I'm not criticizing Chris in any way, form or fashion. Sure we all have lives outside of this forum and some of us have busier lives than others. But it doesn't take much time to log on and type a quick explanation and be done with it. Even if I do something that accrues me no profit, I still have a responsibility to do that thing well and professionally.

Hey everyone.

First of all, let me apologize for the lack of communication. This was never intended and it was unprofessional to leave you all hanging.

A few things popped up in my life that took most of my time and focus away from hobbies. Ive always been a family man, and I had to put them first. I am terribly sorry.

I just picked up a new computer with new copies of the Adobe CS suite.

All the images sent are still in my email, and the ones from this thread have been saved.

As josh said, he gave me a website to come up with an alternative, which would be much faster in design time. I just dont know the quality nor shipping time.

It may be easier, that way I can order a super small batch and when it sells out, I can submit another order online.

Last year I took a hit as I ordered the same amount as in the past.

Once again, I really am sorry. It was never my intent to just "bail". I hope my reputation here has not been altered.

Don't worry about it man, I'm sure we'll all be happy with the result! I should pick up a few more from when I was in the 2012 calendar, a 2013, 2014 and 2015 one when you're done. I'll make a huge order!

I love the fact that this is still going on. It has been years since I've frequented this site and even longer since the last time I purchased one of these calenders. I hope it is still worthwhile for you to do this.

Im waiting on one more image before it heads to the printer.

I proofed one out today for color and it looks good. It'll be the same binding as last year. Comb versus staple. Allows for the calendar to sit flush versus out from the wall.

Awesome man! That was your 666th post, if you care to believe in superstitious numbers.

Can't wait to make an order!

File is off to printers. He is just printing them, Im doing the finishing. It should make it so I have them in hand Thursday. If I do, I will stay late and get them done. They will be bound the same way as last year with the comb bind to allow it to hang flat on the wall instead of popping out a little.

I ordered a limited batch of 50.

Im working on the order page now. I will allow pre-orders to get them out ASAP to everyone.

I reduced prices to $12 each plus $3 shipping. Pick the quantity on the button and it will give you the price.

Ill update again as soon as I get the calendars in hand. (I hope to have them tonight to finish them tomorrow!)
