I have so wanted a prog calendar and they are rare so i, with your help of course, will create a prog rock calendar - just grab an awesome pic from google images and copy and paste it here, then i will choose best images for the calendar!
 
OK here's January

@Epignosis:
 
A good calendar Thumbs Up, but I would use the Echolyn album for the month of May (Mei is the name of May in Dutch, my native language).
 
For August I might use this one instead:
 
August in the Urals - Deluge Grander

Nice calendar Alex, I wouldn't change any of them, except maybe I'd use this for August.

I considered that, but my birthday is in August.  Embarrassed

Also, I tried to choose artwork that compliment the season (cold colors for cold months, warm colors for warm months).

That's a very good option (and there are tons of covers that have descriptive qualities fitting for this game), but I already had a lot of green from March to June Tongue

Love your list, Alex. Interesting ideas there.
I would've replaced The Christmas Album with something else.

It reminds me of the woods behind my house in the summer, so I thought it was a good choice, not to mention August is my birth month. Embarrassed

I just love how prog-folk and post-rock covers describe nature... Try finding a nature-related cover in Prog-Metal! LOL

I would second that too as it is more fitting than a bunch of nudists jogging LOL and i like the Christmas Album idea of Epignosis kmore than the Jethro Tull (orrible album)Dead, and that was a great idea Epignosis too and Alex to post the whole calendar!
 
Thanks for those contributions, and I am seriously going to put together a calendar somehow for next year and the rest of this as its better than the rock calendars that magazines offer. Although the Hipgnosis calendar in this year's Classic Rock was exceptional, but not all prog of course. Any more suggestions for this calendar???
