I was sad to see teh flowerbed instead of the fountain and construction site where that building was today :( ...  mostly the flowerbed- the extention is gunna make teh experience better...

Here's my question.... Why did they have to get rid of the fountain?!! T_T

Larger photo of its glorious ugliness. I'm so disappointed with the city of San Jose. Whenever I think of Fanime and spending time at the convention center I always remember the masses gathered outside in the nice weather by the fountains.

Now there's what... dirt and plants? It seems so backwards O_o also the massive construction outside the con limits the amount of space given to walk around outside. Most people are going to be confined inside the convention center which could cause mass crowding. So we'll see how this year goes... all I know is I'm sad panda about the fountain.

RIP majestic Fanime fountain

I'm a newbie for cosplaying and what not, so I don't really know what to do.
If I am a single cosplayer and I want to have pictures taken of me, do I just join a group that is related to whatever I'm cosplaying? Would I have to sign up, as in send a form or something? thanks

   Your best bet would be to join a group/gathering.  Gatherings tend to attract more photographers.  The larger the gathering, the more who show.  If you want a solo picture, there are enough photographers who are willing to take your picture and post it on their website.  Just be careful when soliciting strangers.  Something to look out for is the Press Badge.  Holders of the Press Badge are individuals of organizations officially recognized by Fanime as "Professionals" who adhere to Fanime's strict guidelines posted here: http://registration.fanime.com/proreg_faq.  The Cosplay Gatherings Deparment has its own photographers.  If they are not busy, one of them might be willing to take your photo.

I'm looking for a World of Warcraft group (if there will even be one)  as I am planning out my costumes.  Does anyone know if there will be any other WoW cosplayers about and what days would they be gathering?

I found the thread to ask this...

alright, thank you for the heads up! I think I will join a gathering, however, would I need to formally sign up or could I just walk up and join considering the fact that I'd be a part of whatever that group is cosplaying?

It is not necessary to sign up for a gathering, but it lets the organizers know who is showing up.

Just wanting to check if my submission for the Soul Eater gathering was received since I had sent it a couple weeks ago.
