I am using 2023Ultimate, and I also tried it in 2022Ultimate. I also checked my 2024 calendar, and the dates were correct. Your observation had me curious because I am using that script for my dates as well and I thought: oh my haven't I noticed that..... But strangely/luckily my dates with the script are in their normal places. Have you tried to run the script again, I know it is a lot of work but maybe it was a temporarily hickup! Stranger things with computers have happened 😢 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Thomas Posted Tuesday at 11:55 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:55 PM After many years of creating my own calendars, even before I joined the campus, that in my view I like layouts to be consistent with legible text throughout, as you never know who is going to view them. I have created several different shaped date boxes, personally I like the one that fills the lower half of the page, with rounded corners. Even though calendars are functional, I still like to make sure that the images maintian the main focus on each page. Wonderful pages submitted, each one a great source of inspiration. 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassel Posted Wednesday at 02:13 AM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 02:13 AM @Sue Thomas I found those supplies from the first Calendar class. And the videos too. They are dated 2012!!! That is even longer than those 8 years! Maybe I'll reuse it next year! I will definitely add a blog post for people who will want to change the "boxes" to something different. @Susan Ewart Beautiful pages. @Donna Sillia Don't apologize for that font. I thought you were just waiting for day 3 to show it off anyway. The issue with the dates and font is really odd! Glad you found a "fix". @Jacques Lacerte That light color for the background makes your photo stand out. @Ann Seeber Maybe the zoo will want to sell those to visitors! Imagine! I love your font. @Mary Solaas Even just a white background looks great with that January photo! @Anne Lamp You are using interesting patterns for your pages. Looking forward to the other pages. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan Ewart Posted Wednesday at 03:00 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:00 AM 18 hours ago, Ann Seeber said: Here is a preliminary version of my January calendar for 2025. I decided to use the Nashville Zoo theme as my granddaughter, Jackie, is now a zookeeper there. She started work in September and she and her husband moved to Nashville, Tennessee. This is her first "real" zoo and she's thrilled! Her previous experience was at Claws n Paws Animal Park in Pennsylvania which can't do the breeding and official zoo activities that they do at this very large facility in Nashville. She has started in the Carnivore House and will rotate through the various habitats until she has experience in all of them. She has sent me lots of photos and some I gleaned from the zoo's website. The font for the month/year title is Aviation Cocktail. I added the days of the week. I had a .png for it I had used in the past for my Botswana wildlife and Downton Abbey calendar workshops. @Cassel these new templates are awesome! Congratulations Ann, to your grand daughter. What a wonderful experience she will be living. And we will get to benefit from her up close and behind the scenes photos you'll be displaying. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have good eyesight 🙂 And we are grateful for Sue's eyesight! Saved my butt many times. Not to worry, there are several people in the campus with eagle eyes. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had planned on using Mother Nature's light source (the Sun) this year but it was always so windy when I wasnt working, so in the studio I went and just played around. I have very mickey-mouse light set up, but I make the best of it until the day comes when I can get some good lighting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan Ewart Posted Wednesday at 03:12 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:12 AM Here is March and April. I'm not sure what type of background I want to do, I'm trying a desaturated hue and using the fading foreground with white. If I stay with this idea I'll add some kind of texture to it as well. I have not decided on a font yet. 1 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have and do use the calendar script, it's quite quick and easy to create my own dates/boxes. Carole demonstrate creating calendar date boxes and more in her Corel you tube video. I remember it because Carole uses some of my photos to demonstrate different layouts. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharla Posted Wednesday at 10:21 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:21 AM I’m loving looking at all the wonderful calendar pages being produced – they are truly beautiful and imaginative.

I think it is just the size of the F compared to the J in January. The rest of the word needs to be moved to the left a bit. I was also having trouble with the size of the letters. It seems they only work as pixels, not points this time. @Cassel is there a new issue with font size in PSP2023?
