Mine arrived yesterday. Great job. I wasn't expecting the dealer discounts to be on there. That is a definite plus. Well done!

 

Yes the vendor discounts and offers is something new for this year. Be sure to make use of the discounts whenever you can as the vendor participation helped to drive the cost of the calendar down this year. Also, if you use any of the discounts/offers it more or less pays for the calendar on the first use

Thanks for your support of the site and enjoy the calendar!

got my free copy - I think it looks great

 

Very nice, it will look great in my office. I do wish it were bigger however.

 

I've heard the request for a larger calendar many times. I'm considering it for the future but will need to sell all the calendars to consider it seriously. Unfortunately going to a "normal" sized calendar will raise the cost more than double. This means an outlay of more than $10K so I'll need to insure that all of them will be sold

 

Well, I'd buy two if that helps !

 

I bought six, so I've done my part.

 

If you buy 6 more, you would never have to turn the new month over, you could just preset all 12.

 

Very nice calendar. The Mini enthusiasts at my company were impressed also!

Of course, I prefaced showing them the calendar by saying that they haven't seen anything this cool since the old SnapOn Tool calendars...

 

Thanks for the great compliment I'd also like to thank Sherill (sagworks here on NAM) as she really made a big contribution to the design and layout this year. I'm looking forward to what we can put together for next year's calendar

Last year's calendar was great. This year's blew me away. I am very impressed with the photography, the surprising amount of content, and the improved graphic design. It is really a wonderful piece of work, and I can't wait until January to put it up on my cubicle wall at work. I'm sure to get lots of comments from passers-by.

GREAT JOB to all who worked hard on it.

 

I concur - the photography in this year's calendar is flippin' awesome!!!

Great work, NAM! Y'all made TSW's HQ look a whole lot more stylin'!

 

I just want to thank Mark for taking a lot of care with the photo processing in preparing the photos for print.

 

Gotta second what Dave said. The colors look vibrant where they should and subtle enough where it's called for.

It IS a MINI calander afterall!

 

Very nice, yet again. Great work by all!!

Keep them small though, any larger and they won't fit in my special NAM calendar area.

Beautiful pictures, great Mini calender with one exception IMHO the hole for hanging should be at least the size of a hole made by a hole puncher.

Which is what I did was to punch larger holes for hanging.

 

This is a new form of feedback for the calendar The size was made for a push pin. Exactly what size of push pin are you using?

Thanks!

Mark,

on the larger size issue: Yes, bigger would be better to see all the great photos, but I like the current size.

I put my calendar on my cubicle wall at work, (which is already very cluttered). If this went to a full-sized calendar, it would be much harder to find room for it.

Plus, the OBVIOUS... it's a calendar about the MINI, which is a car smaller than all the others out there. Why shouldn't the calendar also be miniature, when compared to typical calendars? That's one of the things that makes this calendar truly unique.

So my vote is to keep the current size!

 

I retract my previous request. I can live with it being smaller.
The pictures are just so great that I wanted to see more of them.
namvet66 must be using like a 16 penny nail to hang the calendar - doesn't want someone walking away with it.
