What constitutes an event?

[Keitaro Akiyama]

I'm holding an iDOLM@STER cosplay gathering at Fanime 2015 in celebration of the franchise's 10th anniversary and I was wondering if I should add it as an event. I was hoping there was some way to publicize it on this site so I don't have to send PM invites (which is what I tried last year). I know an event was filed for the iDOLM@STER gathering at Anime Expo 2013. Could anyone help shed some light on this?

Feel free to add it as an event, so it will show up on our events page but you will need to conduct your own publicity runs for it beyond that

ワイ~! Thanks for the info.

One other thing; when will Fanime become a convention for which one can add an event?

[waynekaa]

You can add events to Fanime already

How? It isn't on the dropdown menu.

Fanime 2015 needs dates set in it before you can add events to it

Oh wow. Thanks so much for your help.

I just tested uploading a banner image, upload a jpg that is less than 1MB then click update

It has to be a Jpeg? All right. Thanks.
