Bhante,
I gave it a quick once over and it looks good to me. Thank you! Sadhu!

To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

The link is wrong - it leads to the 2011 version.
But I found the 2012 version - it looks very good indeed. I think I will use it. Thank you.

Hello Bhante,
This is a norther hemisphere calendar, and will not be accurate for those of us living in a different time zone.
January 1st 2012 in the southern hemisphere is Sunday.
Here is the 2012 calendar for those Downunder:

(I have never heard that there are different calenders for northern and southern hemisphere?? I could be wrong though.)

Have a look at the current times worldwide. You will see that this moment is on different days/dates depending on where you live.

Re: Buddhist Calendar for 2012 • 2556
Sorry Chris (and correct me if I'm wrong) but I fail to see the relevancy of latitude (Southern vs. Northern latitudes) in relation to times and dates...
Re: Buddhist Calendar for 2012 • 2556
Ok, so for instance in Honululu and Las Vegas it is still friday, while it is already saturday in most parts of the world.
But I think the friday is in all parts of the world the 23rd and the saturday is in all parts of the world the 24th... So it doesn't change anything with the calendars they use, right?
The time zones are rather a western-eastern issue, but I don't think they have influence on the calendars used.

Re: Buddhist Calendar for 2012 • 2556
Sorry all. I was incorrect. It is only if something was being broadcast worldwide at the one time that we would need to be conscious of particular differences in time-zones.
Doh!
Thanks for pointing my misunderstanding out.
