Hi gang.

MidFur has opened for registratrion and the website is up and running. This year is MidFur the 13th, tales from the Crypt.

The guest of Honour is Jibba Foxcoon from the USA, the new venue is the Dallas Brooks convention centre (behind the Fitzroy gardens), and the expanded team behind the event seems to be on the ball as far as production and events go. The site was even designed by yours truly so if there are any issues please don’t hit me.

Registration

Rego is $120 this year, down from previous years along with a new venue and back-end system. Credit cards and deposits can be made one line, streamlining the whole process immensely.

DVD release

They’ve  also released their DVD series. From MidFur 10 in 2009 to last year with a main featurette and extras including panels, extra events and even the ActFur live shows. Yay.

Hi guys!
I was lucky enough to get ‘on the scene’ for Supanova this year, and has finally gotten my butt around to reporting the findings. : )

As this was a ‘first time’ at Expo kind of event, I was curious to see how it would measure up against previous convention experience and was very pleasantly surprised to find a wide variety of recreation to loose my inner geek upon.

Take a ride with me through the halls, costumes, events & snaps that were Supanova 2011!

hustle n' bustle!
