Got mine today. Wonderful as always. Nice to see the memebers photos on the pages. It is proudly displayed on our fridge. A big thanks to Brad and Designilla for all the hard work and effort you guys have put into all these calendars. Maybe it is time to pass on the torch. Thanks again, virtual beer for you!

The one that lacked transparency. Pay attention.

I'm looking forward to getting mine. Glad that things cleared for the guys to get it finished. That's a real blessing.

Glad you all like it.
Because this is the last one, zilla allowed himself to get more artsy fartsy with it.
It may not be quite as functional as we have been used to but it sure looks good.

Love the Usual Suspects page.

My UTE never looked so good.

But then there is that one picture that didn't make it.
Just that one.
The one that now, sadly, most will never see.

Got mine yesterday before I left for home ... just when I needed something good to happen for me. I nearly had a backhoe roll over into a deep wastewater lagoon with me in it. 'Took the rest of the day off after taking a Xantec, then found the calender. Very nicely done guys. Thank you so much for all your work. I worked in graphic arts for many years, so I know what goes into something like this. Excellent job! Sorry to hear you won't be doing another one, but I completely understand.

Got it yesterday, another fine example of the expertise of this board's members.

Steve and Brad have done a fantastic job on the calendars over the years. If this is in deed a swan song, then in it's a HELL of way to go out.

I've got mine out here on the other side of flyover land. (Maybe they've dropped Stephen's off on the way). Beautiful job 'Zilla on the design (I like the new format too), and thanks Brad for running the store. I've got one of all of them, but this calendar really shines.

I've got all of em, too. This one is great.
Brad did a great job of organization and shipping, and Steve did an outstanding job with the graphics and photo choices.
This calendar was well worth waiting for. I hope those who expressed their unhappiness (among other, uglier things) with the delay think it was worth it as well.

I looked and seem to make it until at least July.

I too, have all the calendars. The problem with them is they are really too nice to write on. What they are tho', is a fantastic keepsake of the OFC. Something very special.....

Got mine today. Thanks a lot, Brad and Steve for your fantastic work.
I'm a bit sad of this is the last one, it was always nice to see the guitars of others, but maybe another one will continue this fine tradition. I'd be very lucky.

It looks like they have just about all reached their destinations.
Still waiting to hear from "downunder".
And Miles... you did get yours... right?
.
Thanks for all the thanks.
And I'll say thanks myself to Steve (zilla) for spending all that creative energy over the years. It's the reason the OFC Member of the Year trophy has spend the last year on his wall.

I just played the part of accountant and carnival barker. It was through Steve's efforts and his industry "connections" that allowed us to consistantly receive a quality product we could all be proud of.
