Yes, you may upgrade at any time before the Expo ends on Sunday.  Click on this link to upgrade: https://www.qsotodayhamexpo.com/upgradeinfo.html
I did not get instructions after registering for the Expo, what happened? 
Most likely since we have not heard from most of the almost 5000 who have registered, at this writing, our message went to your SPAM folder.   Check there.  
Are you doing the Leaderboard game this time? 
No, we are not this time.

There is a text chat system between attendees at the Expo.  You can use it to message your friends attending the Expo and to reach vFairs support.  Look for the Blue tab on the right middle of the screen.  When the tab is read, it means that there is a message waiting for you.  Click on the tab to read the message.

When you click on the lounge, you will be asked to select your camera if you have more than one, microphone, and speakers.  Select, Test, and Join. 

The buttons below are on the bottom of every video lounge that you join.  Every room holds up to 100 people.  Only 12 have their video cameras working.  Mute your microphone if you are listening to the conversation and not a part of it to make it easier for everyone to hear. 
Turn your camera and microphone buttons off to listen to the conversations and presentations in the exhibitor booths or general lounges.
