Title: idea: TSC 2008 calendar... plus an edit
Post by: Cutiefox on October 27, 2007, 05:46:20 pm
After going through numerous calendar stores and not finding anything of interest, I had this idea:

We could have some interesting screenshots and arrange them into a calendar format [Like the printable kind on Sonic Channel]! Of course, these won't just be normal screenshots of the character going through the stage as usual, but of a more TSC theme, including shots of stuff like the superbounce from SA2(B), The mysterious capsule out of nowhere from Sonic Adventure's Final Egg Sonic stage, The Team Blast Glich from Sonic Heroes etc...

What do you think?

EDIT: I guess I have a pretty good opinion on this idea from people, so if anyone wants, you can link to or attach any 'worthy screenshots'. For easiness reasons, please have the shot as big as possible.
And they can be from 2D or 3D games.

I like the idea. We could also mark arbitrary TSC themed dates such as Rolken's birthday, the anniversary of the site, and the last recorded championship for some games. I assume we'd charge for this?

It's not practical, but it would be cool anyways and I'm sure a few members would buy it just for laughs.

Or we could give free calendars away, just like we planned on doing with the TSC tshirts idea that went nowhere. Perhaps we'd send notable members a bundle, and include a whole bunch of random crap like a TSC frisbee, the proposed TSC DVD, and a hammer with the word 'ban' carved into it. The problem being where we'd get everything. Anyone willing to do stuff?

XD It would be rather awesome to make money off of it! [assuming most most people even care or have money]
Indeed, the laughs might be abundant with the right idea. :O

T-shirts I find easy to make, the problem being able to have a design for them...and having a good reason to tell my parents I need that special ironing paper. A TSC DVD? I actually could learn how to make something like that pretty quickly, if I have whatever files and find out if there just happens to be a simplish DVD editor/creator on my computer ['cause I've seen something like that once]. Frisbee? Funny idea, but might involve lots of money...same thing with the ban hammer!
In short, I have too much free time for myself. :P

There is no such thing as too much free time.

Anyways I like these ideas. I would like to have a TSC calender in my room. And a "Ban Hammer" would
be lol, so would a frisbee.

:D Thanks! While the calendar pages Sonic Channel has are pretty nice just because it's Sonic, you need to wait until the end of the month to see the next month's page. And with them only being pictures of the characters, it's a tiny bit bland. But with a TSC calandar, there would be 'action for every month'! And random TSCers will go, 'I know the dude who did that!' and so on... *Goes off into dreamland*

Who wouldn't want a Ban Hammer? XD
You live in Chicago? You guys have such an awesome China Town!

Fixed, at least for my situation.

Also some things like superbounce would be kinda hard to screenshot without getting the point across, same with TBG really.

I think the idea of making a DVD of our most awesome vids (read: almost all of them) has come up. I think a lot of new computers are coming out with a Windows DVD maker (not on Linux obviously) or something, so something amateur isn't out of the question. :o

Speaking of which we totally need a :o on the calendar. >_>

Love the idea! Can think of a lot of things that should be added on there.

Also I bet 100 rings that SkyLights will post in this topic mentioning Tikal and that she has to be in the calendar.

I'm thinking it could follow this general format [attached]
Of course, it would be much better looking than that if the idea were to set sail...

Cookies for anyone who just happens to be able to guess what I drew in that sample :B [hint: In SA2B]

Super Bounce. Needs better art though. :(

Edit: And by art I mean lining needs to be better and it needs people good with art to work on it. I'd vote for SkyL but, we'd have to meet some demands regarding Tikal. >_>

If you think that my sucky vid is awesome, then you should watch insane vids like this one (http://youtube.com/watch?v=wL0rmDHgRX8). And that guy says that the world champions get +1.000.000K points combos. xD
