Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

I hope you are keeping track of who is doing which welds, some look far better than others. (for grading purposes)

Just saying

 

If you wear flotation pants, make sure you also have a flotation jacket too, or bad things might happen.

 

Hey... Everybody starts somewhere! And... depending on the day even the master has welds/food/paint/etc. etc. that looks a bit rough. This is going to be great. This is going to look great (better than dents I think.) This is going to fit my budget great. This is going to fit my Tacoma style even better! Once I get my Hard On on who is gonna know?

 

With your tire storage area/ tire ring, did you make it big enough to fit a 37?
Just in case you would ever upgrade.

Asking for a friend.

 

Yes we did... because enough is never enough.

 

I knew you would.
I just had to ask.

 

@Pixeltim - Just went through the events page for finding calendar pics, just a quick group of some I thought were calendar worthy or had real crispy focus needed for the print format. Unfortunately I have to go do actual work now so no more play time lol.

For some reason I missed the discussion on calendars last year (probaby hadn't figured out how to subscribe on threads or whatever). I'll take at least 2 this year.

 

I like that bumper @Supr4Lo

 

Stoney Ranger in Moab showing us how to do it, using A-Trac.

 

My buddy Florida Dave joins us twice a year at Windrock in his 4Runner and makes everything look easy.

 

Is that Poison Spider?

EDIT: A-Trac F'n rocks.

 

Images only need to be 300ppi, which I believe most phones, today, are more than capable of.
The higher the resolution the better because all images will lose quality as you increase size. What might look good at 5x7, might not at 8.5×11. Should try to output photo in intended finished size and if emailing you may need to compress the file before sending or you 'could' lose quality just via email.
Offset presses print gloss at
175-200 lpi.
A calendar like yours I would look for a wide format digital press.
Amazing reproductions.

 

I think so.

 

I print them on my Canon Imagepress. It does a great job!
As for photo size, it’s best if I can get the original picture right out of the phone or camera. Uploading to TW seems to degrade the quality. I have multiple ways to accept pictures, and Cameras&coffee has a google site that’s great for storing the pictures too.

 

1200x1200?
Yes....that will do!

 

Since I don’t know how this works, do you announce the final photos before printing? If you end up choosing any taken by my camera I can share the original high res versions as needed. TW uploader downscales to like 1300px long edge I think, lots of pixels lost.

 

I hope so! That's the only camera I carry.

My calendar picture from a few years ago was a cropped cellphone picture.

 

I think Tim should decide the photos used. I liked the surprise last year when the calendars came.
That's just my opinion.

 

Tims make the best decisions, after all
