Submission instructions

The directory will be published using a proven publishing technology available in SL. Each page will be a 3:4 ratio and supplied images should be at a resolution that matches this ration, for example 384 by 512.

Important: Images must be supplied with full permissions to the next owner, failure to set permissions correctly will cause your submission to be omitted.

You must supply an image for each page you wish published. The first page must always include the name of the SIM, details of a contact person or group, an indication of PG or Mature status and a summary of the sim. For multiple page sims the summary may be omitted from the front page.

Pages should be named as the sim with an incrementing page number for multi page submissions. Prefix minor words (The, A etc) should be omitted. The page name will determine where in the book your listing will be shown so you may want to specify an slightly different name. For example a sim named "The Kingdom of the Ice Lolly" may submit pages named:

Kingdom of the Ice Lolly 1
Kingdom of the Ice Lolly 2

or

Ice Lolly, The Kingdom of 1
Ice Lolly, The Kingdom of 2

Any submission trying to use page naming to select an order that would not be considered normal will be rejected. For example the following names would not be allowed:

AAAAA Ice Lolly, The Kingdom of 1
AAAAA Ice Lolly, The Kingdom of 2

Create a single prim name name it as above without the page number. Place all your pages plus appropriate payment tokens into the prim. Go to the following location:

Where you will find a notice board, a token vendor (not currently in position but will be placed before charging starts) and two monoliths, one for RP sims, one for Activity sims. The notice board will will display the closing date for submissions, if it says "Submissions Due: Closed" your submission will be held over till the next issue unless your submitting a feature listing. Drag your prim onto the appropriate monolith to submit it.
