It appears during the recent data migration of the TFA Cosplay webhost, none of the required applications, such as unzip or imagemagick were installed on the new host. The gallery requires some of these features to display itself properly, which is why none of the thumbnails are currently up. I actually have Anime Expo 2011′s pictures processed and uploaded, but until the required applications are installed, the gallery is going to be running in a half assed mode.

Hopefully this will not take too long. More info as it comes.

Update - Also have AM2's pics uploaded as well.

So far, we now have the first of the Fanime 2011 pics up. These particular pics were taken with my Olympus E-PL1 and so you may notice differences in the quality of pictures. I'm not sure at the moment if I should isolate the pictures or just mix them based on date. I'll have to give it some further thought.

In any event you can get to them by clicking here.

Update - All the pics, over 500 total, are now available. As always should anyone want raws or highter quality JPG's of their cosplay, let me know and I will make it available. Have fun!

Well, spent two days at Anime Conji and acquired some great pics and some good video, which I'll get that up as soon as I can. Fun convention, and I wish I could have stayed for the full three days, but just coming off a really large evolution at work, there were things that needed to be done in the old personal life, up to and including real sleep, heh. So without further ado, go ahead and just click here to go directly there.

As always if you're one of the cosplayers and want a full size and/or raw version, email me, and I'll make them available.

Holy shit, folks…they actually managed to actually HAVE an Anime Expo despite some of the serious shit that led up to this year's show. For a round up of that situation, I'll repost part of a news item from a few months ago so you can refresh your memory on this bit of drama:

Someone had the bright idea to release a kick ass Transformers game (which I need to get a review done for) and a Dragon Quest game recently. I must find these people and both thank them profusely and beat them to death, because I have work to do, damnit!

On the subject of work, I've finally processed the nearly 400 pics I took for Anime Expo 2010. Head on over toTenchifanart for the pics. And now I have to go and see about so much much more...oh Lord what did I do to deserve this? Oh, right, I volunteered.

Doug Nelson, also known as Mayhem, has posted his Fanime pics on TFA Cosplay. This was also a very good year for picture taking as he was allowed back stage of the Masquerade to take some composed shots of the cosplayers with a quality you don't often get to see. You'll find those pics in the first item which is a sub album for the Masquerade photos.

As always, if you see your pic and you want a larger and/or raw version of it, send me a message and I'll make it available. Enjoy!

And after some serious toil, I have the Fanime 2010 pics up for viewing. Lots of notables worth mentioning, and I need to get some comments on them when I can...not to mention work on videos and the articles which will explain more.

As always, if you see your pic and want a larger or unedited RAW version, just send me an email and let me know. Have fun one and all, it was a fun year, as you'll see when you check them out!

p>As I sit here listening to Kung Fu Fighting by Fun Thomas and Carl Douglas, all the while wondering what the Hell I'm thinking going to conventions back to back like I do with ACEN and Fanime, I've managed to complete the processing and uploading of the pics from Anime Central 2010, which you can find here on TFA Cosplay.

Went to Anime Conji this past weekend. First anime convention here in sunny San Diego, and the first year for it. As I always do, I went to take pics and record video.

You can get to the pics by clicking here.

As always if you are a cosplayer and want bigger pics and/or RAW pics, just email me, and I will make them available.

Someone should shoot me for taking so long at this. In any event, in the November timeframe I went to a small convention for about a day called Pacific Media Expo to meet up with an old friend who, while being an old friend, I'd never seen in real life. While there, I did what I typically do at a convention, and that's to take a few pictures.
