Send us your news and pics

VIRTUAL worlds are full of great news, exciting events and fascinating stories – and we want YOU to send us the best of them.

If you have a scoop, a top story, or have snapped a great shot or video, then send it NOW to The AvaStar!

The AvaStar wants to make your voice heard.

Your Pics

You have sent us hundreds of images from major breaking news events, demonstrations and griefing attacks, as well as countless photos of exclusive parties, fashion shows and sim openings, that have made the pages of The AvaStar.

While we want exclusive news-related images, we also want just great pictures of your everyday virtual lives.

The best photos will be published online, and each week our picture editor will choose the crème de la crème to go in the Photos of the Week gallery - so keep sending them in!

To upload pics in any format, click here!

You can also send pics via email to yourphoto(at)the-avastar.com

(Tip: Don't forget to include your avatar name and some info - who, what, where and when is a good guide - about the photo as this will increase your chance of it being published!)

Your Stories

Have you got a scoop? Is there a burning issue the world needs to know about? Have you got an original and fascinating feature you think people will want to read?

Everyone has a story to tell – we want to hear yours!

You can submit a text for consideration by the Editor, or send a story lead for the AvaStar editorial team to follow up on.

(Tip: It is a good idea to send us your story idea first so we can let you know if we are interested, and to get some tips about how to write it. This will significantly improve your chance of getting it published!)

Your Videos

We will soon be launching a video portal on The-AvaStar.com, with all the best videos and film from your world.

Until we do, if you have any machinima or virtual world related videos that you think we should show, you can upload them on to YouTube and send us the link, so that we can embed it on our site.
