have to be somewhere else?Most definately Matt. What I am not looking for is driveway pics, people in the picture unless of course on the dyno or an action shot, or anything else distracting. Grab some action shots on the way there too, those look great. Good luck.

[cablernc]

Here's one for the 99 calender!

[RF Cobra]

That's a good one. :thumbsup:

Here's one for the 99 calender!

[red04svtcobra]

It's about that time guys and gals to get that cobra out from hibernation, get her cleaned up, and snap a few pics from this years calendar. :thumbsup:

[95svtCOBRA]

when do you need the submissions by? the weather has been way to unfriendly for me to keep the car clean, damn pacific northwest:mad:

[red04svtcobra]

I think we are looking for around November the latest so we can get everything sent off and any errors corrected if need be. This way we can have the calendars before Christmas. :thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

nice cobras

[RF Cobra]

If I may make a suggestion, I think the pictures should be submitted no later than 10/31/08 (I should have our event pics from Ted Russell and Dragon Run VII finished by then and hopefully have some to submit). That way there is time to review the submissions and the full size versions since they will need to be checked to make sure they are clear since a smaller version can mask blurriness that will not look good on the full size version.

I think we are looking for around November the latest so we can get everything sent off and any errors corrected if need be. This way we can have the calendars before Christmas. :thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

absolutely allan, great idea

[SVTSnak]

I guess I'll throw my hat in the ring. Not the greatest shot, but I figured what the heck. Lighting wasn't how I wanted it, but I'm not going to go into all that. LOL If I come up with a better shot/location before the deadline, I'll change out the pic. :D

Oh, and if you guys need the full rez version, let me know and I'll email it to you (without my watermark on it, by the way) or what not. It's WAYYYY too big to post here. :thumbsup:

[SVTSnak]

Here's one for the 99 calender!

CarrollNow that was a nice, and pretty clean (background wise) shot. Not to mention the car looks gorgeous and has great contrast against the green grass. Nice job, Carroll! :thumbsup:

Not that other shots here aren't nice, but these are the types of shots sought after for calendars. :thumbsup: :D

(just trying to help...not trying to be a pr*ck. ;) )

[SVTSnak]

http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u294/2000RCAR/DSC00570-1-1.jpgAnother nice shot, but I would PS (Photoshop) the tree out of the pic (and out of the windshield). I'd also maybe lower the camera angle a bit too...that gives the shot a more "dramatic" look and makes the car look even more powerful than it already is.

Just trying to give some helpful tips for everyone to make their cars look their best. :thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

All of these shots are nice and have a chance to be in the 2009 calendar. Just to let everyone know I along with 2-3 other random members ( have to be a paid member) will be choosing the cars. Those members will be chosen on a first come basis, which means everyone will be given a fair chance and when I post up the first 2-3 people to PM me that they would like to help out then they will be the team. This way there is no favortism on which cars are selected.
There is roughly 4 months left until decision time so there is still plenty of time to get that perfect shot. Thanks, Chris

[red04svtcobra]

need 2 more volunteers to help select the calendar pictures. If interested please PM me and let me know, thanks Chris:thumbsup:

[Sonicbluesvt]

Who is not a paid member? I have been a member for 2 years now.

[red04svtcobra]

It was not directed to you, sorry if it sounded that way. I just saw that you didn't have a SCMC# below your name and it reminded me that I needed to post that up. I was implying this to everyone that has submitted or will be submitting pics.:thumbsup:

[Sonicbluesvt]

No problem. It just seemed like you posted the comment right after I posted the picture. Sorry.

Looks very good Ted! I have always liked the Sonic Blue color. You guys know each other....lol. :rotf: Member number does help Chris out so be sure to add it to your avatar area. :thumbsup:

They'll be more calendars Jeff, I can promise you that. (I don't usually promise anything.) ;)

Nope didn't say that. But the picture quality and composure.. :eek:

[cobrabitn]

Yes I agree about the picture quality and I really wasn't pleased with it but it was a "first" calendar. Hopefully the second one will be better with more information in it. :thumbsup:

[red04svtcobra]

Nope didn't say that. But the picture quality and composure.. :eek:The quality will be much better this year. I have composed a 3 member team that will be doing the chosing this year, they are all volunteers. I can guarantee 1 thing, the pics will be top quality. :thumbsup:

The time is up so if we don't have 12 pics then we'll use some shots from 2008 SCMC events.

Thanks!

[SVTSnak]

Wow...I figured most people would love to have their vehicle featured in a calendar. I figured we'd have tons to chose from. :eek:

[nckissfan]

well, I count 15 entrants(people submitting photos), 16 if you include both of Carrol's car:thumbsup: So, we have enough to cover the calender.

[SVTSnak]

Now that's what I'm talkin' about :thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

Yes, but you are including non-members in that count Mike. Do you know how many of the pictures that are posted in the previous threads are expired members? (Quite a few)

I'll need to see the pics so I can send them off and if any of the owners are expired members then their pictures will not be considered for publication. So send what you have to me Chris as the printer is waiting...

[Cobra4me]

if you have any openings I will send some pics;)

[VenomSVT]

I could send some too!:thumbsup:

Thanks!

List will be on the first page....

Here's a couple images that may be of use for the calendar. I'm trying this as a test to see if I'm doing this right. /Rich

Here is a pic of mine if you want to use it.

[SVTSnak]

There are some nice additional shots put up here. However, some of them might need a little "cleaning up" (touch ups) to make them a little more calendar presentable, but otherwise, nice. :)

I don't mean anything bad by that statement by the way...every shot gets touched up for calendars/magazines...trust me. More work goes into the post processing than the shoot itself (most times). :cool:

[jimmysidecarr]

2004 Mystichrome coupe w/ Whipple @ 13#, JLT 12" CAI, Magnaflow C/B, Brembo 4 piston calipers w/ cooling ducts, lots of cooling mods, stock(slightly cut) springs and shocks, Detroit True Trac diff, Delrin & Alum diff bushings.
All mods are 93 octane fuel, street use , and open track use focused.

[Stang66]

Here is a couple pics of my 2001 True Blue Cobra Convertible on Daytona Beach along with a pic of a friend's 2003 Red Terminator. Feel free to use any of these so we can get some True Blue into the calendar.

I can e-mail a hi-res pic of these if you need them for the calendar. I think I would need at least 4 calendars if mine is used. Thanks!

[cobrabitn]

I don't know where Chris and his group went so you all just keep posting them for viewing. I still think we need to do a couple of event photos as well as individual shots like say the Parkway Ford's "Cobra Alley" shot so we can show our dealerships a little appreciation for supporting us.

[RF Cobra]

Probably 90%+ of my photos get some kind of post production before posting. Partially because of the perfectionist in me, but mostly because of the unforgiving nature of digital photography being more like taking slides rather than the more forgiving nature of 35 mm film.

Let me know what you want Tony and I'll see what I can dig up. I only have a few thousands potential pics that could be used. :)

[RF Cobra]

The shot with the P-51, The black shelby, and the two Cobras on the beach are all good ones.


<<hint, hint>> ;)

[SvilleCobra]

I will buy one!

[cobrabitn]

Right now we have 51 people committed to purchasing a calendar. We are only going to print what people order so if it is 51 then we are going to order 51 calendars.

Pictures we know that will be in the calendar:

John Evans 2007 Black Shelby GT 500 Vert - January
Keith Hick's 2003 Sonic Blue SVT Cobra Coupe - February
Carey McKinney's 1999 Black SVT Cobra Coupe - March
Rich Bowden's 1997 Rio Red SVT Cobra Coupe - April
1994 Pace Car - May
Darin Weaver's 2004 Oxford White SVT Cobra Coupe - June
Britt Mistele's 1993 Teal SVT Cobra Hatchback - July
Parkway Ford's "Cobra Alley" Photo - August
Carroll Puckett's - 2000 Perf. Red Cobra R - September
Ted Russell Ford's Mustang & Ford Show - October
Mike Krause and Edmond Vahedi on track - November
Bill Dangerfield's 2007 White Shelby GT 500 Coupe - December


We need a 1994 Indianapolis Pace Car Photo

Let's be fair about it, if you had a car in the 2008 calendar then you should share the joy by letting someone else have a turn in 2009. :D

[Evilcartman]

I will take 6 copies since I'm in it.

[gt500flyboy]

Given I'm in it - I guess I'll take a few as well. How much are the calendars?

ps - mine is a 2007 Shelby GT500 40th Anniversary

[cobrabitn]

You mean you have to be in it to buy one??? :rotf:

They will be $22.00 each and they will be the same size as last years with spiral binding. The size is 12 inches by 12 inches and that's an oversized calendar compared to other club calendars. The price includes "priority mail" shipping. Due to the close dollar amount on the cost, there are no discounts for multiple purchases, sorry.

[JayTee]

I'd like to be considered...

sorry - that didn't come out right...

When do you expect these to be ready? Any chance by xmas? I'll take 4.

Can you guys post the chosen pics?

also - know i have higher resolution of the pics i posted.

[cobrabitn]

I doubt they will be ready by Christmas but it will be by the first of the year. We sort of dragged our feet on this one..

I updated our email for the calendar layout and included a possibility for September based on our discussions. This is shaping up really nicely.

If we keep this up I'm going to have to buy more than one. :)

Steve Allen,

We'd like to use your car photo for the front page as a watermark.

Thanks,

Tony

[dickie_tuneup]

Put me on the list for a calendar also...thanks! /Rich

[Mac99Snake]

Tony,
I'm glad to have made the cut. Count me in for 4. I also have better resolution versions of the pictures.

Carey

[nckissfan]

I will buy one:thumbsup:

[SvilleCobra]

Disappointed I did not make the cut...however, I will still but one for my garage as a great conversation piece.

Thanks for the opportunity guys...

[RF Cobra]

Mike, both of your track shots are great shots and would work. We started getting a little heavy with the amount of Terminators we were looking at using and had to cut back on them. Plus we were a little heavy on red last year and tried not to do that this year (even though I love good shots of Redfire Cobras :) ). I think everyone will be happy with the way the calendar will look with Tony's final picks for this year.

Definitely resubmit yours for next year and maybe we can get two redfire Cobras in the 2010 one.

I think he accidently had you listed as Mat instead of Mike on the order list, it's fixed now.

No worries at all...looking forward to getting the calendar.

Again, thanks for the chance and I look forward to meeting you at VIR in late May.

[RF Cobra]

We had an email we were sending back and forth last night as were choosing pictures so that we had all the ones we were looking at in one place. That post had to do with my letting Tony know I sent him the email with the picture of your car that I thought worked the best. :)


What's up with Sept?

[RF Cobra]

Everyone that has posted wanting to get on the order list for the 2009 calendar prior to this post should now be on the list.

[cobrabitn]

Mike,

There's no need to be disappointed because all of the cars look great and I really like your on track photo so hold on to it for next year's calendar. Problem is we wanted to spread the years around and since we already had two Terminators, we had to make the difficult decision of picking two of them.

I'm looking into doing a "Tenth Anniversary" poster for 2009 so maybe you might make that one. ;)

[Mystic_Cobra]

I want two calendars.

[Stang66]

Tony,
Please put me down for one calendar. Thanks

[cobrabitn]

BTW Mike, I really like that True Blue convertible!! :thumbsup:

[97CasperCobra]

I'll be buying a calendar.....the calendar will make a nice addition and in 2010 the pictures will look great in my garage of all the Cobras!!!!!! :D

[jimmysidecarr]

Please put me down for one calender.

[dickie_tuneup]

I changed my mind and I'd like two calendars...thanks. /Rich

[RF Cobra]

Updated. :thumbsup:

I changed my mind and I'd like two calendars...thanks. /Rich

[93KingCobra]

I would like to have one...

[riored94]

i'll get one.

[cobrabitn]

I should have a proof by Friday or so I was told...

[gt500flyboy]

Any chance you could post all of the chosen pics here together?

[cobrabitn]

I don't have the proof yet but expect it this week. As soon as I get the proof photos with text, I'll post them.

Thanks,

Tony

[gt500flyboy]

Here's a neat dyno video done by a fan. He never saw a 40th before. I'm about 2:50 into this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-Cq4fjlW_I&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-Cq4fjlW_I&feature=related)

[cobrabitn]

I did get the proof tonight and there are several corrections to make on it. The calendar is too big to scan so I'll see if I can downsize some of the photos for everyone to see what photos we used for which months. We should have this thing ready to mail out the last week of December, just like last year. :thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

Please verify your calendar order is correct as this thing should be finished by the end of the week and ready to mail out by next week sometime.

(Everything depends on the printer and if he can make my long list of corrections done in time.)

Thanks,

Tony

[cobrabitn]

The calendars are on schedule to be finished this week so that means they should be going out this weekend, just in time for the new year. If you ordered other merchandise including the calendar then they will all be shipped together next weekend. I think you will like the new calendars.

Thanks,

Tony

[Playtme]

If you have one room for one more I'll take it, if not its OK.Joe

[cobrabitn]

Joe,

Just go in the store and order yours as I ordered a few extras. :thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

Please go to first post to see if you are paid up and if your calendars shipped today. I mailed out 45 calendars today so you should have them before the first of the month. :thumbsup:

[mojo dad]

Tony-

Great calendar. I really enjoyed all of the photos, but I am disappointed that you, of all people, left out the best of all Cobra colors....Mystichrome.
Mark

[cobrabitn]

Unfortunately, we have to go with making it so everyone gets a chance to be in the calendar no matter what color. I like Mystichrome and we did have Mike's 1998 BASF Extreme Cobra on the back. Does it look like a familiar color to you? :D

[RF Cobra]

The calendar looks great! Really good choice of shots Tony. :thumbsup:

[mojo dad]

Tony,

Just having fun with you. The calendar is hanging proudly in my office.
Mark

[cobrabitn]

Mark,

I did honestly try to get your and Mike R's in there but decided to get with Allan and add it for next year's calendar. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

I have 33 calendars left and according to those of you that committed to buying a calendar that have not paid, it leaves me with 3 extras. This is a first come, first serve basis so if you committed to buying one and haven't paid then be sure to take care of it before your copy gets sold to someone else.

You can pay in the store at www.scmcstore.com

Thanks,

Tony

[nckissfan]

you can go ahead and sell mine

[cobrabitn]

Took you off the list Mike, thanks.

[svt2205]

I just ordered one. Hopefully these are still available.

[SvilleCobra]

Tony and all who worked on the calendar....

Just got mine in the mail and this thing is sweet! Thank you for your efforts as this will be displayed proudly in my garage!

By the way....Love the SuperSnake pix! My dream car.

[cobrabitn]

Glad you like it Mike!!

Henry, I just gave you Mike B's calendar. It'll go out on Saturday with all of the rest of the prepaid calendars I haven't shipped out yet! :thumbsup:

[cablernc]

HEY FOLKS!! I received the calander. THANK YOU so much for letting me be a part of it!! It is AWESOME!!!!
