Haha, tell me about it. This will be my second year making the calendar and don't have any pics of my FD that are good enough to throw in.
Looks like everyone's taking rolling shots lately, I'll take this into consideration when I'm laying out the poll threads, some of the polls will only have rolling shots to vote on.

Please remember that you have to provide with a statement that I have permission to use the photos, if you don't, they won't be eligable for the voting process. (sorry to be picky, but photography is a business for some and I want to avoid any conflicts)
Instead of just having 7 or 8 poll threads, I was thinking I'd set up a few categories. So any of you that want to get a spot in the calendar, feel free to go out over the next two weekends and take some of these:
1. best rolling shot
2. best drifting shot (action shot)
3. best road race shot (i've seen a couple where the car is deep in a hard corner and one of the wheels is lifting off the ground, that would be sick to have in the calendar)
4. best standing still shot
5. best use of the background/environment
The 7 remaining months will be selected by whatever pictures not chosen for the above have the most votes.
Hulanfd3s - sick picture, that's pretty much what I'm hoping to get a lot of (maybe a little less photoshop), but great sky and background
I also won't be including pics that are just taken in a parking lot with other cars (non FD) visable. (see rspecfd's pic above, sorry don't mean to call you out, i just don't want to have to sort through a ton of those)
Thanks again, and keep 'em coming

Roadracing!
Pictures linked from facebook so the quality isn't great.
In the last picture Justin (not sure of his username) is in the foreground and I am in the middle of the picture going around turn eight at Putnam Park.
Hopefully you will not choose repeats of last year's calendar for this year's voting. Nothing against the previous showcased cars (they were all great IMO) but it would be nice to see different rides every year.
And I'm hoping to have a car and a camera good enough to make it to 2012 calendar
