Discuss Calendar Contest Participation Poll

Hey everyone! There's been the idea of offering a monthly calendar contest for TF.
Each month there would be a theme given to participants and they would create a 1280x1024 pixel wallpaper using this theme and put the appropriate calendar on it. Then voting would take place and the winner's wallpaper design would be put up for free download by all TF members.
There are several technicalities to still work out, but what I really want to know right now is who would be willing to participate on a monthly basis.
If you are willing to put time into making a completely original wallpaper calendar once a month, please select "Yes, I will participate"
If you are NOT willing to put time into making a completely original wallpaper calendar once a month, please select "No, I will not participate"
By selecting yes or no, you are NOT obliged to participate or not participate, but I need a general idea of how many people I can expect to enter on a monthly basis.
This poll will be up for a week, so please vote soon and let other know about it. :)
Thanks! :D

Oops...seems I missed this by half a day. Anyway, I didn't get the chance to vote, but yea...I'll do it as well.

Okay well.. thats six people who will participate. Okay, well lets go ahead and start this mini-contest, lol.
Make a 1280x1024 pixel Wallpaper (Don't use google to just find one, thats cheating)
Put a [b]June[/b] Calendar on it somewhere, either the entire image, or in a corner, or in the middle, it doesn't matter just as long as its visible. :)
Same rules apply as all other contests
-Do original work
-Don't use gross images or words
-stay within the restrictions
-When posting an entry (Post in this thread) Just post a link, no image.
[color=red]EDIT: No theme this month, just make sure all images are safe for work, no pornography, etc[/color]
Entries are accepted until the end of May, then the winner will be posted :)
Questions/comments, lemme hear em! :)
