No worries though, won't hassle you guys, go in peace.
Now, as I'm a marketing man, here you go!

Not the best photos from an iPhone, but you'll get the idea.

Yes i will be doing one every year now for the whole of the forum members that would like one, i think November will be a Good time to gather all images off every one as the whole years going's on will be there to review, i would also like opinions on weather you would like the calendar to remain the same size or larger smaller ect..

I do have the option to have small free standing desk calendars made mug's,pen's,Mouse mats,T-shirts,ect there is a whole array that i can have made so when the final images are sent for 2013 i will then start taking orders for every one that would like a calendar and any other items,
Pricing will follow in November
i'm thinking I should have negotiated a discount evaluation calander FOC as the forum sponsor.... Maybe next year

Nice job, seems a lot of happy folk with your work...
