ATTENTION: DATABASE Managers & League Presidents:
Most
organizations have a listing of their membership. Being one of the
largest & most dynamic artist organizations in TX and the
country, we should also. Our new slate of awards &
honors at convention as well as other membership benefits such as being a
featured artist on the website will be dependent on an updated
database.
With that in mind, please
add your members who are not currently in the database to it by the end
of March. Yes, even for those who are not competitors at shows.
Database Managers can do this very simply & easily &
within a very little amount of time.
*****PLEASE
NOTE: Do not ask your membership to do this; they cannot. Database
managers or show chairs must do these additions of those not in the
system already.
1-Go to the database & log in as your league's database manager (not your personal artist account) & click on ARTISTS.
(You
can get to the database by going to the ENTER page under SHOWS or
DATABASE LOGIN under ADMINISTRATIVE INFO. As an alternative, visit
lsag.wspub.com. NO www please & note the 'dot' between lsag
& wspub.) If you are not using an updated browser, you may have
challenges. See our DATABASE HELP page on the website for more
information to assist you.
2-Do nothing for those already in the database. For those NOT in the database, click ADD NEW.
3-A new page will come up with fill in the blanks. Those with a red asterisk (*) are required which is only
-the first & last name of the artist, (the display name will be added automatically based on this info),
-the HOME league,
-division,
-& either an email address or click the box that says 'no email'.
When you've added all of the info, click 'ADD ARTIST'. You are finished!
Note:
Address, phone numbers, & other details are NOT necessary for
those not participating in shows nor is it necessary for this membership
listing.
Total time is seconds per artist. Please note: It
should NOT be any league's policy to enter all new artists under the
level IV or Adult Student division. Artists should be entered at
their EXPERIENCE LEVEL. So professionals should be entered
as professionals even if they are new members to your league; those who
do not meet the Adult Student criteria but are still beginners should be
entered as Non-Professionals. Semi-Professionals are in between these
two divisions---beyond Non-Professional level yet not quite
Professionals. Also keep in mind the limits of participation even at
the Adult Student level. Our guild is dependent on the honesty & integrity of its league members.
Again, please add your complete HOME league membership by March 31st.
