Map of the festival
For
wing vendors
Please
only sell wings and wing-related items at the festival.
:) You could post a sign describing the other things available
at your main shop, though!
I'm
not trying to turn a profit off of this festival. I just
think it'll be good for us, collectively! Any money I
make off of booth fees that goes above and beyond the $40,000
cost of the sim rental will be donated to Child's
Play. Here's how booths will work:
- Cost
is $1,000 per booth for the length of the festival. Due
when the reservation is placed. (See note below about profits.)
- Since
it's first come, first served for reservations, please
reserve A.S.A.P.!
- There
are still booth spaces available. Then I'll start a wait
list.
- A
booth is 20 meters wide by 10 high and 10 deep.
You can reserve more than one if you want; I'll group them
together.
- Each
booth will grant you 100 prims to build vendors with, or
100 256x256 textures, whichever comes first. For reference,
a 512x512 texture = 4 256x256 textures. I'm trying to keep
texture weight down to avoid lag.
- Also
to avoid lag, please don't use temp rezzers or
actively flapping or animated objects (beyond those worn
by visitors!)
- It's
not required, but I
suggest sticking with single-prim vendors. That way people
can easily see all your wares at once after the textures
load, rather than having to page through a multi-vendor.
If you do use a multi-vendor, please set it to silent or
whisper mode.
- Please,
no hovertext on shared (side) walls.
- Please,
no passive landmark or notecard givers. Instead, I suggest
including a prim in your booth that they can click for
a landmark to your main shop.
- I
can send you a notecard-giving poster to promote the event
in your shop!
- Set-up
will be all day Friday the 18th. I'll check booths as they go
up to make sure they meet the guidelines above.
