Photograph by Ms Spiffy I have a fascination with Time - not only do I collect clocks, but often have pondered philosophically the question of "What is Time?" 
This month I made 3 different calendars to share with you (calendars being just one way that we humans measure Time).
This is a transparent calendar for June 2004 which I did on my computer which you can use. HERE The examples of calendars that I hope you will look at are only to give you ideas and spark your own creativeness. One can make flowers, lunar, kids (they love to see their pictures:-), pets, veggies, birds, insects, etc. etc. I'm sure you will think of many other things that interest you when you make your calendar.
Here are the three calendars that I made: First calendar I used a (non-working)audioscope to make the solid black line. This calendar will print up full page on an 8 x 11 but the audioscope (of course) will not print but you could use a "gif" here instead. I chose to leave out the lines as a couple of the cells looked rather "squished" (on webtv) and I didn't like that. I also used the same jpg as a background and again used a webtv only code of "transparency". Calendar # 1 The second calendar I also used a background and made the dates and numbers using tables. This calendar is smaller. This would work for a webpage but the background will not print up if you try and print it. Calendar#2 Calendar number three - I used the transparent calendar that I made with one of my paint programs on my computer (see above). One can change the dimensions and produce a variety of different looks and subjects by varying the placements. I made a banner for the top and decided to put the Little Mushroom People photograph on the side. Calendar # 3
Here are some sites about time, clocks and other information which I found interesting. This link site has a variety of clocks, counters, countdowns etc. on many different subjects. HERE Philosophy/Scientists/Time HERE Information on how man first marked time and early calendars
