You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


*changes up the wording for a special thread*

Ladies and gentermens, this weekend was DragonCon. I have a ridiculous number of pictures to share, and I'm hoping everyone else does as well. I know more than one person took pics that I want a copy of very badly, so I hope they will all post here.

If you were not fortunate enough to be there with us, post a bunch of pictures anyway! I hope you all got up to something fun, and we missed everyone who couldn't make it.


How to post images here: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=5&t=29479
(Short version: Image must be hosted somewhere on the internet and all you need is the URL. Photobucket, imageshack, and flickr are your friends. See above-linked thread for further details, or click 'reply with quote' to see how others have done it.)
Also, PLEASE NOTE: the tutorial thread is an excellent resource and we don't want it to get overloaded and weighed down. Please test your image posts in one of the many 'test' threads scattered over the board, particularly out of the way in troll country, or start your own to help keep the tutorial nice and easy to load.

Kicking it off.

Magda was totally excited to see Mark Shepard in the Marriot lobby. When she finally got the guts up to go talk to him, he was on the phone, but once he was done he came over to us and as soon as she said she was there from Australia and on his Myspace friends he said "Yeah, I know exactly who you are." and he was just so lovely to us, even though he had gotten practically no sleep.




We went to the Vortex (which was a hella long walk and I don't ever want to do it again, but they had the best burgers I've ever tasted) and I met the 76th's 'sasquach' Zephyr, who was awesome.




And those are the best pics I have from the first day, so I'll leave it at that while I sort through all the rest of them. Don't worry, many more are coming, and I just know that plenty of people are ready to share




(Thanks Steamer!)

Awww, thanks MsG. Just so you all know, she is also way hot and fun to hang out with, and it's probably thanks to her that we got as much done as we did, since everyone else would have gladly babbled the whole con away.

Here I go again!

My lovely adoptive sisters on Friday morning:




The selfsame at the Hard Rock Cafe:




Engie is a rock star




I'm in a cute Aussie's lap! Not the one I may have had in mind, but still...



(somewhere out there is a pic of us giggling in bed together, which could have close to the same description )


And look, we found a kitten!!!






And this is Sister's awsome Zoe gun



I don't think I actually got a picture of Sister. I am sad.


I did get a pic of MsG, though! (well, I got more than one, but this is the first one at the Friday room party)




This woman was really cool; best Zoe costume of the con




And this is Gibbs with his excellent Badger costume on. Even has the diamond (there was a bit of talk about finding a Sparten and seeing if his diamond was truly the size of a testicle, but I don't think that went anywhere.)



He had an equally excellent Romo costume, which I think I have a picture of somewhere.


I think that's the end of Friday pics. Sorting through Saturday now

HUGS Thanks Rose...and I've decided that ALL your pictures are fine. ( and I do mean all so even those ones I thought might not be ok are fine, if you want to post them)

Seriously I will post some of you as Saffron, but I do have to give the guys at least a warning so they make sure to have a clear bunk nearby or at least a defibrilator....

Awesome pictures, Rose - And I can fill in one gap. The woman in the Zoe costume is EienAi, who posts both here and at serenitymovie.

http://www.serenitymovie.org/browncoats/forums/index.php?showuser=540

I know this because she made the most awesome Zoe funeral dress ever for last year's D*C.

I can't wait to see more pictures!!!

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


Yay! Thanks, Mav! She told me who she was and it just flew straight out of my head.

Okay, y'all ready for Saturday? I seem to have more pics with every day that goes by

Here's my Saffron-esque look. MsG has the one of the Mal passed out at my feet (or actually my knees, since that was the only way to get us both in the picture)




The Flying Spagetti Monster touched me with her noodly apendege



This may explain why I couldn't resist buying a pirate hat the following day.


A cool shot I got of the Marriot before being kicked out for tossing half business cards over the railing (long story, will be told later and in blogs, I'm sure)




The first picture I took of Navy's friend Michael (NavySeils is also Michael, and eventually this Michael was our auxiliary backup Michael) giving Zephyr a hug while we waited for MsG and Canter to be superheroes and get us un kicked out of the Mariott



I could so not resist once he jumped; it was such a cute yet unsettling pic.


Okay, once let back into the Mariott I talked with ArtCat and her friends. That's her in the blue dress. The orange shirted one is NaughtyMan, the guy on the far right is anotherfireflyfan, who was totally awesome (I'd never gotten to talk to him before then, and actually didn't see him for the rest of the con, which made me sad) The red hatted guy is ArtCat's brother, whose name escapes me right now, and I also can't remember the woman with the fabulous brown coat. Speaking of which, I missed getting pictures of Aiken in his swoon-worthy coat and Mal pistol, but I'm sure someone got it.




Anyway, here are VeX, Magda, and StinkingRose at the shindig with their fans



I left the shindig pretty early because it was so dark and crowded in there, but the dresses and costumes were certainly a sight.


On our way from the shindig to another room party, we saw some Halo soldiers. I think this is the only pic Seils actually wanted to be in, and he still looks uncomfortable. Oh well.




Speaking of Seils (he is going to hate me so much by the time this thread is over) he made several claims that he didn't drink, so the one time he did I couldn't resist catching him. That's Babywiththepower in the background.



Even I found myself sampling several forms of alchohol, none of which I could get past the first sip of. Except perhaps the Smirnoff Ice; that wasn't bad, but I still didn't have more than a sip of it because I still felt a burn in my throat. Apparently this makes me some kind of freak.


Magda being cute at the room party



Double the cuteness!



I couldn't resist this one




And Lila looked adoreable sprwaled out, so I had to have a pic of that, too




Though starting to get used to hugs, Seils (Navy) still didn't like much contact, and nearly died when I did this:



In fact, he went and hid in the corner for the rest of the party






The mentioned Romo costume:



He was one of my favorite people ever because he had Bawls mints (we had trouble finding the drink anywhere in Atlanta) and gave me about five tins of them, allowing me to function like a person.


And Jimi looking about ready to pass out




And those are the best Saturday pics I have. Stay tuned. (although I have to go to work soon, so I don't know how many more I'll be able to sort and upload before then)

you got some great pics Rose. We are going to have to trade cd's :)

Yes I have several awesome shots of Rose in the Saffron gear and several of them with a large gun and a wicked grin:)

Poor Jimi of course he look about passed out. He barely slept, or ate, or anything...he's such an angel:)

I am terrible at remembering to take pictures. I only have a few. The first is of Magda and PhoenixRose just moments before we saw Mark Sheppard at the Marriott lobby on Thursday night.


Friday morning I ran into Navy Seiils and his friend Michael at the Star Trek vs. Battlestar Galactica panel, and we stayed to see the Stargate panel. Is there a slight smile on Navy's face?


Later on Friday, I ran into Magda and Canter at Mark Sheppard's panel. Here's Magda in her Kaylee outfit.


Here's Magda and Canter.


After the Mark Sheppard panel I ran into Naughtyman and PhoenixRose. Naughtyman mentioned that he doesn't have a way of posting pics on his computer, so I wanted to make sure I got one to share.


On Saturday morning at 7:30 AM, the 76th invaded the lobby of the Hyatt before the parade.




Saturday night was the shindig. Here's StinkingRose, Engie, Magda, and Engie's friend.

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


The sexy bellydancer is Clara, who I hadn't gotten to talk to before the con, but she was awesome. We have similar reactions to getting pissed off, though, which made the ridiculous wait for RHPS rather... interesting. Like, the 'oh god, oh god, we're all gonna die' kind of interesting.
I can't believe you got Seils smiling! Someone out there (I think it's Gibbs) has him with a full-out grin on his face and I need that pic so badly.
Just got home from work, but stay tuned for the next 'day' of pics

Okay... I feel a little awkward posting right after myself, but I finally got everything cropped and shrunk and sorted and I want to post more now! So...

What are we on now, Sunday? I think this is Sunday. Totally losing track of time by that point, though. Anyway, here's Lila playing with bubbles.




Seils and I looked in a few places before we tracked down the very lovely Serenity and her bag full of Jayne hats. She'd had to get a non-wool one just for me and then I forgot my cash when headed to the shindig, so it wasn't until the next day that I got my hat, but that worked out since he wanted one as well. His first question was, of course "How's it sit?" (only said in an incredible but almost incomprehensible Scottish accent) and our response was, or course "Very cunning." and it is; he pulls it off well.




This sword was as tall as I was. I just had to have a pic of that.




I was trying to just get a candid shot of Jimi, but he took a drink, looked at me, and held until I got the picture. That pretty much embodies Jimi right there




The one and only stormtrooper chick (that I saw) at the con. She was totally awesome and also totally hot.




This is just the sweetest helmet ever. Man walks into battle in this helmet, and you know he's not afraid of anything.



Except, in this case, he's afraid of hugs and other forms of affection.


After going to a few room parties, Magda pointed out that we had more space than a lot of people and should just invite everyone to our room. So we did. This is Flat Top, who tried to hide in his hat when I pulled out my camera. He is such a sweetheart.




Magda doing what she does best: talking and dressing like Kaylee




Lila and StinkingRose (who's name is Heather but who is called Rosie, which causes me no end of confused moments)



They didn't know I was taking their picture


Jimi's sister, who is breathtakingly beautiful, and her man



I got a pic of her way cool earings, too, but it didn't come out at all. They were pirate skulls in big hoops, and the skull is turned sideways so you can't see it. Sad me. But you know, you can see it pretty well here, actually.


Jimi passed out after being ordered to lie down. He was such a honey, driving everyone everywhere and never sleeping. Finally MsG just said "Lie down and sleep. Now." So he did. He was still asleep when I got back from Rocky near dawn. Hybernating Jimibear!




He was not the only one to pass out in our room:







Most were still up when I got back (I have no pics from Rocky, which is sad because there was a beautiful man in a corset and Serenity T-shirt who was from Florida's cast Interchangable Parts, which I know of from a webcomic I read so we had all kinds of things to babble about. And my outfit, by the way, was awesome and so was Engie's, and there are pictures somewhere but I forgot my camera, arg!)
Lila we were expecting at that point, and Clara too, obviously, but not the Michaels or the Jimi.
Despite not expecting it, and despite the mild panic I think it induced in Navy to realize he had slept next to me most of the night, they are adoreable bunkmates:





So ends Sunday. Begin Monday in three... two... one...

Monday morning and Magda is goping through her luggage and hands me a flag. This is a really unflattering angle and I have an odd look on my face (I think I was caught between being sad and wanting to smile) but... I'm posting it anyway.




I was eventually talked into piling into the post-con shindig with everyone else. The Bards were there, and they are some of the coolest guys ever.




Guns are illegal in Scotland as well as Australia. The Michaels and Magda had a bit too much fun with the airsofts (the orange tips often vanished in my photoshop, just because I think it makes a better picture, but these are toy guns)












Auxiliary backup Michael was chatting with NaughtyMan and wanted a picture. Even then he couldn't stop stroking his gun (and yes, for those of you who have been in the army, I know what I just said, so be quiet )




Blades are also illegal in Australia, so this was only the third or fourth time Magda touched one.




NavySeils is an amazing guitar player. He will tell you he sucks (was, in fact, insisting that he was terrible even after one of the bards said he was the better player) but he is flawless. Sure, it's true what he says that he only knows bits and pieces, but he knows bits and pieces of legendary songs, and he plays them well. Anyway, he rocks socks and seems to transform when he picks up a guitar, and here he is.






And here's the last picture I have. They are both drunk, though they claimed to be perfectly fine and cogent.



Totally drunk.


The end! I need everyone else's! There was talk of everyone burning all their pics onto one CD, I think? Anyone who can get me a copy of that can have my address. I'm also happy to send all of mine to anyone who asks (though really all the decent ones are here and most of the others are in my photobucket there, so...)

I didn't get pics of Whims. I need Whimsy pics. I didn't get Karel or Serenity or Citizen either, but I didn't get to spend more than a few passing moments with them, and I spent all kinds of time with Whims

And Lila, a couple you wanted are ready to send. I know you said I could post them, but I didn't want to bog it down completely, so I'll just email you. But first I need to sleep again.

You're behind me in the pic with Sister's Zoe gun! You can barely be seen, but you are certainly there!
I wish I could have gotten copies of your pics to bring with me, MsG. I could have them sorted out, cropped, resized, and ready by now I betcha.

Hey Honey - I did get a couple of pics of you - but I left my camera at Zephs so I will have to get it on the weekend on my way through to see you!! I love these Rose - thank you so much Mei Mei - I am reliving the whole weekend all over again!!

And for Gee and Roxy and Little Albatross and FlyVote and all those whom we wish were there and couldn't be! Lissa's friends had a terrific idea - they made a lifesize mask of her and took it with them wherever they went - she managed to get to D*C at the last minute - but it got me thinking we should do that next time someone can't make it!

Rose - we found actual Bawls, but it was the day that everyone left, and at an out of the way gas station in the middle of Atlanta. We'll know better for next time.

Yay, more pics:


The 76th, just before the march. :)


Not really D*C, but I found where Jayne thinks River belongs, and it's in Warner Robins !!!


Really, don't we all feel this way ??


Look! A whimsy! She made me one happy Jimibear by getting this shot with me.


Ever wanted a size comparison between a sexy ninja kitten and a huggly Jimibear? Now you have it.


How Not to Be Seen, Kitten-style.


Hot women with big guns, yeah, I'll be in my bunk.


Apparently even the stars have to go outside for a smoke at the Marriott.


I didn't get nearly enough shots of Magda, or Rose, or MsG, but I plan to take copies of those I find on here of them that I like. It was a great Con. :)

*sneaks in!*

This is the only picture I will need.
Ever.


*glee!!*

I would like to point out that all these pictures - while quite nice - do not do people justice. You are all far more lovely in person than any picture could ever hope to capture. It was a pleasure meeting you.

*sneaks out!*

A-yep. That'd do it for me, too.

Awesome pic, HK.

YAY! Thank you Jimi! I copied it along with most of the others in this thread.

Rose: LOL! I was so busy looking at you holding that gun I didn't even notice.

Magda: I can't wait to see you! The pics come in at a very distant second. Rose did do an excellent job didn't she!

Okay, just got back home my ownself, so a little late to the thread on account of additional holiday happiness with a fellow Browncoatstress

In any case, just got off of the aeroplane and pretty much all I've had the energy to do is correct the many redeyes. I'll leave y'all with this one... for starters.

Thanks to all of you who happily posed your gorgeous selves for my camera. More to follow, if you want, once I've Adobe-ized the less crappy pix into reasonable file sizes and then Flickred 'em.

Y'all have a good time at D*C '07, or what, eh?

Hehe, I like that! What a cute idea! Then pics can be taken and those who weren't there can still be... well kinda.


Here's my lil contribution. Bryce (LittleAlbatross29) and I got together this passed Sat. and had a lil 'Not Going to D*C' party. I had such a lovely time and we even watched the 'Serenity' Special Edition! I wish we had taken more pics.

Oh, eventually. I have to clear out some of the ones already there so they'll fit, I think, and it will be a huge long pain in the arse, so probably not right away. I'm still trying to recover and haven't even gotten my blogs written yet, but I'll get it all done eventually.

So true. *huggles!* It would be hard to pick a single highlight of the con, but I think seeing you the first time was definitely one of them. I wish I could have spent more time with you. I sure seem to be saying that a lot about a lot of people, but it's so true!!
I think there was mention of an island? I would so love to live in a constant shindig.

I hope so too! I also hope a few peeps will try to get to WorldCon; it's in Denver for 2008!
Yay glomps!!!!
I'm so glad you and Bryce could have a bitty shindig together. There's nothing better than watching Serenity with another Browncoat!

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I think Gibbs said he bought them at a CompUSA that was closing, and a few 7-11s carry them, maybe a few other random places, too. However, your best bet might be to order them online: http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/candy/6b77/

Wooo! Yay for MsG pics! Oh those are awesome! I'm so glad you got a pic of Aiken's coat. It was a thing of beauty. As were his replica guns. *hopes someone has the pics of the Mal gun* And hey, that shot of 'Mal' and I came out terrific! That guy was such a good sport about it *g*
Oh. My. Goddess. Navy laughing. Proof! He'll never live it down.
Awwwww, I'm one of the most wonderful people in your world? I so honored! (I could never pick just three)

DAMN impressive shots of the 76th. You had a LOT of people show up. You needed people in Alliance outfits to march around as prisoners, though!

Did fans on the sidelines know who you were?

And - where is Washie in all these pics! I haven't seen her once :(

the whole parade route seemed to be lined with browncoats, they kept yelling out Firefly, and keep flying, browncoats, and shiny uniforms, and photographers kept dashing out into the middle of the street in front of us. The companions guild and other browncoats also looked splendid leading the way as we followed up the rear right behind the companions guild and in front of the Spartans
