LS4 Front-Drives 2005-2009 - Car of the Month Submission Thread October Ed.

It's a little late so the deadlines will be earlier, plus this is a trial run.

Any car with an LS4 is eligible, just post a pic, year model, and mods.

Taking submissions until Monday, October 26th, voting will begin shortly after.

Winner will be asked to provide a few more pics and detailed info for CotM post.

Also, if anybody has the capability of getting calenders made, we could do something similar to make one.

I'll start.

Very Good pics Guys!!

We will also start a LS4 Powered calendar JP will let everyone know when were going to start voting on this.

Are we? I thought we were just doing the CotM right now. For a calendar we'd need at least 15 or so submissions for cars, some interest in buying, and someone to handle getting the calendar made. And where's your pic Mel?

I thought I would set out this month but if you want I could submit one

Holy enormous pic Batman :P

lol, sorry - they load up full size, 12mp

You'll want larger pics anyways if you actually get around to making a calendar. Large high res pics will be needed or it will look like ass.

I love my new 24" HD monitor. :hump:

Why didn't you submit that pic for IOTM over at NAIOA, Jimmy?

These aren't for a calendar.

New picture. It'll be in for next month, one of these days I'll get one!

I assume that when there is a calendar it will contain the monthly winners. What do you do when one of the winners had a low res pic submitted and doesn't have the original or never had a pic that's good enough to be used in a calendar? People aren't going to want to pay for a calendar that has some pics that don't look good because the file was too small and it looks like ass when they try to make it bigger. You need to plan ahead. Half ass planning and not thinking the whole process out before hand is why the whole thing fell through to begin with. I'd imagine you'd want the pics to at least be 1024x768. It should be all one process. Not a car of the month and then down the road decide there should be a calendar.

Have you seen the calendar thread? If we do a calendar, you would be asked to post a 800x600 pic and have a larger one available for the calendar. We would vote 3 times, top 4 of every round would go into the calendar. Doing CotF was a completely separate idea. I've been in a calendar before, that CGP one, read about it, it'll make more sense.

JP I didn't know you were in the CGP Calendar I was also. 88-96

Yep, June with this pic

Came out a little dark in the calendar, though. I'd love to find a 1st gen in good condition.

Still weird seeing my car like that. lol

Little late... oh well.
wish i had my camera when i took this and not my phone.

I really could care less how anyone does it since I don't have an LS4 anymore. Seems a little retarded though. Especially starting anything now and rushing at the end of the month. If it were me I'd just wait to the new calendar year. Additionally, you can't really compare anything done on CGP, how many members are on there? You're talking an entire website vs. one section of a forum here. Going to be a lot harder IMO doing something like this in one section with a limited amount of people compared to other forums I've seen before. We found it hard to get a lot of good submissions to even justify bringing the calendar/Impala of the Month back on NAIOA and there are a couple thousand members there. And then of the people that do submit you'll end up with a lot of pics that frankly just don't cut it. Like the pic above(sorry not singling you out Vectus I see you didn't even have a regular camera with) but a pic that doesn't even have the whole car in and has construction barriers next to it isn't what people want to see lol. The backdrop of a picture is just as important as the car itself! Good luck with it regardless.

whose car is that JP??? no way that is yours lol.

CGP divided it into 3 calendars, 88-96, 97-03, and 04-08. We only had 27 submissions in the 04-08 section, I know there's at least that here. And we get better pics if we knew they were gonna be in a calendar. It can be done before January if it gets green-lighted by the end of next week.

And I know, Derek, it's unrecognizable. :P I 'ruined' it. :-/
