Exhibit Hall to Open
for Booking After November 7th!
Where will the exhibition
take place?
The Avatars98 exhibition, complete with booths, art show, webcam walls
and discussions with noted speakers, will take place in
a variety of worlds online. Due to the gracious donation of a
large world by Circle of Fire
Studios, we will host a significant portion of these activities
in the AV98 world in Active Worlds, including booths (or stands
as you British say) in a main tradeshow hall. We encourage you all
to download and install Active
Worlds so you can experience this part of the show (Windows only,
sorry Mac/Unix users!). If you can't get Active Worlds to run on your
system (even under emulation), you can still experience the events
in the other worlds. Note only that,
through the magic of database technology, even if you can't run
Active Worlds, you will still be able to build a booth in the AV98
main hall (more details to follow)! Of course, you can still arrange
to have a booth made (or make it yourself) in the other
world platforms and we will tie you in to the main event page.
Who
can have a booth and how much does it cost?
Avatars98 is a fundraiser for the Contact Consortium so we are asking
for donations for the booths in the most central high traffic area
of the main hall of our AV98 world in Active Worlds. The rates for
these booths are as follows:
- $100 US
for an 8 by 8 meter booth in the main island
- $200
US for an 8 by 16 meter booth in the main island
- $400
US for a 16 by 16 meter booth in the main island

What can I do at my
booth?
There will be a variety of choices of booth layout and accessories,
such as signage, images and text billboards, animations, and teleporters.
You can opt to have someone at your booth for part of or the whole
day or talk to us about getting a custom made bot, which can talk
to people and answer questions. You can link your webpages, webcams,
audio and video streams and teleport visitors to your own ongoing
discussion pod. Of course, your booth will be advertised in the Big
Board, the conference program.
What about free booths
for volunteer groups?
There are a lot of you out there putting in your all for the betterment
of virtual world cyberspace. In recognition of this and to serve the
community good, we will be offering a large number of freebie booths
(small 8 by 8 meter booths) in part of the AV98 world conference floor.
You will get signed up by filling out the form, just like the paying
customers, and your booth will be advertised in the Big Board,
the conference program.
How do I get signed
up for a booth?
Getting a booth
in the AV98 world will be as easy as filling in a web form. Booth
signup will be available after November 7th so check back to
this page for updates. Feel free to contact
us today and let us know you intend to book a booth. Also, we
recommend that you get signed up on the Newsfeed
for updates on when bookings will open.
