Reminder : PT Dog & Cat Calendars

I am hoping to make calendars again this year - I wanted to remind everyone to get to snapping some good pictures!

A few tips/ideas:

Outside/natural lighting always turns out best! Using your flash can sometimes drain out the colors, create alien eyes, etc.

The less clutter, the better. Try simple backgrounds, scenery, etc. Make sure your pet's face is easily visible - close-ups are best.

Take your pictures and the largest possible setting on your camera - the bigger the better it prints!

If you want your pet featured in a specific month and have no ideas for a picture - try taking some holiday related photos - bunny ears for April, snow for Winter months, leaves for Fall, etc.


I will not be accepting pictures at the moment, this is just a heads up!

Great! I think I actually already have a picture of Star that I'd like to send in when you start accepting pictures. :)

Oooh I DEFINITELY want to give it a shot this year! I joined in Oct last year so I didn't get a chance to enter

Ooh yay! :D Out of curiosity, when will we be able to start submitting pics..? I hope we can still submit them up to July, because I get my new camera then, and I wont have a camera until then :(.

I'm glad to hear you are going to do this again, Kay! I love my PT calendar...I have one at my desk at work, and one in my kitchen at home!

Oh yay I'm in time this year!!

Woohooo :D. I actually have a good idea for the BCs for October (It will be their 3rd Bday on the 13th).

And i will start saving up so i can order a couple ;).

I accually wanna get Hobo in this time!! (And of course the puppers too!!)

You do great at this stuff, Kay!! Thanks a lot for the heads up!

:) Ok I will be getting some good snap shots done.. Thanks for the reminder..

I need to get a new camera! I hope I get one before we have to start submitting.. how many entries per person?

Last year there was 1 entry per person, I believe I'll do it the same this year. Make more room for everyone else.

Great!! :D I'll try to take a really good pic, but I don't know if I will be able to get the calendar, though..
