Is there a bpnet calendar?

Maybe I'm crazy, or blind, but I thought bpnet had a ball python calendar. I think you guys (mods/admins) should make one with BPOM photos or photos you like here. Then the money you make off them could go to the website! :please: :D

I'd buy it!

:gj: Me too! (maybe if enough of us beg the admins will go for it!)

I would buy it! I need a new calendar anyway, and I can't ever find ANY reptile ones at the store.

That's no kidding! I'm about to print a bunch of pictures and tape them on a calendar :rofl:

I would buy it too!:gj:

I am in, I will buy one :)

Count me in for two, one for my house, one for hubby at work.

I think this is a great idea, you could even set up a special photo contest for it if you wanted to, so people could add "holiday" themed pics if they saw fit.

Admins, please consider this.

Me too! I could post it up where my boss could see it when she comes into the shop. It might be viewed twice.:rofl:

Shame she would miss all the other months...:rolleyes:

Count me in as well!

YAY! Look at all the people who want a calendar! :banana:

Sorry I missed this earlier. It might be too late to try to put something together for 2010, but it certainly is a great idea for 2011! I'll get the staff to discuss and see what we can do!

This is a GREAT idea, but im sure its to late to do it for 2010. We made calendars for 2009 and ordered 300 of them. We had all our pics and info ready and turned in by mid Sept. and still didnt get them til mid Jan.

BTW i would take one:gj:

If I remember right this same topic came up about a year ago, I said I would buy one then and I still will.

I would buy one :gj:

I would definately buy one, so long as the morelia aren't left out!

:banana: Hooray!!! That would be awesome for 2011. This way you guys would have plenty of time to get one together and get them printed!

YAY! Hopefully we'll have one for next year!! :gj:

I'd get one! It is amazing how long it takes to get done, though. I've been a part of another marine-keepers forum and it took a hell of a long time to get everything organized. regardless, I'd buy one. :-)

Id get one too but you need to make it avail to residents outside the us.
If it takes a few months to put it together then using the bpom, hotm, etc pics wont work since we wont have enough pics in time. I think there should be a seperate contest run over a few months to get enough images. Maybe run it for 3 months and have 4 different pics win each month and theme it. for eg start in feb and have it so people can enter 4 pics 1 for each catagory. like happy new year theme for jan, valentines for feb, spring theme for march, easter theme for april. then do the same for the next month etc.

I see this done on another forum and the admin picks the top 5 or so pics as runners up and then sets up a poll for those for people to choose from.

We're working on it! You're right that we can't do a simple "BPOM Winner Calendar" for a particular year because (as I understand it, for a quality product) print runs have to be submitted in the summer to be ready for distribution in December. Granted...we could use previous years' winners...but where's the fun in that? :P

First, the staff will need to decide exactly what sort of layout and design we want to go with...then decide what sorts of animals we want to include...then we'll figure out the best way to do polls to collect the winners. We'll likely have multiple polls over 2-3 months until the winners are all collected.

So yeah...just wanted to let y'all know we're actively working on it. :gj:

with the large amount of pics and reptiles this great site has. You could put divide each page into 4 giving you 48 pics for the 12 months. Or even put 6 pics per page and get 72 pics. Just my 2 cents tho

:banana: Sound good!!! :bow:

That is such a great idea!!!

Yeah, I remember this came up last year, too, and I kind of forgot about it....

I make photo calendars every year for my family, and I get them made at Walgreens. They are pretty good quality, though they are kind of expensive: $20 for 8.5 x 11 inch, $30 for 11.5 x 14. I'm sure there's a cheaper way to do it....
