    I'd like to submit the following pictures, I only need 1 spot so i'll leave it up to "editors" choice. Please let me know if you need a higher res version, although I believe the full size one is "full resolution". Last year when I posted the pictures ended up kind of grainy on the calendar, vs when I e-mailed the year before they looked very good.

      Darn it..... got my fairing on just haven't been Abel to get out and get a good photo.
      Also mine were all taken with my 5 MP Droid. Did you try changing the settings on the camera app CY? A buddy at work has an x and he took some waterfall photos that were incredible. Even the video looked like you were right there. My bike in the Calender last year was taken with my phone as well.
      I can't wait to get the Calender! Thanks kat!

        Well, I'm not super pleased with the shots yet, so I'm going to try and get out again and get some better shots, but here are some shots in the meantime.







        And one that was actually just in front of the house, ok, how about 2.

          I have to say Cy, I do not think I have ever seen paint change colors that many shades before. Pretty wild stuff!!

                Awesome!
                Thank you

                I have a 3rd calendar planned but am still missing a couple of pics as well as the time to put it together.
                I should have it done before the end of the year... marching season has begun and other than riding, I don't have much time for anything else.

                Thank you to all who've contributed!

                          Seriously?!?!

                          So much for the e-mail they send me in July saying they're switching over.


                          Sorry for the mix up and I hope it resolves quickly.
                          Please keep me posted on how this play out...

                            Just went and checked the site for calendars and ALL of their calendars are still 2011.

                            I'll keep checking back and let y'all know when it actually DOES switch over.
                            My apologies for the mix-up

                              So will you automatically send everyone who's bought a calendar so far a new one or give a refund?

                                The calendars are produced by cafepress. Kat has nothing really to do with it other than giving them the pictures to use. If it is wrong then that is something that you have to deal with cafepress about, not Kat.
