There seems to be considerable interest in the 2004 calendar idea, so I’m officially kicking it off now.
First stop is the Cheesecake Calendar* – we need 12 pics of the ladies and 12 pics of the guys. Step up to the plate, folks!
No actual visible nudity please–naked photos must have the naughty bits covered by strategically placed toasters or something.
Email pictures to opalcat@fathom.orgplease put SDMB CALENDAR in the email subject line (JUST LIKE THAT) so that my filter will sort it for me. Do not put “here is my picture” or “from the SDMB” or “calendar pics” … put SDMB CALENDAR. I can’t stress how important this is. I get, minimum, 500 emails per day and I rely on my filters heavily. It is very likely that your email will end up in the trash by mistake if you don’t put the proper subject line. Also, be sure to put your SDMB screenname in the email and mention if you have a preference for a particular month.
preferred format is .png but .bmp or high quality .jpg are acceptable
You are free to digitally modify your photo within reason… for example:
Acceptable:
clear up acne, scars, moles, cover tattoos
remove other people from the image
cut out figure and put into different background
digitally add elements to the photo (strategically placed fig leaf…)
add devil horns
apply a sepia filter to age the image
Unacceptable:
blur or pixelate out face
blur/pixelate out body parts (it’s cheesy. Just put something in front of them if you don’t want them to show.)
warp body/face into different shape
apply weird filters/textures to body/face
Please do not use a mask or otherwise create an “artistic edge” to the photos–that will be something that I will do in the end and I want them to all match.
Here is a template to help you: TEMPLATE
Your image should be 2200 x 1650 pixels or as close as you can get.
*we may also do a “snapshots” calendar and/or a “page o flames” calendar.
Well, I certainly hope my idea of risque isn’t too…risque. Bumping this because I submitted something. Hi Opal, hehe. I had so much fun finding things to be strategitically placed. Most fun I’ve had with Photoshop for at least a year.
I hope you’ll make the original submissions available along with your final renditions. I would be quite interested in seeing both the before and after.
The porn store pic, you mean? I am on the left, licking the… err cough … the thing. The adult fim star is in the middle in pink and my co-worker is on the right.
(looks like I chopped off the final number!)
