Try Lulu for your project. Most of it can be done online and it is a publish on demand service. People can order from Lulu.com, so you don't have to worry about overstocks and distribution. I have done books with them.

http://www.lulu.com/author/create.php

A great idea.

A vote here for the playing cards. I'd buy some if you shipped to the UK.

Calendars only last a year and have just 12 pics on. Cards last a lot longer and have 52 awesome photos.

Would be so cool to have a photo of my own car in a set of cards.

I don't think Playing cards would not be the best idea...sapose there is a picture of a Black 72 convertible on the ace of spades? then the others players would know what you have?

well, it seems playing cards would be the favorite to show alot of cars....

so now the thing we have to figure out is if we want to choose more than 1 deck

i would say we should have 2 decks..... stock and custom

custom would be exterior body mods/rims/pipes/etc.....


maybe we can do an engine/suspension set too.......


figure the pics will be small so i wont be able to combine pics on one card.....


i can setup a few photobucket accounts and give the password to those interested..... i will have standards for pic sizes/etc....

this is what i will setup for card decks


1. stock c3
2. custom c3....exterior body mods rims/pipes/color/etc
3. engine/suspension/race.....clean/painted/exterior/roll caged


remember these pics are gonna be small so the better the image the better the print......

i will find out the format in which to upload the images...dpi/size.... this will help me in the long run....

once we agree on the 3 deck setup then i'll create the accounts.... if there are any other suggestions then let me know.......

remember that we would need 52 pics per deck.... all different images so .... 1 per car/per section

hopefully we all can enjoy this
