[QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [QB] OK, Mojo, you've REALLY got to do something about the people who distribute/promote your products. I looked over Brisbane for the last month for this Calendar... every book store, calendar store, newsagent, calendar stand did not have ONE copy. They had the TOS and TNG and Voyager ones (at a few). No Ships of the Line. I finally tracked it down in ONE place. At a few of the other places I asked if they knew of it - in their catalogue it and DS9 wasn't listed under Star Trek and the title was "Ships of the Fleet". Not Ships of the Line. I have yet to see the DS9 calendar. I have to collect my thoughts on the calendar - and post a special long posts - just a few qualms but over all [b] I LOVED THIS CALENDAR TO BITS! [/b] I became all excited at every page I opened. I have read here where people didn't like the black and white stills - can I just say they are CRAZY! I don't think the E-E has ever looked as REAL as it has in that centre-page spread. The "Challenger" I was a little annoyed at - it looked hasty... i.e. you can clearly see the "Enterprise" labelling on other sections of the ship - which made me look at the main 'name' and the "Challenger" looked FAKE - it looked like someone had just typed the word over the finished picture in an art program - it did not look part of the ship - and the "Enterprise" labelling elsewhere seem to lend creadence to this. OK I'm journeying into a full blown post here - which was not my intention - but I think that the 'Challenger' thing was probably my biggest problem. I thouhgt I should post this now, since a thought came to be just as I was turning on my computer where you said that you were going to go back to the 'ship against black space pics' PLEASE PLEASE [b]PLEASE[/b] DO NOT do this. Some of the suggestions I made for the Unseen Frontierr I have seen in the calendar - so now I can go and think of other possible ideas! WOOHOO! Loved: The BOP attacking the out post - I got goosebumps at this pic! Same with the E-Refit in V'Ger. Qualms: The Klingon ship going down in flames - nice idea - it just looked a little... comical - or 'dinky' or something - i.e. it didn't look real - maybe if we saw it in the clouds of the planet - not from the surface where we get objects to compare it size to. Or something. I LOVE this CALENDAR! I love the 3 minute exposure shot of space dock! (Something REALLY REALLY nitpicky... did you make a motion blur on the spacedock doors - since they seemed to have closed since the Galaxy Class ship had left! ;o) I ADORE the Workbee-before-start-of-day-pic... this is very simple but to me is probably the best of the calendar. It is something REAL, like every-day life in the Federation. It also looks VERY real!!!! Just a question - did any of the workbee numbers have significance - I saw a "007" in there ;o) Thankyou - and please more calendars like this - I loved this edition. Andrew P.S. It looked as if my post was bigger than I thought. Andrew p.p.s. I have just another tiny qualm/question - the phaser strips - especially on the Galaxies... why are they 'flat' like that - i.e. not corrugation like they are in the 'real-life' models or on TV. They just aren't smooth - there are individual banks - that make it look corrugated. Andrew [/QB][/QUOTE]
