Enter one photo per month by uploading your photo below. There is a 8MB file size limit for uploading.

You may have to resize your photos OR you can upload them to another photo sharing service and then use the sharing links provided by that service to post your photos on the forum. If you don’t want to sign up for a free flickr account you can email the photo to: crabstreetjournal@gmail.com with your Name and Title in the Subject and Description in the Body of the email. Someone will manually add your photos to the thread.

*Photo resolution should be large enough to print at 11.5 x 9 inches (3300 x 2700 pixels). Landscape (wider than taller) photos are preferred because they fit the calendar template better

*Photo DPI should be between 100-300 for quality printing

Monthly theme suggestion:
December – Winter, Holiday, Snow

December runs one year behind to allow us to have our calendar ready for purchase before the end of the calendar year.

So for example:

December 2016 photos will be voted on this month as normal and the winner of that vote will be the December crab for the 2018 calendar that will go on sale December 2017.

Non participation months:

If there is a month where no photos are entered, random photos will be selected by the CSJ

admin from previous entries to fill the vacant spots.

Cover crab:

The photo for the cover of the annual calendar is also chosen by vote. All of the monthly winners will be entered in the year end voting, including the December winner.

Merchandise:

The winner of Cover Crab is awarded with a free copy of the calendar. Anyone may purchase a copy of their own from our Cafepress store.

Items featuring individual winners will be available for sale as well. You can request your photo on a specific item by contacting CSJ Admin.
