Oh, hehe, don't worry about it. ^_^ If we still have months, you can change as many times as you want to.

I think this sounds pretty cool! Can I take October? If possible...

This is a great idea Bella! I think I'll try an August pic this year. ^^

JANUARY FOR ME!!!!!!

Bella Mist · **Posted:** Sun Sep 27, 2009 9:00 am

Edited list goes here:
~January --> Selena-chan
~February --> Ki-kun
~March --> Blue
~April --> Vervain
~May --> Bella Mist
~June --> Ren-chan
~July --> Eternalbeliever
~August --> Reu-nii
~September --> Ma-nee
~October --> Kyuu-kun
~November --> Kanako-chan
~December --> Piggy-chan

Also what should be the deadline? What do you think about the middle of December? I mean 12-17. So we can have two months and some days to complete the images. And also I'd like to ask somebody to help me figuring out the size of the images (I hope you understand me ^^;;).

And we only have two months left!! Fill them up!

we can follow last year's sizing. I think that was a good size to get good quality prints

THat list is pretty much filled. I would suggest waiting for 2 more weeks or so and if noboty takes the remaining 2 slots, open it up for people who want to do just a general dream picture with our mascots

April! April April! April is a beautiful month~! Almost as beautiful as meeee~.

Bella Mist · **Posted:** Mon Sep 28, 2009 8:43 am

Then April is for Vervain.

Ma-nee said that is was too big, and I can agree with her. It was too much, and maybe we can't fill the space up. So we thought about a smaller size, but if nobody will help us getting the right size (as I can't do it... xD;;), then we'll stick to the last year's.
Also many ppl's printers couldn't print the too-large pictures, because they ate up too many ink.

And yes, we also thought about inviting non-mangaka readers to help, but as only one month left, I hope we'll find a mangaka, who can draw it. The limit is one more week, and then I'll send an e-mail to somebody! =)

I was thinking more along the lines of getting mangaka to do more than one picture like we did last year. But the second picture could be a dream manga picture with our mascots instead of a picture of your manga. Of course, if you have more than one manga in the dream manga, then that would work too xD.

I think the dream calendar should only have pictures from the mangakas =_=

wrt sizing, for quality prints, you do need pictures to be that big (my printer prints at 300 dpi for regular prints) but what we could do to get rid of that problem is to make it into a pdf.

Vervain · **Posted:** Mon Sep 28, 2009 5:45 pm

Does everyone here have software that can easily print PDF's~? Though, admittedly, that would be most people since they're more accessable now.

But if sizing is causing this much debate, wouldn't it make sense to offer more than one size option for download (proably not less than 100dpi, unless there's a desktop version...)? Plus a pdf so I can send it for printing a shiny pro calendar~ Fufufu~.

yay~! I want to make a shiny printed pro calendar as well xD
I have pdf software

Blue Light · **Posted:** Tue Sep 29, 2009 11:03 am

MARCH!!! Can I take march? Are all the spots gone???

Well, I'd be happy to design the calendar days again, if that's alright! I have PDF compatible skillz, so that would be ok. Let me know if you need me.

I'll edit my post later but for right now......CALL SEPTEMBER! 8DDDDD

So~ Here's my idea.
What if instead of having to put out a full illustration we have everyone draw one or two of there characters in full and color. Then have them all together in on major poster and at the bottom have the month with the dates and a little side with the character(s) for that month..... uh...yeah.... look some thing like that ~>

Hope that makes since. xD;;; Lame idea feel free to trash it. 8DDD

i like the idea~

and is better~i hope it can make it as a desktop size so that i can view it everyday~>w<

Bella Mist · **Posted:** Sun Oct 04, 2009 8:32 am

Okay, well. All the months are gone, the last one, March, is for Blue.

And what do you think about doing a desktop size and a smaller one, so the smaller can be printed and used? I like this idea, and you?
Also I sent PMs to everyone who takes part.
