2014 DSMtuners Calendar Entry Information

[2g awd dsm]

Going to have my buddy get some shots of mine. Engine pics welcome?

 

[snowborder714]

You're welcome to take pictures of the engine, but we won't be using any in the calendar.

The only way an engine picture could possibly make it is if the picture was of the whole car with the hood popped or off or something. We're looking for cars to use, both still and action shots, not just parts.

What about the cover? I could Prob get a line of dsms on the blyeridge Parkway tomo

 

[snowborder714]

If you want to submit something like that, go ahead. We vote on which one we think is best for the cover so it could be a group shot or a single shot. Just keep in mind the limit of pictures you can submit.

Planning to submit some picture from rallycross events if you don't mind the mud/dirt/such. The pictures all have numbers on the doors as they are required to race, is this going to be an issue or shall they be edited out? I know you said no photoshop, but not sure about numbers.

 

[snowborder714]

Please! I'd love to see some rally shots

Leave the numbers - it's how you'd see the car during racing, and that's what we're looking for. The Photoshop rule is there to keep people from submitting crazy made-up photos, dropping their car in some other scene, changing car colors/trying to paint match body panels, or the dreaded HDR photo that's been over done.

For some reason my camera didn't save the date when I put new batteries in. I hope you guys will still except my submissions. I got some good weather and ran out to take some pics. the date saved is the date taken. I got a clean, low mileage DSM that is calendar-worthy. If you can, just let me know and I will try to retake some more before the deadline.

I figured as much. Just gotta decide which ones now!

Rules are rules. Sorry, but if I break one for someone, why shouldn't I break another for someone else?

my camera doesn't do time stamps on photos but i still wish to submit some photos of my dsm.

 

[snowborder714]

It doesn't have to (and ideally shouldn't be) on the photo. I will be able to find it in the photo properties that are automatically created when you press the shutter button.

 

[BlackKnight2013]

ok thanks for the info. i have submitted my three photos.

 

[snowborder714]

Received a bunch of pictures so far - keep sending them in!



Make sure to follow the rules, please. They really aren't complicated or difficult, yet I'm already finding people who haven't.

Main rule broken so far - Not naming pictures with user name

 

[crash89]

Once I get one of my pictures from a buddy without a water mark Ill be sending mine in! Wish I could have gotten more pictures of the car this year with the talon swap but unfortunately the car is down for the season now.

Ok, about the time stamp. My wife has a t3i i believe it does not allow time stamps. But i have a decent point and shoot that does. Just to be 100% clear. When you view the pics you want a date on the actual photograph not in the file properties? Will these dates be cropped out of the calendar? Mine show up in big red font. Ugly as hell! Hopefully there is a loophole.

I've already answered this question.

[crash89]

Just sent my three! Everything "should" be ok, they were taken with fancy cameras!

 

[snowborder714]

Anyone else??

Keep in mind, there's not too much time left to submit!

 

[josh408]

I'll send mine but not getting high hopes

 

[GSX_TC1]

Do y'all atleast have enough to fill all 12 months for the calendar yet?

 

[snowborder714]

I think we might after I remove all of the photos that aren't eligible.

 

[crash89]

Finally got the confirmation email. Hope all of mine were in specs! Cant wait to find out!

 

[95talongirl]

Were the ones I sent in ok? I did miss the section about renaming them, so I can resend them if need be. sorry about that! oie!

 

[snowborder714]

Ya, you're good MB.

 

[95talongirl]

Thanks! I owe you one for not paying that close of attention!
