Call For Volunteers:

Diva Las Vegas runs entirely on volunteer help!

All of those great times you just had were made possible because
somebody stepped forward and made those activities happen!

During DLV, a number of you asked if there was anything you could do
to help out.

Yes, there is, and now is the time to say so! :)

Planning and organization of DLV is done mostly on line via e-mail.
It's interactive and participatory. Volunteers form what we call the
DLVORG group.

The DLVORG group is not at all closed or exclusive. With very rare
exception only, it's open to anybody who expresses interest in
helping out with DLV.

DLVORG people participate at the decision-making level, the
organizing and planning level, and at the nuts-and-bolts level.

All of the activities were "adopted" by one or more of our
volunteers, who took the necessary steps to make them happen.

If you want to do your part to make a great thing even better, to
give back what DLV has given to you, and help to run an event that
has literally changed lives, please step forward!

To volunteer, please do one of the following:

Visit the URL:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/dlvvol1.html

Fill out the screen and check a few things, click SUBMIT, and
you're on your way!

Alternatively, simply send a brief e-mail message to
dlvorg@geekbabe.com and state you wish to volunteer. (Or, just
reply to this mailing and state that you wish to volunteer.)

Please include a sentence or two stating how you are most
interested in helping out. Anything general or specific ("I
wanna plan a sky-diving party.", or "I'll help any way I can.")
is perfectly fine. Anything from one sentence to a book length
manuscript will be ok. :)

We're not asking for any kind of a major time or effort
commitment on your part. All we ask is that each volunteer
organize, or assist with one activity. That's it.

If you're a bit shy, that's fine. We'll find something for you
where you don't have to go cold-calling vendors or anything
like that.

And yes, out-of-the-box thinking is encouraged! As you know, we're
not limited to the things that traditionally happen at TG events,
and we're certainly not limited to those which have already happened
at DLV.

Thanks in advance to all who have volunteered to help out with DLV!

DLV 2012 photo staging:

Early this coming week, everyone who was marked as "present" on our
DLV 2012 roster will receive a link to our photo staging area.

This allows you, as a DLV attendee, to pre-screen the submitted
photos and mark for removal any in which you appear and do not
wish to be included in the final DLV 2012 follow-up pages.

Please be expecting this and if you attended, please let us know if
you do not receive this by this coming Wednesday at the latest.
. . . . .

We take pride in the fact that Diva Las Vegas has the most complete
set of photographs of any of the major TG events, several times
over, going all the way back to our very early years.

We'll be automating the removal process this year. No longer will
you have to request removal by e-mail. There will be a "Mark this
photo for removal" button on each displayed photo.

This year we'll also have a "Like" button, for photos you definitely
want to see included in the final pages!

The review period will remain open until about August 15. There will
be a two-week warning when this is about to close.
. . . . .

Thanks to those who have submitted their photos!

Call For Photos remains open.

Here are the ways you can submit photos:

1. By e-mail, attach using any sane method or format. Send photos to
the main DLV address: dlv@geekbabe.com

You may simply reply to this mailing and attach photos.

2. By FTP. Faster and cleaner than by e-mail. Please let us know
if you want to submit photos by FTP and we'll get you the login
credentials.

3. By snailmail. CDs, DVDs, floppies, or hardcopy prints, any sane
format. If you want these back, please say so and we'll cover the
return postage. Write in for the mailing address.

4. Via the MyDLV Gallery. Upload them to your MyDLV Gallery and send
us a note that "Photos X Y and Z are intended for the main DLV pages"
or to that effect.

Please rate our vendors:

Thanks to all who have added ratings and comments to our Big List.

If you have not done so, please rate (and comment upon) those who
served us during the recent event.

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/vendors/

The Big List has now become our most "hit-on" page! It's very well
indexed by all of the major search engines.

Do you see something missing? Just follow the link to add a new
vendor or e-mail us and we'll do the busy work for you and get it
added.

It's very easy to do, just a few simple mouse clicks.

Survey reminder:

We're asking all who attended to please take our DLV 2012 follow-up
Attendee Survey, which is now on line.

You can take the Attendee Survey by clicking here:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/2012survey.html

This year we're also asking those who DID NOT attend to please take
our very brief Non-Attendee Survey, on line here:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/2012nasur.html
. . . . . . . . . .

Both surveys will give us considerable valuable information for
summarizing this year's event and for planning events to come.

To make it easier for you and to speed things along, if you did not
participate in any particular activity, or if any particular question
does not apply to you, you may leave the corresponding answer blank
and skip to the next.

Please take the surveys only once, with one major exception:

If you ever want to add any additional comments, please bring up
the survey again, go directly to the final free-form text boxes,
and submit another entry without checking any of the buttons or
checkboxes in the main part of the survey. You may do this as many
times as you like.

If you wish to comment further, or you wish to comment in the first
person in your name, please do so in the DLV Discussion Forum on
line at:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/mydlv/mainforum/viewforum.php?f=2

If you wish to comment in private, please send your comments, both
positive and negative, to: dlv@geekbabe.com

Thie surveys will remain on line through the month of May.

Thanks to all for giving us very valuable feedback!

Thanks to all who have reported sightings or reported in.

We want to be sure that everyone who attended has been counted.

Please look over the following list. If your name is NOT on it, you
don't need to do anything.

If your name IS on it, and you DID attend, please let us know.

Just reply to this mailing, and please give us the first DLV
activity you attended so we can mark that as your actual date
of arrival.

If you should find your name on this list and you did attend, please
don't panic and please don't get upset. It may be something like a
clerical error, an oversight, or it may be that you did not get an
opportunity to formally check in. Please let us know that you were
indeed in attendance.

Also, if you indeed sighted any of these individuals at DLV 2012,
a note to that effect will be appreciated.
