Picture requirements

Minimum pictures required: 1
Here's how it works: 1. Upload pics of your merchandise. You may upload examples of particular classes of items that you sell; you do not need to upload a photo for every individual item, just one photo that gives us a general idea of the products you wish to sell. Example: if you sell jewelry and you carry bracelets, necklaces, and earrings, please upload a representative sample of your bracelets, another of the necklaces, and another of the earrings. We don't need a photo of every bracelet that you carry. 2. Upload pics of your tent/setup. It's possible you're new and you may not have pics of this and that's ok. Just let us know! 3. Upload pics of you and your staff in costume/garb. Period costuming is important for the immersive element we all work so hard to create for the faire. Please remember: no sunglasses that aren't period and try to hide modern things like watches etc. This goes for ALL workers of your booth. If you have any questions about this, please contact us for help!
