Domafox here.  We are approaching Conifur on Oct 21-23.

Who in all is going?

I am trying my best to plan ahead and make any possible agreements for room sharing.

I'll probably stop by for one day, seeing as I live... less than 5 minutes away. '<img'>

I'll probably be too swamped with homework to spend more than that there; I really don't know what pace these college classes willl go at. Plus, it'll be my first con, and I don't want to get TOO freaked out. xD

Some Change of plans.  My sister may accompany me to the con.  She is into animals so I don't think it will be a problem for her.

I definitely will be; I've already registered.  In fact, I offer to taxi anyfur who needs a ride to SeaTac within wide limits.  You get to ride Mono's Furrymobile (1996 Toyota Tercel, white with bird crap highlights, a dicey transmission, and "Furry on Board" licence plate frame.)  Just message me.

Good News Everyone.  I thought I have to skip this conference because of my exam one day after the con.  Well I can still have two days at the con and be back home for my test studies.

So I still hope to see anyone there.

Good to hear it, Domafox.

I'll be there and, with luck, so will my mate Misha (HKR), who should be rolling into town on Thursday, the day before the convention starts, if all goes well.  If anyfur here needs a ride, again, we can accommodate a few more persons (especially if Misha and I ride down in his van instead of my weensy Tercel.)

Hope to see y'all there!

Am I the only one who isn't able to find a program for Conifur?  Times and dates and all that?  Their website is...minimal, to put it kindly.  I've no idea when to show up on Friday.

I snapped a lot of photos yesterday but my digital camera is starting to quit on me and most of the pictures are no good, and there's no other camera in the house.  I may pick up a disposable or two before Misha and I head out today.

Oh, damnit! I missed it! I thought it was next weekend. I was planning on stopping by on Sunday morning before too many have packed up. Crap. Bad timing anyways as I saw a good friend off to Iraq this weekend. Oh well, next year.

EDIT:
And jeez, that is ever a cute shirt. (see above post) Heh, I know a friend I could freak out by wearing it. Hehe. That would be fun. '<img'>

You know... I didn't really think I would, but I had a good time there. Not really what I expected from a furry con, but that was a good thing. ;D

More info here; a copy of my LJ entry, because the original is friends-only.



Plus, I got this! BTW, does anyone remember the artist at either table 15 or 16 in the dealer's den, who I commissioned this badge from? I completely forgot her name... :/

edit> After some searching, I found out it was http://redwulf.deviantart.com/ .

I promised Conifur pictures and here they are:

My digital camera is starting to malfunction badly and these six are the best of a bad lot.  The equine fur holding the beach ball in one of the photos has given me ideas about how to design my own fursuit...well, one of these days.

Woah awesome stuff! Like the badges and artwork especially from the person who drew cynic's, and the shots of the fursuiters
