None. The calendar is marked up $1 above the base price of what Cafe Press sells it for. Any profit is donated to the Wounded Warrior Project.

So only 18.00 for the wounded warriors so far? Bummer.

Another option may be to post up a link to just donate to the wounded warriors. This would be something someone could do in addition to buying a calender, not instead of. Just a thought.

There's a % commission on top of that as well. I can't remember how much but if we sell as much as we did last year it will end up at about $100; which isn't bad.

I didn't mean that as a bad thing. I just meant it's too bad cafeexpress takes such a large chunk. Because of this, CSS makes NO money and the Wounded Warrior Project only gets a buck each.

My suggestion is for anyone even thinking about buying the calender... GET ONE! Support your peeps and this site. Lots of blood, sweat, tears and money went into these cars. If you don't like a pic, pimp your own ride, take pics and then enter next year.

After buying the calender(s), if you have any extra funds go to the wounded warrior project site and make a donation. You can donate any amount. You can also make the donation to memorialize someone. For every $10.00 you donate you get five cards to send out bringing the charity to other people's attention and recognizing the contribution you made in honor of whomever you made the contribution on behalf of.

MarcS,

Whatever the total ends up being you can add 50.00 to it. If it weren't for this site I wouldn't have donated. :highfive:

That's awesome! Thank you for contributing I'm not associated with wounded warrior, but I'm a vet and try to do what I can.

Wow... Thanks for the dick comment. Didn't you say at the beginning that your picture was top 20 for sure? And you didn't make it past the first round. Better luck next year

Why are you thinking about dicks?

There's no back drop to that picture, the angle is just a boring 3/4 shot, and no photo work it's just a lame picture.

Oh and I did make it past the first round but could really care less.

You missunderstand the word hater. Your pic was a well shot picture, nice rolling, angle, awesome backdrop, and clean colors.

That september pic just really isn't very good, nothing against his car.
