Wow, thanks for all the suggestions. I had a vague idea of designing one myself (and printing at Staples or FedEx or something), as some of you have suggested, but I don't have a Mac or Adobe In Design, and you know how much
fun Micro$oft Office is to work with.
Those online services are much cheaper than I expected. As per your suggestions:
CafePress:
$20 (well, okay, that's a bit much if I'm going to be selling these)
Vistaprint:
$8 (it says
starting at. I'll have to dig to find out what they really charge)
Lulu:
$10 (also
starting at, but it looks like they only charge more if you want extra pages)
Also, thanks for the tips on the pictures!
Na Horuk, I'll keep that in mind about negative space. About seasons, I've got summer down pat, but the others are a bit tougher. The seasons aren't visually that different here. Well, I do have one picture of a chihuahua in a little doggie parka, but it's not really calendar material. Lots of disembodied legs. Awkward.
rbelfy, thanks for all those tips, too. I guess you have to be really picky when you're actually trying to sell pictures. I'll try not to decapitate too many dogs.
I'll do it in landscape, definitely, but there's one or two I'd love to include that are more square or portrait. I may have to forgo those. Oh, I'll get those model releases, too.
