Questions about the next LEC Calendar

Postby Specky » Thu 13.03.2008, 15:23

LEC Calendar 2009..

I'm after ideas...

Last years was OK.... ish...

So I thought with a bit of planning we could come up with a corker...

And on top of that I think the LEC is a decade old as well...

So what would you like this year.... A3, A4, A5..

What would you like to see more off...

What changes would you make...

or what could I do better..

All constructive ideas welcome and some of Geoff’s as well.. :wink:

Don't start a list....

It's not in the group buy thread and Aliwyn will get all upset.. :roll:

A3 Landscape

What would you like to see more off...

Well, I have recently set-up a rapport with a Midlands-based modelling agency. So perhaps the product needs 'fleshing' out a bit. :wink:

What changes would you make...

None. particularly.

or what could I do better..

That's easy (but I'm not knocking you here), make sure all recipients receive their Calendars before the year begins. But, starting this thread now should alleviate this problem. I suggest you go to print in September - latest.

A3L on A3L.
Turn the existing calendar through 90 degrees. Whack a large landscape picture on it and have the dates like we have now along the long bottom frame edge.
I particularly like the black border, but perhaps the font of the dates could be more prominent: larger or bolder.

Just a reminder....

The weather is all over the place at the moment....(Wind, Snow, rain)

So it's a class time for some wicked photographs....

You just don't 'get it' Gary.

The Elan handles well, so you are less likely to 'lose it' than a mid-sized family car (unless you go mad).
The chargecooler is more effective in cold weather.

3) If we had to pick a LEC birthday what day would it be...(one for Doug maybe)

4) Are we ten years old in 2009...?

5) Should we allow Medina green in this years Cal?

I know... we're all equal...

but some are more equal than others...

Now back to the questions... :wink:

Or choose a colour for a month... then vote for the best in it's class...(A competion ...well it would be for our pink freinds)

Oh and please don't group the whites with the silvers... Australia could be hard to beat...

or the panel could choose again and an independent could vet the prototype...

I'm easy...
