Title: FWDLK Calendar Idea: NO PRINTING!
Good idea, but there's one thing you're overlooking. The only technical difficulty you might have with a print calendar requires you only to turn it right side up. With software, its never that simple, especially when you've got things changing (like Windows Service Pack 2 which includes a popup blocker and makes older versions of some programs useless).

I have an idea for a different way to distribute the ?annual? car calendar.
How about considering an alternative medium to print? Like electronic?
I?m thinking of, say, an applet that could sit on the PC desktop. When you
double-click, it would open into a calendar view for the current month.
The featured car for that month would display above a calendar view.
You could roll your pointer over icons located on any dates that have a
Mopar/fin factoid or additional picture which would open in a popup of sorts.
All the same information that was in the print version.

Somebody has to have written a piece of shareware that does something
like this, with family photos or the like, yes? We could distribute the file
via a download link on the fwdlook website. I mean, the computer IS
the other thing our members have in common, after all. Certainly it would be
more fun to be able to hang something tangible on the wall in the garage.
But the printing hassles sound increasingly like anything but fun.

P.S. We could name the app ?Fincarta?
