I am fond of making nontraditional styles of calendars, including the design offered in this post.  This style uses a photo and calendar combination which looks like a Christmas ornament when completed.  A full year of pages like this, using different photos each month would be the basic cost of $36, beginning on whatever month in the year you specify.  If you resell your photo creations to a few of your friends, you can recover the production cost quickly.  This design would also work well as a print, mounted in a conventional 8X10  frame.

Ornamental Calendars

Ornamental calendars make a nice eye catching design.

When creating digital photo calendars for the digital picture frame, some presentations may be accomplished using a sequence of images like the one shown in this post.  This is true for any product where changes in the image are needed to achieve the desired result, such as iterating pictures, traveling date cursors, or switching between photo, calendar, and events.  Some interesting effects can result using these techniques, but there are some production cost trade offs for producing the end result.  Digital Picture Frame Calendar Designs

Changing calendar sequences require more images for playback.

For consistency in my postings, and to help prevent information overload, I often create items on the site with similar font characteristics.  In this offering, I have focused on using a different font than most of the other calendar styles shown this month.  If you have a font you prefer, and I have access to it, I can build a calendar image using the font style you prefer as well.  This is just one more dimension to the idea of creating completely custom products for your enjoyment.  My works use ideas, content, matting, layout, fonts, colors, resolution, presentation, and composition that start and end with the best utilization of your photos.  Your payment is not due until we are ready to deliver the finished product.

It is easy to get a beautiful custom calendar product at Matte Watch.

Some of the best material in calendars often relates to humor.  In this post, I have provided a conceptual layout for a photo humor calendar.  Such a design would depend on your photos or cartoon art.  When you supply the grist, I will fire up the mill and create a design to suit.  All we ask is that you keep it clean…perhaps a difficult request these days.  I can help write captions for humorous images if you want me to try my hand at it.  You always have approval of the end results.

Humorous Calendars

Need a punchline for a potentially funny photo? I can work on it.

In this post, I have demonstrated a “bubble” photo matting technique in the calendar example below.  With so many different kinds of calendars and formats available on the site, I think you can begin to see how much more interesting the idea of custom calendar making can be for your photos.  The process might cost a bit more than a quick print or generic print you can find elsewhere, but there are a number of advantages you cannot get anywhere else.  With the store calendars, and lots of other sites, you are locked in to buying a calendar with only the current year’s worth of pages.  My flexible creations let you buy a full 12 months of future and current pages without having to get months that have already passed!  This means you don’t have to scramble to buy a calendar in January, and you can start your calendar any time of the year.  Believe it or not, this benefit seems to be lost on many calendar producers due to the way they create, market, and supply their products.  Your pictures are worth a little extra effort and care, so think about starting your calendar purchases with me.

When you would like to have a calendar for work that includes some monthly job humor, I can put one together for you.  In this post, I worked in some job hunting humor I hope you will appreciate in today’s job market.

For those readers who are looking for a nice calendar, but do not want to buy a digital picture frame, I can offer designs that meet the need.  In this post, the design works well as an 8 X 10 print, as a screen wallpaper, and as a digital picture frame image, all in one.  Using the 8 X 10 printed version of the calendar, framing the image in a conventional frame makes a nice visual alternative to tacking up a paper calendar on the wall.  That’s what I call utility.  As always, my creations focus on the photo as the central reason for the design, so each custom image is as unique as your photos.  No matter when you buy, you will always get a full 12 months worth of future calendar pages when you buy a calendar from us.

Conventional Frame Calendar Images

This design works on a lot of different presentation levels.

Sometimes there are nice effects that can be created by utilizing a photo on multiple levels to make a calendar design.  I call this post a picture in picture calendar.  The outer most matting is made from the photo included on the calendar, and colored to present a nice effect for this inspirational design.  If you would like to receive a steady stream of monthly calendar pages, or have me design a calendar page from your photo each month, you can join my calendar delivery subscription service to get 13 months for $39.  These pages make great presentations for your digital picture frame and screen wallpapers for your computer to dazzle your friends with designs I have found nowhere else.  Thanks for stopping by.

When you are looking for a nice greeting card, and an inexpensive gift for a friend or member of the family, consider my greeting card calendar idea.  This design could well double as a card and a gift when you provide the recipient with a full year of colorful calendar pages that start on the person’s birthday, anniversary, or other occasion.  Best of all, each design is unique, and you can provide the photos that help your friend or family member recall all the good times you have had together.  The cost of a full year of calendar images is $36 when 12 photos are incorporated, or $3 for a single month page.  What can I make for you?
