39 submissions from 20 people. Not nearly the turnout we had last year.

I'm extending the deadline by 1 month. Photos due NLT 1 September 2010 2359 EST

PLEASE SEND ME PHOTOS! Don't make me start spamming everyone who posts in the Eye Candy section! :lol: ;)

Last day. I'm honestly not sure if I can pull off a decent calendar this year with as little as I have to work with so far. So, if you have some good pics sitting on your hard drive, get them in!

Toootally missed this. The upload screen was still there so I just submitted a few. Dunno if they'll be accepted, but oh well.

Is this still gonna happen?

Alright, so I guess I owe everyone an update/explanation. First, I apologize for falling off the face of the interweb. Lol. Things have been very busy and complicated for me recently so I apologize for not keeping you up to date.
I've pretty much decided to cancel the contest this year...for various reasons, but primarily due to lack of participation. I want to always produce a quality product, and this year I didn't feel that there were enough submissions to produce the desired result. I will reevaluate the contest for next year, and let you know if there will be a calendar. I do hope to continue the calendar in the future.
Again, my apologies as I'm sure many of you planned to purchase calendars and last year was a huge success. Keep taking those photos, though. I'll reevaluate and update the website for next year soon.

Much love to the mye28 community!

Sorry Sherman and Chris. If I do one next year I'll keep all the current submissions from this year (if that's okay with the submitters).

Well, hell. I finally got the photos I wanted to submit - yesterday. Still, did we not have a dozen decent shots out of those submitted?

Nonetheless, I'll be sending some for next year. All action shots. Yes; there will be dead bugs on my airdam and one fog lamp is crooked. That's how the car was rolling at that autocross. Looking back at the first calendar, I saw there were only three people in the photos (two in my car) and only one car was actually moving at the time of the photo (again, mine). IMHO, it's relatively easy to pose a good-looking car and take a picture. Not so much when it's moving - and I think E28s look good moving. I hope the judges aren't just automatically eliminating most action shots because there are some really good ones I've seen.
