View Full Version : NMS 2012 Calendar



EcosseGP
6th December 2011, 05:38 PM
Well folks after not having the time to trawl through the website for months I noted that there was an idea for a 2011 Calendar that didn't really materialise last year so thought it might be an idea to see who's interested in one for this year. Having just completed a few others for other friends and forums I thought that some on here might be interested in one for NMS.

Due to the restricted time constraints the emphasis is more on including a larger number of the members cars rather than voting for the best MINI photo's submitted. This way I may be able to include more members cars and whilst there will be photo's and cars that are no doubt better than others I've found that its sometimes about the club as a whole and all the members being equal and also included in whats happening.

To make it clear I am not doing this for me (as I've already done my calanders for 2012) but I thought that I might be able to put a smile on folks faces seeing their car on a Calander along with other friends / members MINIs. I've attached a couple of photo's of the sort of thing I'm talking about ..

321632173218321932203221

Having already ordered other calanders I can tell you that should they be ordered they will not be available until the first week in January (unless I can pull some strings) however if everyone wanted I can order the calanders with the starting date of February 2012 so they run from Feb 2012 - Feb 2013. The cost would be about £14 but needing to get around takers of between 15-20 to make it happen and once ordered it can not be cancelled.

This calendar relies on "you" the member wanting it to happen and wanting your car included as I'd need photo's from you to put on the calendar so have a quick think about it and if you're in get a photo of your MINI (favourite/funny/arty/otherwise) ready to send to me ...

This is just a suggestion at this time but if there's enough interested I'll get on the case straight away. If you wanted to go with last years "voted" pictures meaning a single picture per month the cost would be slightly cheaper but the photo's I think are still on the forum for viewing and the calander could be a done a bit quicker ad the photo's are already readily available.

NOTE: Having yet to venture onto an NMS run I do not know members as such and therefore in making this calendar I will not show favouritism to any particular member new or old. It is merely a bit of fun and a chance to display your pride and joy either on the wall at home / office or in the locker room. Like wise if you send in a photo of yourself sprawled naked over your MINI don't complain if its used although some form of censorship will be applied !!

Defo be interested in this one. Nice one.

Davy,

Great idea and I for one (despite not having a mini before Crombers reminds me again :rolleyes:) will be interested in 2 ;)

Well done for taking this on and hopefully the nms faithful will get behind it :clap:

I'm up for it. I will try and send some photos over to you. I will take 2 copies of 2012, if it goes ahead.
Might be worth a phone call to Peter Vardy to see if they will contribute, for a mention on the front cover.
Still have 2 mint copies of the 2009 calendar which had some great photos.

Excellent Idea... :clap: ...Would certainly be interested in a copy... :yes nod:

As for Peter Vardy, I could send an email to who I know that is head of marketing if you want, Just an idea, as I would be more than willing to help you out if I can... :thumbs up:

To be truthful I'm not too sure given the timescales if we have time to get sponsors involved at this late stage .. I have a few days off that I can hopefully sort it if it's popular enough but don't really have time other than to deal with members albeit was a good idea Robsco ..
You can ask them if you want but just don't 100% guarantee anything to them right now as I was just trying to bring a bit of Christmas cheer to NMS members ..


It's not big .. But it is quick !!

6th December 2011, 08:23 PM

Wouldn't be a problem Davy and as Malcolm mentioned it in his post thought I would ask you... What would you like me to ask them as I know not to guarantee them anything and I'm all up for Christmas cheer for all on NMS, I have the contacts in Peter Vardy as it was myself who got them onboard to be one of the sponsors on NMS... :thumbs up:

Even if they bought some of your Calendars for their office's to promote NMS even more - Let me know as I can get him to get back to me quite soon... :yes nod:

Still very much interested in a 2012 Calendar and have no objections in you using my photo's from what I have on the Gallery Showcase section or I can send you some over, what ever is the easiest for you... :thumbs up:

I need to take more arty, shiny and scenic pictures in future! Lessons from Greig to follow I think ;)

You're welcome to use pictures of mine that are on here. Would it be easier for you if people chose a few of their favourites and sent them to you rather than you having to trawl?

14th December 2011, 09:18 PM
Would love to have our photos included, but don't know if there are any in the Gallery. Happy to send some through,or post some up. Will you not need originals to get the best quality?

Right folks I'm going to order 10 of the calendars as an initial run (taking a chance that at least 10 of you will want one .. I'm afraid after playing about with the costs (initial calander cost, postage then me having to buy envelopes and post to anyone) they'll be £12. I realise it might sound expensive to some but I might actually making a loss trying to do this for everyone (The ones I do for the lads at the football cost £16)but if you want one let me know it'll be first come first served to start with and if there's enough demand I'll do more .. They start from February 2012 - January 2013 so there's a little bit of time for getting them printed and to you.
As I mentioned to start with "I" have selected the photos so if anyone is unhappy then thats my fault .. I have just selected folk at "random" as it said it my initial post I have only met a couple of folk from the site so I have been in no way influenced by picking "mates" ..
There have been a few changes to the photo's used but in general the first set that have been ordered are set out as follows ..

3257325832593260326132623263326432653266

I MAY and I say MAY be add / remove a month and put YOUR own car in but it would incur additional cost of about £2 after the initial run .. and it would involve you sending me or posting up photo's of your car that you would like used. I don't have time to confirm the design so it would be left for you to trust me that the layout would be ok but this MAY only be available after the first 10 have been sold ..

Anyway anyone interested in the first run ... names below

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

I have not used the NMS Logo on the front page as I didn't have time to confirm with the mod's its usage plus it was too low res for me to use. I figured no one mind me using one I made up and as its not "Official" NMS mechandise its prevents me getting into trouble for copyright issues (if there are any) ..
Sorry if your cars not in the first run but like I say think about the above and maybe I can personalise one later on ..
Cheers Davy

MINI William - Yeah saw the thread for it and hoped you would'nt mind if I used the photo's .. Just put your name against it as you started the thread.

ELFMAN - Sorry that I didn't use your photo's I came across them late on and had done a fair bit of hunting and sorting stuff before then .. but like I said I can maybe change a month for you to include your car instead of another one if you want me to after I get the first 10 sold ... I've got your page done ready for it anyway ..

Obviously all those that have confirmed they want a calendar will have one ordered .. I'm not too sure how you usually deal with the payment aspect of things but if you have access to PayPal could you send the payment as soon as possible to Davystout133@btinternet.com as a gift payment please.
I know a lot of you don't know me but you have my word I will not let you down and im sure Craig and Rob will confirm this. The delivery at the moment is expected on or about 9th January but I will keep you informed if that changes or they come in earlier ..
Any problems regarding payment please get in touch .. Cheers Davy

Thanks for all that sent money and PM address. Like I said I'll keep you all informed when they're in and get them out to you the following day.
If everyone's happy with them this year just keep your galleries up to date and I'll do another one next year if you want. Can't guarantee that cars used this year will be used next year but if I get over 10 orders I'll be able to definitely do you a calendar including your own car so worth a thought through the year getting the odd snap or two of your wee buggy. Remember they don't have to be professional just in focus !! If anyone else wants one there's still time to get them ordered and for it to be with you for the calendar starting Feb 2012.

Davy, that would be great :thumbs up: - tell you what, I'd feel a bit guilty about 'bumping' someone's fab motor, but if you can fit me in somewhere after the initial run, I'll take 2 calendars.
Just one wee point - and forgive me for being a pedantic b******, does the main photo look a bit 'compressed', making the car look taller and narrower, or have my eyes gone weird? My original is lower and wider! :smilewinkgrin: Money-wise, if you PM your address, I'll send a cheque - I'm not on Paypal or any of that electronic money stuff.

If it's not possible, I'll just wait for 2013 - when the car might look a wee bit different...

Right folks sorry to disappoint but your calendars will not be ready for February .. They'll be with you in the next couple of days !! Thought we might have been cutting it fine but managed to get them early .. Typical so you'll have a month to wait before they can be used.. Sorry.
I hope you all enjoy them but I did my best in the time we had to rush them through. It's actually cost me money to do them for you all so please any problems go easy ..
All posted first class today and I have one spare that I ordered for someone that now doesn't want it .. Please someone take it .. It's lonely without a home. I've got so many others or I'd have kept it ..
Hopefully we'll do another one next year but I'll need to be better organised .. Enjoy

Disappointed to see that some people featured in the calendar didn't buy ...
But I can assure you that if you all like this calendar I'll do another run next year and do individual ones right from the start ..
Can hopefully incorporate them into my other run so keep your photos up to day through the year it'll make it easier come Oct/Nov next year !

Thanks again for all your efforts, will be looking out for the postie tomorrow.
If you do it again next year, I think it should be one calendar for all, an NMs calendar, not loads of individual versions. Or keep one month, say June, for one individual picture for each purchaser. Hope that makes sense, it's late.....doh!!

No like I said at the start I was making it for everyone on here not to make money. As long as everyone likes it and enjoys it through the year that's all that matters. Feel bad that we didn't start it in January but thought I was cutting it too fine.
Everyone that's seen it seems to like it so that's all that matters .. Shame you'll need to wait to see it but might be worth the wait !!
Thanks for all the positive comments and here's to a good NMS 2012 ..

Good to see a wee min Scotland calendar! It's good to see as I know how hard it can be putting it all together.

I help run another forum for the 5 series BMW and I have done a calendar for that for the past five years!

If you need a hand with a 2013 calendar, ( without me stepping on any toes ) I'd be happy to help.

I usually sell about 50 a year where members submit photos of their cars, then we vote and the highest ones get in.

Here's a graphic showing the 2009 calendar and all the months. It is A3 and a month to a page!

I had 2 calendars which Davy sorted for me at the last minute - one had my car in March (front view) and the other one had it in August (back 3/4 view), like you said! Confusion over.
The 'August' one is now in Douglas Park MINI, Hamilton as a 'Ta' for fitting my troublesome Carbon steering wheel bottom spoke insert F.O.C.
