Here's the link to Sam's discussion about photo qualifications. Who wouldn't want their corgi in the calendar over and over and over again??!!! Send in ALL your good photos today!! We don't want Sam to have to resort to PLAN B!!!!

Jan 18 UPDATE FROM SAM:

Okay folks, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now, thank you so much for submitting photos to MyCorgi.com, I have more than enough for the calendar now, so please give me sometime to sort them out.

Considering tomorrow is my B day, I will not be working on the project at all, so the earliest I can post a final list for the 365 is Friday. As far as printing goes, it should take about a month (1K-3K will be printed), so the 365 calendar will start with the month of March / April and end on 2013 March / April.

Again, thank you for all the awesome photos, it’s been a joy to work on this project :)

Jan 23rd UPDATE FROM SAM:
Here are the finalists. I will post pre-order info end of this month. Thank you :)

(see page 14 of this discussion for the photo list)

Jan 27 UPDATE FROM SAM:

Okay, all the photos went through the photoshop process, we've done some in photo home renovation / decluttering, clearing stray leaves, removed all commercial branded logos...etc. We are currently waiting on several commercial printer's feedback, once all the kinks have been worked out, I'll release the pre-ordering information, hopefully sometime next week.

Due to good business practice, we've decided to change "project 365" calendar dates to Jan - dec 2013 (not release date). I know this change will disappoints a lot of you (myself included), but our main objective for all project is to raise a good amount of funding for rescues. So in order to accomplish that goal, we need very good sales, and the result will determine if there will be another 365 project in the future. I sincerely apologize for the date shift, project 365 is still a go and it's happening.

So what about those who missed the 12 month calendar and the 365 project? Have no fear, I will release the details for project "plan B" and project "edu" in the coming months. Project "Plan B" will have a launch date of xmas 2012, Project "edu" will have a tentative date of spring 2013. Stay Tuned!

You're totally right!! If you get a big SD card you can store tons of pictures on your camera. I have a 4GB or 2GB, (can't remember without looking), and I can store well over 500 pictures plus videos--even on the biggest setting.

Thanks Snickmom. Finally an explanation I more or less understand. Seems I have the pixels right but my photos still are no larger than 3 MB. I sent a couple in to Sam, which I shouldn't have. But I labeled them with the MB so he'll probably toss the whole shebang w/o looking at them. If I have time today I'll fiddle w/ my camera and see if I can get the size right. I tried yesterday but the battery was dead. Not meant to be. I should pack it in for this year. I never tried to submit any before, but Sam worked so hard, I really want to help. Meantime, my washing machine died and I better get to work finding a replacement. Don't you hate when life gets in the way of Corgis and honorary Corgis! My mailbox is filled with emails with the subject Honorary Corgis. You're off and flying. Good job!

@ Wendy I don't usually print my photos either, but it just so happens for the holidays I had

my fav pic of Romeo made into a panel. I got the idea if I scanned it it might work, lol

It certainly is big enough and if it doesn't work out at least I gave it my best shot.

I know Romeo is getting sick of me sticking a camera in his little face! lol

He either runs the other way every time he sees it or just yawns and puts his head down!!!

Like Mom enough already.......hahaha ;)

Well I think it was brilliant. Very resourceful. I've taken to calling Rafa my little Romeo, which I borrowed from you. But he has turned out to be a real lover boy. The sweetest dog. I never would have thought I'd be describing him this way. He was the rescue that wouldn't even make eye contact with us for months. Now he just stares into my eyes while I sweet talk him and gives me kisses all over my face. He's also very gentle. Who knew? He snuggles and loves to cuddle. Lucy isn't much of a cuddler, but she's getting better. Good luck with your photos. Is Romeo in the 2012 wall calendar? I'm looking at Al now. I didn't know his real name is Alegro.
