    Buffalo Sabres 2010 Calender

    Here is my first attempt at Photoshopping a Buffalo Sabres calender. I always loved these as a kid. I hope the times and dates are correct...what do you think? I didn't want to make it too busy. I'll be working on one for every month...I'll take suggestion also.

        He should have put Connolly in it with Myers and then you could both take in to your respective bathrooms.

        Nice job though.

            it looks good. I would put a solid border around the whole thing in black as the transition from the white on the printer will be better. I don't think you want the white to look like a border.

              I'd say take out the photo unless it's the main focal point in the background.

              And/or darken the background to better contrast the "gold" squares.

              I don't wanna show you up or be "that guy" but I'll give it a try too, or maybe we could collaborate and alternate months or something.

                I darken the background and put a border on it. Zooming in is your friend especially when you are dealing with lines. I'm going to keep making these because it's the only way I'll learn. If you make them for me, I'll never learn. Thanks for the advice.

                  That is pretty awesome. I am going to print these out on our color printer and put them in our IT office.

                        I wonder if I made it too dark for printing.

                          Came out pretty well. Would probably be even better quality if I didn't print it off a 5 y/o laser color printer.

                            Background color could be a little lighter but overall it came out well. The numbers and details would pop out more with a lighter background color.

                              I wasn't meaning to force you in to taking help or anything, just asking before I make one and look like a douche but I respect that.

                              So good luck on the next ones.
