ALL ABOUT EVENTS - ESSENTIAL INFORMATION THAT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND

 

IMPORTANT NOTICE RE PHOTO NAMES

Please don't rename the photos that you send us as this is totally meaningless to Ozlanka. Just leave the default name as is.

If photo names have any spaces they cannot be used. Please therefore don't rename photos. By doing so you are only causing us problems, not doing us any favours. Thanks.

 

Do you charge for a entry in the Events Calendar?

Entry in our Events Calendar is Free of Charge for Not for Profit organisations only.

How do you set the order of event if there is more than 1 event on the same day?

The events are displayed in the order they are received. First ones appear on top. However we reserve the right to use our discretion in this matter and can change the order if an important community event is notified.

We are running a commercial event, do we have to pay?

Events that are run for commercial purposes must pay a fee. Click here to see the fee structure.

Are some events disallowed? And why?

We reserve the right to refuse any Event without being obliged to provide a reason for such refusal. Certain events that clash with other events or are not in the interest of the community may be refused, without reason being given. From time to time we may refuse an event where the organisers have been uncorporative in the past and abused a free service.

For legal reasons, we will not accept any events where the performers have had litigation with this website. Further we will not cover events where the DJs do not subscribe to the relevant Australian Copyright Associations and have obtained permission to play copyrighted music at public events or when the musicians are not members of the relevant performing union.

Can we make changes to the event entry?

We will not make changes or update the Events Calendar unless there is a major change such as a cancellation. Our professional time is being given free to the community. There is a strict limit to how much we can give for free.

Please do not ask us to make changes as we simply do not have the time. Ozlanka will charge A$35 per change if the event organisers insist on a change being made.

Can you create a fancy page for our event?

We can provide you with an attractive page to advertise your event, it will enhance your event tremendously. We now incur an external cost of A$100 +GST for each event page that is created, this fees will be billed to you.

Can we submit our own page?

You are welcome to submit your own Event page, which we will host free of charge for your association. The Events calendar will also be linked to the page.

Maximum total size of page in kB: 50 kb. (Including all photos, images etc).

Does Ozlanka cover events and what are the terms?

In the past we covered most events, however the cost has become prohibitive and we now encourage organisers to send us their own event photos. If requested, we will try to arrange a photographer to cover your event. If you need your event covered, we require you to provide us with a Press Pass for the event. Due to our current website operating overheads, we regret that we are unable to cover events were we attend as ordinary guests.

No exceptions will be made to this rule.

Can we send our own photos and report?

You may submit your own report and a maximum of 5 photos of any event within 48 hours of its occurrence for publication on this website. The format MUST be MS WORD or TEXT only. PDF, Power Point, Publisher etc. are not acceptable by us.

Photos should be in PNG, GIF or JPG format and each photo should not exceed 250 KB in size.

Reports and/or photos of poor quality or those that are deemed unsuitable by the Webmaster will not be published by us. No reason shall be given for non publication.

The best photos to take are closeups or 2 to 3 people. Take faces and not the back of the heads. Group photos are always dark when taken with a digital camera.

Can we submit larger photos and do you have a FTP server?

Yes we operate a full service FTP server. Larger photos must be submitted by FTP. We can provide you with a temporary password and login. You will need a FTP client such as CUTE FTP or we can send you a free client with instructions. Many groups send us full size photos directly to our server.

Can we purchase photos or can you email us photos taken at events?

All photos on the web in our Event Archives can be downloaded by right clicking on the photo per se. This can then be saved on you PC and printed etc. We do not email photos to anyone.

Limited sponsorship of your event


Under certain circumstances, Ozlanka may be willing to sponsor your event. Such sponsorship will be in the form of advertising on Ozlanka such as Banners, Animated Banners, advertising pages etc. The sponsorship will be to the value of such advertisements on Ozlanka.

Not all events are sponsored by us. Each event is judged on its own merits by a committee prior to approval. There is also a maximum number of events we will sponsor per quarter.

If we agree to sponsor your event we will require you to provide mutual advertising at your event. This could be on the ticket, in the souvenir or with a banner and announcements by the master of ceremonies. All such mutual advertising must be agreed to in writing prior to our advertising commencing.

By providing sponsorship of your events, Ozlanka is bearing the cost incurred for the initial advertising your event on this website.

The maximum lenght of such advertising on Ozlanka shall not exceed two (2) months. However entry in the Events calendar can be made up to twelve (12) months before the event.
