(and now you do too :D)
That can be fixed, by just making the 'R' the same color as 'iders'. Of course, that might then be interpreted as FJ Riders. :?:

Alright guys, we have a week left on the poll. Get votes in and remember, you can change your vote and pick up to twelve.

Wayne's out to an almost insurmountable lead. But there are some ties that need to be broken! Who's going to make the cut?

172votes / 12votes per person = 14+ people voting? :D

That's less than the number of people submitting photos.

Remember to edit your vote so you have all 12 votes cast. If yer in Chicago, do it twice and also vote for those that are not active on the board. :mrgreen:

There's no consideration for taste around here. I'd gladly withdraw my puny entry...there are others far more deserving.

It doesn't help that your picture is a portrait orientation. It will certainly lose something trying to make it landscape.

True, maybe if there is more than one orientated that way they could share a month with two side by side? Maybe I'll make the "honorable mention" collage on month 13?

OK, this is the last day to vote.

I need you guys to send me the high resolution versions of your photos. Everyone, not just the winners. I'll see what I can do with what I have.

Send them here: nhfcalendar@gmail.com

I'll try to have the calendar ready to order by the weekend, assuming I get all the high resolution versions I need before then.

If my photo is ties with gramps and FJrob's and one of us doesn't make the cut, I ask that you withdraw my entry. Both gramps and fjrob's is better than mine.

You keep saying that but I disagree. I love your photo. Yours was the first box I checked off.

Again, they are all winners. I will make it a point to try to incorporate the FJR into some pics next year specifically for the 2018 version of this calendar.

At the risk of becoming even more disliked than I already am, this is the FJRiders forum calendar. I would prefer it if each winning pic at least had an FJR in it somewhere.
Never run out of real estate, traction and ideas all at the same time.

Man, you are going to be disliked even more than me on that other forum.

I'm pretty sure you're going for the pity vote.

Or maybe it's a FJ Riders and I don't see any FJ pictures. :sherlock:

I understand, but your votes should reflect that. Rally enough members to your cause and none of the non-FJR will make the cut.

I'm not typically a stop and smell the roses kind of guy. Actually the only reason I took the picture that I submitted was to prove that I actually road at EOM last year.

The thought of the 2018 calendar will be all the motivation I need to go for some cool shots in the distant upcoming riding season.
