Below are the final picks for the 2011 Geckos Unlimited Calendar. If you do not see your photo here, it's probably because it was either not in perfect focus or it didn't meet the resolution requirements, or it was not really a calendar material.

Once again, just a reminder that for next year's contest, please be sure to shoot photos with the maximum resolution that the camera will allow. Remember, you can always reduce the photos, you can't enlarge them and still have a print quality image.

Job at hand - We have to select 13 photos that will make the calendar.

how to vote?
Take a pencil and write down 13 of your favorite photos, then vote for them! Easy!

RULES:
1. Vote for your favorites. Top 13 pics make the calendar. Top favorite makes the cover

2. Feel free to invite your friends to vote on this contest, however telling them to vote specifically for your photo will get you disqualified. Links to this thread will show up at the bottom, so please no funny stuff.

3. Top 3 get a free calendar shipped to them.

4. In case of a tie, to simplify matters, I will make the final selection.

5. Voting will close in 7 days.

6. You can only vote once. After you press VOTE you cannot change your vote. Please be sure you make 13 selections ONLY

7. Enjoy the eye candy !

Hi Marty, some great pics this year. Only thing i wish to comment on is the scalation of some of the pictures... Some of the dimensions aren't right, also with our picture. Is it possible you change that? If you want fixed dimensions for the calendar you might have to crop a few of them. Thanks in advance!

Yes, of course, I'll take care of all the cropping if needed for the calendar. No worries.

Okay, cause some of the pictures really look crappy now, no offense... We know some of the original pictures and they look totally different. I see some weird looking heads and stuff now. For us it's more difficult to give a good judgement on the pictures like this.

There's some amazing photos in here! However, some are definitely not resized to maintain the original aspect ratio. Photos that don't look right to me are 2,4,11,12,14,20, and 26.

I was wondering do you have to vote for 13 pictures? what happens if you vote for less than 13? will you be disqualified?

I don't really get it anymore, I thought we were supposed to send in square pics:
The finished photos will be
12" x 12" in. at 200dpi. This translates to an image 2400x2400 at 200dpi.

Same here, I sent pic with 1:1 ratio and, well, if that hatchling would have had that head....:shock:
I agree with what has been said. Some pictures, especially portraits, look really crappy that way.

One question - will we blame the people who voted for their own pic in the end?

I asked, because there are some phenomenal pictures and I would like to know who took them.

And I voted for the pics I like and not for the pics of friends.

AFter the contest is done, everyone is welcomed to reveal which photo was theirs...honestly, I don't even know who is who. I dumped all the photos into one place and renamed them all...I'll have to dig through emails and pick out the people that made it into the calendar.
