Thanks a lot, Charles. :)
But I thought we should have the images take most of the page, not the calendar. What do the others think?
Cheers Nicole

Here the files. Basically it remains only the calendar part :-D
The files are 0.5cm bigger than the A3 format, like this the printer cut at 0.5cm and avoid any white mark at the edge.
The size of the calendar part has been adapt to the larger pictures we had.
When you transform the svg in pdf, black background usually became white, at least with inkscape, not a problem, easy to change in Adobe acrobat after.
I have few free time in this end of year, all the lessons I give are concentrated between now and Christmas, so I could miss a message on the mailing list, but feel free to contact me by direct mail.
The original file for the calendar part can be found here: http://ebookbrowse.com/bi-monthly-calendar-2012-pdf-d125676737

Dear all,
we are still discussing about the layout of the WLM calendar.
Current status is: http://etherpad.wikimedia.org/WLM-calendar
I have been talking to some friends about the design of the calendars. Two things:
- The size of the images: Is the designer allowed to cut / crop the
images
to make them fit into the design? Of course, within reasonable margins,
with
commons sense. I have attached an example of the lol porn calendar, which
I
find quite nice. But since we have different formats and sizes of images (imagine one image like this on the page:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/St_petersburg_4.jpg
/600px-St_petersburg_4.jpg), it would anyway be difficult to have all pages look equally nice.
- Do we really want these blank fields for handwritten notes? In my
opinion, the calendar should be more like an art calendar than a
"practical"
thing. Everyone carries around their calendars in their pockets, you don't need to "disrupt" the well and cleanly designed calendar by writing some stuff on it. The value of the calendar lies in the images, not in the calendar feature.
What do you think? Add your comments to the etherpad, please.
Best, Nicole

Indeed If you want the calendar to mainly be art-showing then the images should be most of the page. Mvg, Bas
