Title: Calender worthy bike pics...
Post by Serowbot on 03/09/13 at 07:29:25

Just to take a step forward on Stinger's idea for a calender...
http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1362291197
Let's see some calender worthy Savage pics...


Quote:
One question?... (I'll put up a poll on this.)..
Should the calender be only site member's bikes?... or any Savage?...
Vote...  ;)...

Will we need owner permission to use photos?...
I think we do..
.


Pop a single pic of a Savage you like in here...

.... once we have a few dozen,... we'll figure a way to select/ assign months or whatever...

Then,.. maybe we'll get us a SS,com calender...

I'll kick it off,... with Devin's cool MX'r bob...

But what is calendar worthy? I like the looks of the beat up rat bikes and the ones in transition as well.

Yes I agree this picture must be in the calendar.. basically now you guys are doing bobbers... I only offer from himself alternative. http://cs308318.vk.me/v308318733/5998/R2fZQMq3rVA.jpg

Variety is the spice of life...  I think the calender would be best showing a range of Savages?..
Bobber, chopper, rat, brat, cafe', cruiser, fine stocker ...  whatever you like...

that, I think you can put on the cover..it's great! in it all so elegant and harmonious.

Post by LostArtist on 03/09/13 at 09:38:09

some of the bobbers and CS-1's and everything that can be done with a savage are awesome!! this an awesome idea, if you want any help with the layout/design, I'd gladly help out for free, I think this will be awesome!!  

Title: Re: Calender worthy bike pics...
Post by Serowbot on 03/09/13 at 11:51:09

Let me point out,.. to any that might have missed it...

This calender is Stinger's idea...

I just wanted to get the ball rolling...  (gotta' start somewhere)...
Let's shoot for a goal of September for issuing a 2014 calender?... (maybe a 16 month?.. with 2 preceding, and 2 post year months?)...
(Lost has offered to volunteer some time and talent,...thanks Lost)...

There is a concern about copyright infringement...
It might be best that we only include bikes and photos by owner permission...
Anybody up on that aspect?...

:)...

Title: Re: Calender worthy bike pics...
Post by verslagen1 on 03/09/13 at 11:55:50

I think limiting it to member only would limit the full scope of what's available.

maybe when the coffers are full we can create classes and vote for each class.  that way any one type won't fill out the calender.

Title: Re: Calender worthy bike pics...
Post by Greg on 03/09/13 at 14:55:20

I voted members only bikes. That way it is more personal to me. I am certain we can come up with 16 months worth of bikes from this forum. If I wanted a show bike calendar, I would buy one at the mall. Just my opinion.

Title: Re: Calender worthy bike pics...
Post by bobert_FSO on 03/09/13 at 15:14:47

I like the idea of member's bikes.  There are some nice ones running around the forum.  I think it would make for a more "club" feel.

Title: Re: Calender worthy bike pics...
Post by Serowbot on 03/09/13 at 15:41:01

I am the lone "Just voting to see the poll results.."... vote... :-?...
I added that option just for me... because I can't see the results without voting... and I didn't want to influence the vote...

... but,.. having thought about it,... and with a little bit of professional experience in obtaining copyright permissions...
I do think a members only calender, would be easier to deal with... legally...


Stinger's idea was for the price to be enough to cover costs, and add a portion to the site upkeep...

We'll have to investigate the printing and shipping costs,... but I'd like to see us stay under $12 shipped...
Does that sound reasonable?... (if we can stay under $8 and still manage a decent contribution for the site,.. that would be even better)...
If costs are too high,.. another option would be an onsite, downloadable, calender,... available for free, and ask for a $1 or $2 donation to the site...
... or maybe have both options?...

Keep throwing in ideas and thoughts guys... and pics...  ;)...
only 4 pics so far...  

Stinger,?.. chime in with your ideas...
This is based upon your original suggestion... (I'm just rollin' the ball)...
...and let me know if I'm drifting off from your purpose...  
PM me,.. if you prefer...

;)...

PS... I don't mean this as an intrusion,.. but I'm going to go through the posts and use a blue highlight to ID calender layout and production suggestions...

Okay? - Serow

I agree. We should have enough scooters of all designs right here among the group to field a very nice calendar. That would negate any copyright issues and maybe generate more interest in the site also by making a thread for the "poster" bikes for guests to view. Maybe even do a small article for each one?

My photo meetup group did a book on blurb. We had a choice of hard or soft cover. I think there was a PDF version as well. I don't know if they offer any options for calendars, but it is worth a look.

We may need to consider the photo size and quality for the purposes of enlarging as well...  Nominate any bike you think is worthy,.. but finalists may be asked to shoot us a higher quality image...

As Serowbot points out members only would avoid any legal palaver, surely

Post by jcstokes on 03/09/13 at 19:37:52

Stockers could come from Suzuki's own pics and some international flavour would do no harm.

in principle, such a value of the calendar suits me . I can not of course say for all of the rest...
and if from the point of view of observance of any of the rights easier to make a calendar with pictures of bikes members, then surely the way to do :)

With the right composition, even stockers and their near cousins can make nice pictures.  My son took these pics of my (now gone) Savage.

Aw, thanks Serowbot!

Ohio thumper, the tire is a Dunlop 404 150/90(?). It was the only brand and size whitewall I could find. I had issues with it rubbing the swing arm brace, a few minutes with the angle grinder cured that.

I think the calendar is a great idea! One of my favorite things about the "Savage Companion" CD was the member pics included and they were just displayed by year. I think a "collection of styles" from rat to stock to RYCA would be very cool!
