OK, guys! I'm doing it this year. Here's the deal: (submission address will be down at the bottom)

If you were a GBotM between Nov. '11 and Oct '12 (so whoever wins next week) I will be contacting you to get some high-res, print quality photos. I'll be making a 'GBody of the Month' edition for 2013. If this is you, go ahead and send them.

ALSO: Anyone who WASN'T a GBotM, Feel free to send me your high-res photos, along with some info about the car, and any additional info you might want in the frame. If I get 12 (or 24, or 36) decent photos, There'll be another edition

IF you were in a previous edition (one of the four), I will be re-issuing those as well. So if you want me to update (or change) the photo I have on file, or the info thats listed there, just sent it on its way. If for some reason you want to be removed from them, just let me know.

Some Questions that might need answering:

  • What is "high resolution?" -- Print quality, meaning enough pixels so that when its blown up to 11 or 18 inches wide it doesn't get all blocky and "jaggy". The best quality would be the files straight from your camera itself. a 640x480 web resolution photo won't cut it.
  • What file sizes? -- I have my mail server set up to bounce e-mails over 10MB, so if your photos add up to more than that, you'll need to split it into separate e-mails.
  • What will they cost? What sizes? etc. -- I don't know yet. I'm trying to find someplace that'll do "on demand" printing of stuff "magazine style" rather than the big heavy expensive ones from Cafepress.com... They'd be cheaper this way. I'll provide more info on this when it is available.
  • When will they be ready? -- I want to have them available by Nov. 1st. We'll see. You'll know for sure when they are ready!
  • Where do I send my photos!? -- Send them to me at [email protected] or [email protected]

DO NOT post photos for submission as attachments or inlines in your replies to this thread! thx!

Whoops, guess I didn't say exactly, did I 😳 At your earliest convenience. Preferably by the 19th (this month). If I need to extend the deadline to get enough cars then we'll do that.
 
I've got a couple (thx guys!), and will be getting a hold of the GBotM guys this wkend.... send em in!
 
Email sent.

thx guys, I still haven't tallied up the GBotM folks to get them in on it, but the pics are rolling in.

One of you guise (I hope) sent me a 'secure email' that had a link that is asking for a password, which I of course don't know....
