Registration IS NOT REQUIRED! However, there are several advantages to registering that may interest you. You will have the ability to:
Upload photos to share with other IAIS readers
Edit your own information in our new Traders Corner, which includes a Ticket Exchange
Receive e-mail News Bulletins from IAIS
As a registered member, you may periodically receive general updates from IAIS (pertaining to the website and its features), as well as news bulletins, at the email address you register.
Establish a unique identity in the IAIS community
Assign yourself a personalized image (avatar) that will appear each time you post a review with your IAIS name
When you register, you do not have to provide your REAL NAME unless you so choose. While we have a really neat dynamic search feature in the Who’s Who that helps you to find registered fans in your area (among other neat things), you can register and feel totally secure about remaining anonymous by not providing your personal information, if that’s what you prefer.
An example of this would be one of our regular posters, “DiamondGirl.” If she prefers that her real name remain anonymous, DiamondGirl can register and use “Diamond” for her first name and “Girl” for her last name, and her REAL NAME will never be registered. Yet, she’ll be able to upload photos to share with other fans and participate in the other registration required activities.
If you select for your registration information to be viewable in Who’s Who, be sure to fill in ONLY the information that you wish to be shared with other registered fans (only fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required):
*Name
*User Name (screen name)
*E-Mail address
Address (provide as much detail as you wish to share…maybe just city and state)
Phone Number
Birthday
About Me (whatever you want to share with the registered IAIS readers about yourself)

You can set up an Internet address on hotmail.com or yahoo.com, or any other free Internet service, if you prefer not to use your regular email address.
When you’re logged in, your “User Name” and E-Mail are automatically placed in the Name and E-Mail boxes of the Message forms, eliminating the need to enter that information manually.
User Names are unique. If someone registers your first choice of names before you do, you will be required to make another choice.
You must use a legitimate email address for your registration, so that you can receive official mail from IAIS. If we discover that an e-mail address is not legitimate, we will delete the registration.
