Call For Photos - Photo Staging:
Before we place the final DLV follow-up pages on line, we give those who
attended a chance to review and evaluate the submitted photos.
Everyone who attended gets a reasonable number of "no way" deletion
requests on any photo in which they appear.
Toward the beginning of next week, everyone who was marked as "present"
on the DLV 2015 roster will receive a personal link to the DLV 2015
photo staging area.
If you attended DLV 2015 and do not receive this by Wednesday at the
latest, please let us know.
Within the staging area, you will be able to view the photos and mark
any photos containing your image which you do not like for deletion.
You will also be able to "like" photos, meaning to recommend them for
inclusion on the final DLV 2015 follow-up pages.
The staging area will remain open until June 30.
Several hundred photos have already come in. Big thanks to all who have
submitted their photos. The Call For Photos will remain open through
May.
Here's how you can submit the photos:
1. **New This Year**! Re-visit your Attendee Information Portal. You
will now see the "Upload Photos" option. Click on the button and select
the photos on your computer to upload. With most browsers you can upload
multiple photos in one action.
2. E-mail. Simply attach your photos (any reasonable number to any
message) and e-mail to dlv@geekbabe.com
3. FTP. If you wish to use this method, write in and we'll give you the
login credentials.
4. Snailmail. You can send prints, a CD/DVD, a USB stick, or whatever.
If you want to do this, write in, we'll send you the snailmail address.
We'll return the photos and devices to you if you wish.
If there are any questions about DLV 2015 photos, please let us know.

Call For Volunteers:
First of all, we wish to thank all who worked on DLV 2015 for their
efforts in producing a very successful and highly-enjoyed event!
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, 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!
(Those of you who filled out the volunteer form as part of the DLV
follow-up survey do not need to take any more action.)
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.

Pinkfest 2015:
It seems like each year when DLV concludes, there's talk about how nice
it would be if we would have a "Mini DLV" about half-way between our
yearly DLV events.
Well, we have just that, and it's been going on for 15 years!
It's not in Las Vegas, but in Chicago. Like the DLV that you know and
love, it's a "vacation, not a convention", and is a lot of fun!
It's called Pinkfest, and it grew from the same roots as DLV.
This year's Pinkfest will run from Wednesday, October 14, thru
Sunday, October 18, 2015.
Pinkfest information is on line here:
http://www.geekbabe.com/pinkfest/
. . . . .
We know what some of you are thinking. "But it's not Las Vegas!"
When you think about it, about the only thing that Las Vegas has that
Chicago doesn't have much of is casino gaming, and if that's your
priority, you can find it in Chicagoland if you look for it.
Everything else that made you fall in love with Diva Las Vegas is there
at Pinkfest, such as open-minded and accepting vendors and venues, fun
things to do, the upbeat but easy-going "party" atmosphere, and
fun-loving people to share your good times with!
And yes, if you've attended DLV, you're sure to see some familiar faces.
If you're interested, please write to pinkfest@geekbabe.com and join our
mailing list. Also visit the Pinkfest Discussion Forum here:
viewforum.php?f=13
We would love to have you join us in October!
