† Waived/Refunded for help with bag-stuffing.
Have a flyer, post card, poster, small geeky toy
or other item or swag you'd like to have included in
the bag each guest is given when they pick up their
registration badge? Supply us with
600 copies of your insert
and we will include them.
Inserts can be any size or format within reason -
they must fit within a typical shopping sized bag -
and as long as they are ready-to-stuff when we receive
them (for example, if you wish to have a poster included
please fold them or roll them up and secure them so
they will fit in a bag before sending them to us - we
will not fold them or roll them up for you).
The $15 fee will be waived/refunded if you send a
person to help at our bag-stuffing session
(this is
not scheduled yet, but happens very close to the convention--think
end of September).
Deadline for receiving bag inserts
is
Friday, September 25, 2009
(This is when they have to reach our post office
box so be sure to mail them with plenty of time to get
them to us on time!)

The VCON 34 Program Book is handed out to every member
attending the convention. It contains the entire programming
schedule for the weekend, information about each scheduled
event, session or panel, and details about each of our
Guests of Honour. You can be assured that if you advertise
with us, your ad will be viewed again and again as VCON
refer to the contents of the program book throughout
the weekend.
Send your ad artwork by email to the
VCON Publications
Coordinator
Deadline for receiving ad artwork is
Tuesday, September 15, 2009
Ad artwork must be submitted by email to the
VCON Publications
Coordinator as a print-ready
grayscale graphic in any of the
following formats:
(We advise caution with choosing
the JPEG format. This file format is optimized for photos
and non-photo elements such as text, logos, artwork
often do not come out crisply when printed.)
We also recommend that you provide artwork that has
been scanned or saved as at least 300 dpi (dots-per-inch)
as given above. 300 dpi is a rule-of-thumb minimum
to ensure good-looking print results so images with
a higher dpi and thus larger dimensions than specified
above are fine.
We will accept advertisements with a lower dpi, but
your ad may end up looking blocky when printed.
