We are looking for 12 great images for our new 2003 calendar.

Each month's image is 11.5" wide by 9" high, bled to the edges (important detail should be in the 11" wide by 8.5" tall area). The images are full color, and printed at 150 dpi. Higher resolution pictures can be converted by us, but lower resolution may not turn out well enough to use. JPG, PNG or GIF images are best, but we can convert BMP and other formats if needed. Contact me via email for instructions on mailing an original photo -- we can scan them in for you at no cost, and return the original.

Topics: Well, boatbuilding. It can be your boat, your local sailing grounds, a great sailing shot, your original artwork, or anything else related to boatbuilding or the messing-about.com site. Funny, poignant or even sarcastic is OK, but it has to be family-friendly. For legal reasons, all people in the image must agree that it can be used. That means you can use your kids in the image without asking since they don't have a say in the matter, but you'd better ask your "significant other"! And, remember, it has to be a picture you have the rights to (no fair stealing a pic out of Wooden Boat)!

Images will be selected by yours truly. You are giving messing-about.com the right to use your photo in the calendar, but all other rights remain yours. That means messing-about.com will not use the image for any other use without your consent, and if that slick sailing magazine wants to buy your photo, you can still sell it!

If your image is judged as the best of the lot, it will be featured on the cover, and you win a fantastic prize ... well, you get a free calendar (a $16.99 value). OK, so we're not Publisher's Clearinghouse ... but the rest of us have to buy them, so quit complaining!

All proceeds from the calendar will be used to help support the messing-about.com site, avoiding those irritating pop up windows and flashing banners those other sites have to use.

Submit your entries to this secret email address:

frankhagan@ev1.net

If you have a preference for month because of launch date, birthday, anniversary or work-release

program date, let me know. No promises on if you'll get that month, but I'll try to accommodate any special requests.
