I think if you just do some edits and put pictures togather,you can use more photos.
Maybe have the top ones be for the months and have those not picked (can't call them losers, because none of them are) be used for the back page or two as a soild sheet of smaller images? Something to consider for the future maybe. I know I would be willing to pay more for more of them being used.

Oh...I think that's a great idea...Then everyone would be in the calendar.

That would be cool to use the pictures not picked as a collage for a backdrop on the last page. I am sure everyone wouldn't mind paying the extra buck it would probably cost....plus it might push calendar sales.

BTW, how much are the calendars going to cost?

I would agree with it causing more sales. Everybody would want one (or more likely several) if their tortoise was on it. Sorta bragging rights maybe?

I would also love to have a collage of everyone's photos on the back! Then, I could say Trevor was on a calendar, regardless. Get it, "on", not "in"? hehe

I agree with Robyn Costco has the best calendars for the price. I don't like cheap calendars they rip. I also think it's a great idea to put everyones tortoise picture who don't make the calendar on a back page or even have them printed on selected days of a certain month. I think they can do that. Great idea whoever had it. I do think it would sell a lot more calendars that way. Just my input. :D

Those are great ideas - the remaining photos all posted on the last page and some individual photos posted on selected days. Can Cosco do that?

I would definitely be willing to pay more for the calendar if there were a few extra torts in it..what could be better? =]

I think the multi-pic calendar is a great idea, too!:D

I may own a redfoot tortoise, but I love ALL tortoises, and I would LOVE to see ALL of them in the calendar.:D

Did Tim & Robin submit any pictures? I don't recall seeing any of their Pyxis pics in the submissions.
