             I GIVE UP... I gave up... I tried again...

Sounds like a plan. Either that, or stop doing it all together.

  Lynda, posts some pics of your new one. Maybe it will be a good one to start with.

I think Holly the guitar would be more fitting. There are pics of her in the pictures section.

There for a minute I thought GOTM was "Gripe of the Month". Duh spelled backwards is... stupid. :bgrin:
Larrivee L-03 w/Gotoh 381 tuners (African Mahogany/Sitka)
Collings OM2Hc (EIR/Sitka)
Schenk Ophirio (Sapele/Cedar)
Bourgeois 00 Custom (Mahogany/It. Spruce)

I noticed that Ponte's L-05 is dubbed as Jan-Feb GOTM.

So we might be voting for March since it's way past mid-Feb... and there would only be 10 days left of it.

March GOTM - Holly - the guitar!

Yeah.  :+1:

Hate ?   no.     Envy ?  Most certainly    :roll

how about we have a entry every month..
Every month we make a thread Larrivee FEB.(or march) GOTM

Rules:
- Larrivee guitars only
- Maximum of 5 entries
- TWO PICTURES MAX
- Entries will stop once we reach 5 or the 7th of every month, whichever comes first.
- Poll will begin when the entries conclude and will last for 1 week(or 5 days...)
- Winners must wait one year(or six month) to re-enter. (Let's be fair)

This way... we will have the GOTM by the second week of every month.. at latest...
and we all get to vote for the GOTM!

Heh, you may be smarter than you give yourself credit for. We do gripe every month until the pic is changed.

You could start the process in the middle of the month so you would be able to post it on the first of the month.

Would you consider this the GOTM?  I reshot it different from my othe family photo... What do you thinK?

[attachment deleted by admin]
A bunch of great guitars I don't deserve and a gaggle of fly rods.... Aint life grand?

Who cares!  Let the mods take care of it when they get to it...there are plenty of good looking guitars to look at in the picture section....go play your axe and stop worring about when you get to look at someone elses.. :?

Well a multiple guitar photo has not been used before for GOTM but there is nothing against it in the existing rules (such as they are)   If the forum members decide to take the selection out of the hands of the forum admin. then I guess you can do whatever you want anyway.  I did sort of like the way you could go back to the "hall of fame" and review the past pics (before someone comments on it, no it's not because I have one there)   Recognition for your photo talents and your guitar are always welcome an coveted so I understand the frustration with the fact that the GOTM has not been consitent along the way.   If the forum members decide to choose the GOTM rather than letting the Amin. do it then you can make up whatever rules you want I suppose:  even have a Guitar Collection of the Month.
I just like seeing nice guitars photographed with skill no matter what the format.

Just my random thoughts on the matter.  I know the collective wisdom of the forum will come up with a reasonable and workable plan.

Maybe we could have some feedback from the mod's but I assumed they did not have a hand in it and Zach is just to busy to take care of it.
If that is true then maybe Zach could turn it over to the mods and they could take care of it.

I rarely see Zach here anymore.
