Cosplay! Construction, Tips, Gatherings, Advice / Re: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Gathering 2013! *Update 5/5*

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

To all the Pinkie Pies cosplaying this weekend: There is a NO-BALLOON policy within the Convention center! I did not know this rule even myself and would have worn mine around. I'm sorry to say this but these are the rules so please leave the balloons outside!

To Clarify --- please No Lighter than air balloons (specifically helium filled balloons) --- if you are inside the convention center and these balloons get away from you and get stuck on the high ceilings or pop near the fire sprinklers it would have very unfortunate results!

We apologize for the inconvenience but a possible solution would be normal balloons filled with air at the end of a light plastic rod that would help give the appearance that one has a floating balloon.

Thanks for reading and understanding the convention center rules!

I'll be wandering around as Russell on Saturday, but without balloons unfortunately...

Being a rover, I have to mention that there is a " NO BALLOONS " policy inside the convention center >_<
if the balloons get away from you and get stuck on the ceiling or pop near fire sprinklers... it would be all bad and very wet and soggy for the convention center...

so please let all the pinkies out there, as much as we love parties and balloons... we cannot use helium or lighter than air filled balloons...

its pretty easy to make new friends, whether is sitting in line, or just complementing someone on their cosplay or cool swag that they have... id like to think most people are friendly at the convent.

Dont forget staff are all Fans, too.
See ya around the convention!

Meetings, Gatherings, and Get Togethers / Re: Offering to hang with North Bay & Bay Area local attendees

« on: February 13, 2012, 10:10:46 AM »

I used to host/hold tons gatherings back in my day--- and just posting "hey lets meet up" post on the forums doesnt quite work...

You may want to plan around other local events or mini cons (Like AOD for example) or maybe your own event with themes and activities.

Start a facebook group or a group of cosplay (or non cosplay) friends  and throw out dates, holidays or movie releases and build up rep as it were.. and or give your self small goals of getting to know people on the forums or the internets and go from there. if it wasnt for Fanime/forums/face book, i wouldnt have the massive circles of friends I'd have today.

So again dont forget that AOD is coming up, make a few acquaintances and plan again for a mini group hang out.
and someday, I'm sure it will turn into something like a mini convention of friends... or you can always wait til fanime.

Happy Things in the Happy Universe / No more Water Fountains at SJCC

Yeah, so the fountains we all knew and enjoyed are now huge planter plot.

Thoughts?

my first thought, is do we now call it the "previously known as the water fountain" meet up for cosplayers?

The fountains have been replaced by ugly green plants....  The giant globe things are still there though... Doesn't work at all in my opinion! I want the fountains back...

yah, its been discussed for some time now...
I dont know how most fanime members will feel...
but a picture is worth 1000 words right?



I think most people first thought would be "Dislike"
