Here's your chance to have your avatar immortalized on SL posters, t-shirts, and other marketing materials. If you're interested, read on!
LEND YOUR AVATAR TO US
Give us temporary use of your avatar/outfits. By lending us your look, you are giving us permission to pose and shoot your avatar for use in our marketing materials.
DEADLINE
Submit your avatar as a folder to Tanya Linden by Sunday, June 8 (See "WHAT TO DO" below).
OUR PROMISE
We promise that we will use your avatar for promotional purposes only, and that we will treat it with dignity and respect. We also promise that once we're done shooting, we'll delete your avatar from our inventory, so your avatar remains yours alone.
CAVEATS
We can't promise that we will use your particular avatar in a particular place. We reserve the right to choose which avatars we shoot and for what specific marketing purposes. However, by participating, you'll get a shot at some prime publicity for your avatar!
WHAT TO DO
Here's what you need to do:
1. If you haven't already, save your avatar as a complete outfit/folder in your Inventory:

d. In the field next to "Folder Name," create a definitive name for your avatar. Make sure to include your SL name and any other identifying elements.
e. Check ALL items that are part of your look - skin, shape, clothing, attachments, etc.
f. Click "Save." Your avatar will be saved as a folder in your Inventory.
2. (Optional but helpful). It will help us keep all your avatars/attachments straight if you also include a note card in your folder that lists all the items that make up your avatar.

f. Drag the note into the avatar folder you created in #1 above.
3. Give your avatar to Tanya Linden (Linden Lab Marketer):
a. While in-world, click "Edit" and then "Find People"
b. In the Name field, enter "Tanya Linden" and click "Search"
c. Double-click on "Tanya Linden" to open Tanya's Profile.
d. Under "Online Now", at the bottom of the Profile, you'll see a field with the text "Drop inventory items here to give them to this avatar."
e. Open your Inventory. Drag the folder you created of your avatar into the "Drop inventory items…" field in Tanya's Profile.
Feel free to give Tanya more than one avatar -- if you have a range of great looks and characters, share as many as you'd like!
