Topic: Urusei yatsura calendar

[ferrango]

do you think? well, i don't think that i'll be able to place all of the calendar grids in the same place ( as UruseiNeo suggested ) but i'll see to make them bigger, and all of the same size (more or less)

@UruseiNeo: it's true, i don't like to cover our sweet Lum with the calendar grid, but if I have to i'll do it.  I can't place and size them all in the same way because some templents aren't designed to. Ex: February: it would be horrible if the table would be placed above the "photo-like" pictures. I can reduce the table a bit (just to make it more similar to the other months) and align it, anyway.

@lilwiz: the problem in April is that a bigger grid would make the image "heavyer" on the table side, Again, I'll see what i can do.

P.S.: customers are always right...

P.P.S.: thanx again for the comments!! you're too gentle!!

I just noticed this, the calendar I'm using right now,

the back of the page of one month connects to the next month's page. So like, when you flip the page up to the next month, the back of that page you just turned is part of the picture for the next month's calendar.

The bottom page is the main calendar part, while the top page (the back page of the previous month) has the main pictures.

Ya, thats right. Usually store-bought calendars (at least in Canada anyways) has one page with an image, and the other with the actual grid.

So here I am again.

I enlarged the table in April


and I put up something for June and November
June

November


The november one still needs something, but i can't find something that "fits well" into it.

As always, thanks for the attention and the comments!

Your calendar is looking really good Ferrango, especially the last two. I think I might use them for next year. Can't wait to see more months!

Oh man!!!! I'm in love with November 2010!!!! It must be because I love black. xD

[ferrango]

@cata: i like the black background too.
Always about November: is the month text a bit too up? Because I'm planning to place it on the left, a bit more far from the top border, right above Lum's hairs

[cata]

I like it the way it is.

[ferrango]

this are the last two I made.
I recycled the february template for august, since there aren't many good templates in Publisher 2007.

this is July


and this is August

[cata]

Now, I love the Lum in the upper left of July (she's in a bathing suit).

About August... I would suggest that you remove pics from the callendar itself because if you want to write something in it, it will be difficult to see the writting. Just a suggestion, though.

Adding on to Cata's critique, the yellow and purple background makes it harder to read =/

Otherwise, great job

[ferrango]

ok, i'll see if i can get some "lighter" images or I'll take them out of the template.
@sonic: are you referring to the Sat/Sun days, aren't you? I know, red and purple aren't complementar, but i wanted a warm background color for the August.
Any suggestion? PS: when I'll have finished this, i'll release the publisher files too, so you'll be able to customize all the datails that you don't like

[SonicDaMan]

I was talking about the yellow/red gradient, the red font is fine.
