Roberts, any chance you could set up a ebay auction for the calenders payable with paypal?

I belive they can handle the electronic delivery for you also.

no, read the info >_< taken from the website:

This product will be sent electronically, so upon purchasing this product please choose the following delivery method:
Local Pick-up / Free P&P


Looks like the calendar is digital so it will be delivered over the interweb :withstupid:

It might be useful to give people an idea of the format, file sizes etc?

I'm sure someone could look into getting it printed if there's enough interest. Last year's calendar was printed but not everyone followed through on their order and you can't expect Roberts, or the forum, to risk taking a personal hit in the pocket as well as put in all that great work.

If anyone knows of any good digital copy company that produces Personalised photo products - T Shirts, Mugs, and of course calendars it might be possible to organise a group discount as the best way to do it >_<


Format sizes are clearly listed on the website, and you will be emailed all 12 images!

I'm going to have a look at printing this week, if I get time! It's going to be £10 + though as it will be getting 'one printed at a time', so the mistakes of last year are not repeated!

well if people want printed ones I'll try and sort it next week, they may be quite expensive though due to 'one off' printing!

I'll put my name down for a printed one, even if you have to get them done one at a time. :withstupid: Much rather have it on my wall than my desktop background.

Can we not have a list... and people actually pay you before they get made? Give people a deadline for paypalling monies?

explained in the best way possible... a story!!

I get a list of people who want the calendar, lets say it's 20, so I go to a printers to get a price, it's £200 for all 20, I let you lot know, most pay, but 25% of the list don't! Right, so never mind the 25% of people who didn't cough up, I go along to the printers with my £150 to get the 15 payed for calendars printed! But the kind man in the printers says its £180 for 15, 'why?' I ask, he reply's 'because the more you order the cheaper it is per item, so 20 works out cheaper per print than 15'. 'Damn, that means I have to go and collect more money off the 15 who did pay' I tell him, or on the other hand I could just donate £30 of my own money!

Hope that makes sense...

I'm not being 'arsy' but I've put a lot of thought and my own personal time into the calendar, there is a good reason that this years Calendar was designed as a Digital Calendar and it is the same reason that means if a printed version becomes available, it will be priced as a 'one-off' print. After the disaster of last years Calendar, which is why the forum has not done an 'official' calendar this year and is also why I offered to do it for them (for no reward), means unfortunately you can't take people 'list credentials' seriously!

For the time being there is the digital one available and if I get time to produce a printed one, I'll make that available also!

I'm still happy to pay whatever for a printed one, just so you've got me in mind :-

Quick question about the digital one, it says 10 days delivery, it isn't seriously gonna take 10 days for you to email me it is it?

The delivery period of the product is set to 7 days, not sure where you found the 10 days? And like all delivery periods it's set as a 'save my bacon' if things go wrong.
