What aspect ratio is going to be the final format (for cropping)? 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, etc.?
The image file formats accepted?
The file size limit?

Thanks.
 
The basic answer is 4:3 aspect. Horizontal / landscape.

Bottom line: submit what you can. Julie will crop to fit if needed.

Don’t let the following details scare you off, but for those who want to know, here are the details …
    • Aspect Ratio: 4:3 (Horizontal/Landscape)
    • Target Size: 3375 × 2625 pixels.
    • Minimum Size: 1688 × 1313 pixels.
    • Resolution: 300 to 600 PPI
 
see below, a unique 21' C Dory, has travelled twice across the USA and found her forever home in Connecticut, now docked at the Marina making memories :)

Just bringing this back up. I have a bunch of photos I hope to start working on sending to Julie in the next week or so. (Right now, been focused on some engine repair work on C-Traveler.) When do the final submissions have to be made? Colby
 
So sorry for the delayed response. Julie has already put the calendar together for this year. It is available as of 10/29/26 at https://www.lulu.com/shop. Search for "C-Brats 2027 Calendar".

I am currently checking to see if we have a promo / discount code, but you can use "Early20" to get 20% off. I will officially anounce the calendar and any other info in a new thread.

Any photos not yet submitted can be saved and submitted for next years calendar.

The Early20 is not working…
