2014 Autoshite Calendar Photo dump Thread - Closed

[trigger]

Great selection but personally speaking I wouldn't want a calendar with 3 photos of the same Lada (no offence as it's still class).

 

I didn't vote for the portrait photos as I had a feeling they wouldn't fit the calendar which is a shame both of those are ace photos, maybe swap them for the next highest voted photos?

[dugong]

Thanks for getting rid of that GS picture, I properly hate it (more than the actual car, which is going some).

1: thank you for not voting for a load of portrait photos

2: thank you for doing all the vote counting and organising the poll

3: fuck you all so hard for not voting for the Atlantic in rape seed field

[Angrydicky]

Dammit, that picture of the Atlantic in the rape seed field didn't win anything. 

Also, I forgot to vote. 

 

Also, that picture of the GS is shit. 

I was quite pleased with that picture, thanks. Sadly the Atlantic is probably a bit old for most tastes here. 

[trigger]

That's spot on now, great work everyone! Now when can I buy one?!

Your Atlantic photo was one of my favourites!

I could still go rogue and set it as the picture for every month.

[Lord Sterling]

Bollocks. My car still didn't feature, in fact, not 1 Rover is featured. Good selection anyway. Well to those who won.

Send me the full size version of that please, I loved it, it was like a Paul Dubois shot for CAR in the late Eighties. 

 

I might make my own calendar so HA U LOSERS.

[Jim Bell]

None of the ones I voted for have won.

 

So much for democracy.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

you're getting democracy and horse racing mixed up

[dollywobbler]

Brilliant. Thanks for your efforts folks! Ami hi-res emailed. I'll pass congrats on to the chicken.

[coalnotdole]

I think a bit of editorial judgement might be needed when dealing with the repeats, there were a lot of good photos this year and no ones going to buy an overly samey calender.

 

Happy to send high res copies to a designated email... just not sure where?

 

PS wish I'd voted for the Atlantic i missed it off by when voting but really like the car and picture.

[DSdriver]

Your Atlantic photo was one of my favourites!

I loved the one of it in the field but thought that the bonnet up version was more Autoshite stylee so voted for that

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Me, I'll be PM'ing everyone in the next day or so.

[dugong]

Can I have a special one with the Atlantic in it?

[Cavcraft]

DEMOCRACY SAYS NO.

[Jim Bell]

+1 for Atlantic.

 

Smash the system.

[Craig the Princess]

Thanks all, with the adjustments it looks like a cracking 2014 calendar.

 

Does anyone have any better ideas on how to run the 2015 photodump and voting (if we want to do it again)?

Maybe one photo per post to photodump and that the post number is the picture number? I'll admit the 2014 voting wasn't very easy.

[dollywobbler]

I suggest we get a celebrity to choose a selection for us to vote on. Perhaps Claudia Winckleman who according to her appearance on 8 out of 10 cats last week loves Autoshite.

[KruJoe]

Erm, I don't own a Lada and haven't for a year or so. No need to shout about it!

I agree, no car should be included more than once.

 

I think we have an excellent selection, thank you to everyone putting this together.

If there any notable exceptions, it may be that someone said "that needs to be in next year's calendar" in whatever thread, but if you didn't post it across into this thread, it wouldn't be included in the voting. Remember this for next year!

[DSdriver]

...and that the format is lansdcape so no upright pics

[KruJoe]

Yep, that too. I was gonna mention that a while back, but neglected to do so before voting began.

[ruffgeezer]

Perhaps we just do one vote a month starting in January for the following year's calendar?

[Cavcraft]

/\

Defo a good idea. All pictures to be in by the 27th, voting 28 and 29, result announced 30th of each month, except Feb and December.

Wot? Who's is it then? Was is EVER yours?

Whose photo was this?

[Craig the Princess]

It was cms206,

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Thanks!

[KruJoe]

Wot?

 

My brother (another Will) nicked it from me without my knowledge about a year ago, after he blew up his Niva. He did pay me for it eventually. He doesn't post on here much, so I occasionally update the thread for it in my sig. If you hadn't kept up-to-date on developments, you could be forgiven for thinking the Samara is still mine.
