[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

Got mine today complete with my name spelt wrong haha.

 

I can but apologise. I spelt Steve like you spell Beav and in my head that made sense.

 

I now realise "Is that with a ph or a v?" is a fine question.

"Is that Stephen with an A?" not so much

 

No sign of one here yet

 

They were all despatched together so surprised it hasn't arrived.

Drop me a PM and we'll sort it

[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

Glad they've started filtering through.

Royal Mail clearly aren't as hard pushed at this time of year as they claim

Those who have missed out (Tactical) I actually got a few extra copies of the wall version printed for exactly that eventuality. I'll even do them at the normal price.

Drop me a pm and I'll sort you out in the new year.

Merry Christmas to all and thanks again to all those who have been involved and here's to the whole thing starting again in August!!

[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

At this festive time of year it's as much about forgiveness as it is presents and tinsel.... i hope

 

While everything for the calendars is in production it has been delayed due to intial colour issues on the first sample.

This means my original plan to post last week has been foiled and i'm going to do everything i can to get them out in the next couple of days so they should, fingers crossed, arrive with you all before the New Year.

Those of you overseas it is likely to be in to January before they arrive for which i can but apologise :(

 

As said i'm doing everything i can to get them completed and out the door to you but for reasons i'm not quite sure of this year time really got away from me.

[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

^^^ These 2 orders have been received safe and sound.

 

and that's it.

boom the door is closed.

 

thanks to those who have been involved at any stage.

The more pictures the better so thanks to those who submitted images;

the more votes the more likely the best pictures will rise to the top and become the main feature so thanks to those who voted;

and finally thanks to those who have purchased.

The whole process is for nothing if nobody actually buys them!

 

The bulk production button has now been pressed.

I'm expecting delivery next week so will get them posted before Christmas so shoudl arrive in the gap between Chritmas and New Year ready for proud display on Jan 1st.

 

 

Those who have not ordered yet I have negotiated a deal on individual productions though if you still want to purchase one.

 

New cost is £18 each for the wall version

and i'm not going to bother offering the desk version.

At the moment i'm going to close the doors on Friday next week.

There's only 46 wall and 9 desk ordered so far so which is a long way off the 75/25 i normally produce.

I'm not willing to be left with that much stock to shift so will probably reduce the order to 50/10 instead.

 

We'll see

This is everything on the paypal so far so if you think you've sent a payment and should be on this list please get in touch and i'll investigate.

[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

I'm not gunna claim the process is flawless but I try to keep the calendar community friendly and try to be as inclusive as possible.

As such i try to include all models in the "winning" pictures as, to be brutally honest, that should help it sell better.

That means some of those who finish in the top 12 in the voting, but 3rd in a certain model group, will miss out.

It's a balance I try to meet and hope i succeed in, but i refer you back to the above venn diagram.

 

Picture wise yes i could limit it to just 1 picture each to stop the split voting but, again with honesty mode on, I don'l think there would then be enough (good) pictures to fill the calendar.

 

Voting wise yes apologies i did have TomR88s vote for RobClubley down as a 20 rather than a 10.

That drops Rob from top of the pile with 103 to second with 93 and promotes Simbo to the favourite pic of the year (who knew people loved big white skodas airplanes so much)

 

Jim I apologies for missing your votes completely I normally set up the gmail inbox in my work outlook at the start of the process so i can keep an eye on it; a step i neglected to do this year hence missing the email correspondence.

Now please buy one

For those who have purchased blindly i can but thank you.

Your faith in the pictures and in my ability to tie them together into something half decent is very kind.

 

that said an evening locked away and the calendar looks like this.

I need to update the dates/days to those in 2016 and update all the name tags on the pictures but the pictures themselves will remain where they are

 

 

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

ok so here we go

 

it's not final (i still need to update the days and all the image name tags but the images are sorted)

All i'll say so far is that it's going to be a race blue heavy year!

[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

Thanks John

 

Appreciate that buying unseen is a big leap so i do aim to get the design finished and posted over the weekend at the latest

 

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

purchase thread up and running over here now

 

http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/377189-for-sale-briskoda-2016-calendars/

 

should anyone wish to purchase unseen then head over and send a payment.

Alternatively the current plan is to get it designed by over the weekend at the latest and i'll post the images in the purchse thread

 

thanks again to those who have helped to it together so far

[FOR SALE - Briskoda 2016 Calendars]

Well the pictures were submitted, the voting took place, the design is in progress so without further ado i offer for sale the 2016 Briskoda Calendar!!!       

 

As per previous years they will come in either a wall hanging or desk CD Jewel case formats

 

Production will be limited to 100 copies split between 75 wall and 25 desk.

 

Wall Calendars are £10 each

Desk Calendars are £7 each

 

The above excludes delivery which is charged at £2 per order/shipment

for those who need that explaining:

 

1 wall calendar will be £10 + £2 so send £12

2 wall calendars will be £10 + £10 + £2 - so send £22

a wall and a desk will be £10 + £7 + £2 - so send £19

 

Anything outside of the norm (order for 50 off, overseas shipping) drop me a PM and i'll sort out a price before payment.

 

Payments are easiest via paypal to briskodacalendar@gmail.com

 

Sending payment as a gift so i avoid fees would be lovely but understand completely if you do it as as a transaction with the extra security that brings.

Please make sure that payments include user name, order details, and delivery address.

I will keep a list up-to-date in this thread as payments arrive and sales are registered.

 

Those without paypal get in touch and we'll sort out an alternative method

 

As said above the plan is a limited run of 100 calendars in total, so you may need to be quick.

 

That should pretty cover everything but any questions just ask

 

Final design will be posted up once i have finished it

 

These are not made or sold by briskoda, they are unofficial.

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

So 35 sets of votes in and we're done

 

Thanks for those who have taken the tmie both to submit and to vote.

Artwork will be drawn up but expect a purchase thread to follow along in due course

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

yes and no

There are tens of thousands of registered members yes,

but of those it's probably only thousands who regularly visit,

and of those i'd guess only hundreds regularly post,

and of those there are just tens who are fussed about a calendar.

 

That's not a moan i say it with no hard feelings and complete understanding.

People are interested in what they are interested in.

There are equally probably only tens who are fussed about meets, tens who are fussed about track days, tens who photoshop stuff etc etc

You truly can't please all of the people all of the time.

 

To be honest when I first considered doing a calendar I was just going to chose my favorite 12 and be done with it

However a vote seems more in keeping with the community spirit I feel Briskoda has (and removes potential for moaning about the chosen pictures)

Yes it's disappointing that so many submit pictures and then have no further input, but hey that member submitting a pic is more involvement with "the community" than if the calendar didn't happen; so i see it as a positive.

 

In past years we've produced 100 in total.

That was split 75 wall hangers and 25 desk CD case.

But they not yet all sold so I give away any remaining ones to Freedom members just before starting the process again for the next year (August-ish).

 

It's all open to change though; I'll start a for sale thread in a weeks time when the voting closes and should I have money and orders flood in for 250 i'll obviously produce enough to supply the demand.

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

30 lots of votes in and while there are some clear favourites rising to the top it's certainly not yet all decided

 

1 week left to vote

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

A whopping 24 sets of votes cast so far

Not far off the 33 total we had for last year

Keep 'em coming each set of votes really can make a big difference

[Briskoda 2016 Calendar Voting Thread]

We are about 45 pictures down on last year but it does seem that a lot of the...um...less aesthetically pleasing pictures are missing this time around.

There are still some real crackers to chose from.

 

get your votes in now or spend the 1st of the each month next year going "Who the hell thought that was the best picture!?"

 

24 hours and 10 sets of votes

at this rate we should get 300 by the end of the month..... :S
