No more NAM Calendar contest?

A quick search tells me that NAM doesn't produce a calendar any more. I find that hard to believe - it's the only kind of calendar I would ever buy!

Any chance of it coming back?

Heh, I totally missed your post.

I'm not totally sure why it went away, I think it may have been related to a lack of sales of the calendar. Let me speak with the powers that be and see if we can't get it back.

I can understand if it was a sales issue. Maybe there could be a yearly NAM screensaver contest?

After speaking with Motor_On, it turns out that the calendar was lost in the switch over to IB. Mark (NAM's former owner) made the calendar happen year after year, then when he left, the calendar died. We are going to bust our humps hoping to get the calendar back for 2011.

Sounds good! I hope it works out - the shots from those past years were really, really good 'cept our Gen 2's didn't have much of a chance of getting in.

I agree - it would be great to have it back. I bought 2 of the last one...

I'll second that. I've really missed my NAM calendar this year. I hope to see it return for 2011.
