BADGES: We have an artist for this, Kirara, she's very capable and we don't usually go over the year's badges until march. She draws and gives me the images. I then put it all together.
Now, if someone else wants to put the badges together with Kirara's art, that's fine with me, but the final product must go by me first if you intend for it to represent the GT.
As for MAKING ... I go to kinkos anyways to finish em up Print them off on my printer, go to kinkos to laminate and get the holder thingies. <3 Kinkos.

*glomps Amunet* We don't think you're dead, we're just trying to take some of the work off your shoulders!!

As for the art, I wasn't sure if Kirara was still doing the art so I didn't want to say "if Kirara does the art" just in case she couldn't But if she still can I'd be very happy, I love how the badges looked last year! *loves my Ninja Fox!* (it's still hanging by my computer...I have this massive pile of lanyards full of badges and buttons from the last two Acens hanging where I can enjoy them all the time!)

I was mostly offering to help if you're not able to do the badge work, since you seem to be kinda busy. If you still want to do the putting together and then send them to me (or someone else) to distribute at con that's fine too. I'm cool either way. I can do the polishing up, adding text and stuff to the art, and email you the graphics before printing, I've got no problem with that! (and let me just point out I've got a font collection numbering somewhere in the thousands so I can do pretty text easily!)

ETA: Almost forgot...if we were to do a glomp panel, can we mention that if people are interested in glomping there's a wonderful Glomp Team they can join?

and second:
might i add that i'll be the age of 27 at acen 09? and not all joyous glompers are at the 16yr old levels.

Glomping is for everyone!

*cough* Yeah and I'm 29 and I still walk around with a t-shirt that says "Glomp me!" on it (I wore it to a bar this summer when we were doing a staged reading there and everyone was like "What does that mean?") So yes, not all glompers are young'uns!

*glomps Smiles*


I'm still very interested in keeping the GT alive, and doing a meetup! I would offer to step up and do a lot of the running stuff in Amunet's stead but I know this semester is gonna be tough. I've got two classes (Organization of Knowledge, Reference & Online Services) that I think are going to be hard work, but fun So I don't think I'll have the time to commit to really running the show, but I can easily squeeze in a bit of graphics work on the side. Once I've got an idea of how I want the end result to look, and what font I want to use from my massive collection, it usually takes me very little time to make the graphic.

Thankfully my semester ends well before Acen, April 30 is listed as the last day of class on the one syllabus so I'll have a chance to get things together after the final paper freakout (y'all have NO idea how bonkers I was finishing up my final paper for class this past semester, and I only had ONE class!)


Anyway I've bored y'all enough. I should get some sleep...but I'm wired, so instead I'm gonna try and get my first piece of homework for the semester done (yeah class doesn't start til the 15th and I've already got a short essay due by this Tuesday...that's grad school for ya!)

*glomps back* Got your Xmas card btw, thank you very much

Actually, that would be fine if you just put a plug for the GT and you may also reference the team for rules you have learned or techniques through the GT (all shameless plugs XD) but the panel would be from your own opinions (as well as whoever will be hosting the panel).

I found this website for really c heap airplane tickets ... see now all I need is some rich person to give me money! Lol firstly so I can pay off some rent >.>

[Rini]

Eeek!

I meant to be at the panel last year and I got stuck in linecon and never got my badge ;-;

Are we doing a panel this year? <3

I'll drag alky with me <3

[ALittleMoth]

Rawr! I've been absent for some time from the glomp boards x.x nyuu. Been caught up in moving, and getting a job, and working, and all soo much stuff in the last 9 or so months.

BTW grats on getting married Amunet -runs up and pounces- yay for you!

*GLOMP* Glad you got it

I dunno if I'll be involved with the panel, if it happens, but I'll be there if I can. I just got on the Special Needs and Compliance staff, so I might have to work.

I need some rich person to give me money to pay for my bridesmaid dress and a corset to keep me in the dress and more cosplay stuffs My cousin *finally* picked her bridesmaid dresses. And I'm still unemployed. *pout*


*GLOMPS EVERYONE*

[Rini]

+snuggles+ Amunet! I forgot to congratulate you on getting marriedededed :]

This will be my last Acen as an unmarried woman, too. It's wierd to think about it @_@

[yoru]

man i looks like i might be right behind you guys. I pretty sure hes will pop the question on my birthday
i told him, " I'm not getting engaged until I'm 20." Then he gave me this look like hehehehe 20 eh?
Birthday surprise! Although i will probably make him wait until I grad.

[yoru]

glomps you back

[KnitChick]

*hugs Smiles* Yeah I need to come in here more often! Though my classes are super tough this semester so it'll be hard. But at least I've got Acen to look forward to! I think I landed myself in a pretty awesome department. *points at sig*

And then after Acen I have my cousin's wedding to look forward to! I got to see what my dress is gonna look like and it's pretty! And it matches my glasses, oddly enough, not that I'll be wearing them. But it's still cool! So I've got my Masq Ball dress for 2010 already picked out, lol!

Plus seeing all my awesome glomping friends, those are the things I'm clinging to as a lifeline when the homework starts threatening to drown me! Is it Acen time yet????

*glomps everyone in the thread* *tip toes off to dive back into the homework pile*

yeah i know how you feel

[Matt]

Ditto. I'm a biology major at Purdue, and unfortunately I'm getting a D+ in one of my classes . Hopefully I can get that bumped up to a C next week. I'm doing fairly well in all of my other classes, but they are still very difficult. Math is just not my thing. *Glomps All*

bio huh? wow you must be really smart. I'm going to change my major soon.
probally to interior design or something is fashion

[KnitChick]

I almost went into fashion design. But then I realized no, that's not where I belong. I am working on my Master's in Library Science right now, and I *love* it! Well...mostly. I love my cataloging class this semester but I'm not enjoying reference class at all. But all the professors I've met in my department are great, and the school is great, and the dean of my program is so nice!

[yoru]
