Hola Tracy, 

Just to add another  option:

Print Shops, the photo department in some big department stores,
Kinko's 
type 24-hour copy shops, etc., frequently offer a service of making
calenders.  
While the quality may vary,and while it doesn't really fit the
Tulipmania of 
meteorite commerce, an alternative is that you can bring 12  pictures
and get 
your own calendar made.  So the June Calendar shot can be  that June
meteorite 
hunting vacation, your birthday month can be a picture you  find of the 
meteorite that fell on your birthday, an anniversary, etc...  February
can be that 
shot of you and Bob Haag in the Desert Inn in Tucson   - the
possibilities are 
endless:)

The calendars are not to much more  expensive (and sometimes cheaper),
you 
get the personalized touch, and there are  extras to look for:
1. captions under the month pictures (Matteo: only  ourselves to blame
for an 
error:-) )
2. captions on individual days (watch  out Anne...there's an birthdayish
idea)
3. slick finish
4. Spiral  binding

For those of you that like to modify photos, maybe a big  meteorite on
your 
favorite kid's shoulders like Atlas holding the  world....

And that wouldn't stop us from buying a commercial calendar,  too,
right?  I 
think (not positive) that since it is for personal use you  could use
any 
picture you find to stick up in your kitchen on the calendar, but  of
course you 
are making a commercial calander you are more restricted as to the
images.

Finally, I am sure there is a better service if someone has a  moment to
find 
it on the internet, where you can design all these things in the
comfort of 
your own home on your computer and upload the images and text...click
"make 
calendar,, put in your credit card and shipping info and then pick it up
at 
your doorstep) anyone wanna look for a reasonable link?

Saludos,  Doug
(Still making my own greeting cards after all these  years)
