-----------Happening Now!:-------------------
Subscription
Who gave us a subscription? O:
Anyways, this layout is kind of temorary.
I got it from =Freesong, and it's free to use, so yay! XD


New Section:
I updated the journals to reflect the fact that we have attendance deviations and sign-up sheets. <3

Also.
If you're looking for someone, you can use the club to find them!~
I'm thinking about making a deviation for 'finding people'.
But until then, it'll just be a section the journal. Check it out~ Someone could be looking for you~!

Meetup
Looks like 10:30 AM, Saturday, is winning. Be sure to vote in the poll!
If that's the time that wins, I'm sorry for all you guys who miss it! D:


Okay, so I'll leave the time poll up for a while longer~ Ano...another week.
Now I need a list of all the places we could meetup.
Please keep in mind we will probably have an Iron Artist Competition. (Artist vs. Artist and a book of the drawings to post online!) If it is windy, we may have to move~!
So far the list reads as:

--Fountain across from Waverly pickup.
--Lobby area: Not the food lobby, the lobby with the clock and elevators, the lobby of the Waverly.
--The crosswalk from the Galleria to the Sheraton. (It is accessible on Saturday morning)
--<s> Houston, Texas </s>
--Your idea here~!


Places that have been ruled out!:
--A Hotel room: Sorry, but that's just going to creep out some people/people's parents.
--A restaurant nearby, like wafflehouse: To be honest, when I went in just a kitty outfit when I was 14, they kinda freaked out. Also, traveling is an issue, especially for people with costumes, because it's frickin hot in Georgia. (Local resisdent. )
--Top of parking deck: Security around there is tight, and I really doubt they would want that.



Just as a head's up, once we get the place and time settled, it'd be nice if some people could help to spread the word that there is the meetup. If you have a table, just print out an image (I think I'll make one) or type it up in word that the meetup will be at *time* and *place.* : D If you could also add the url for the club to that, it'd be great.
Also, if anyone would like to print out some slips with the club's url on it, that' be pretty cool, too. <3 We'd all love you extra. Yes...that's right...hugs! XD

Artist Alley/AAM Registration

The registration is now closed, confirmation letters will be sent out sometime in the next few weeks. I will update again when Ronin announces he has sent them out.

~Shurikane is looking for an -artist-.
"Hi everyone. I'm looking for a particular artist I spoke to at AWA 2006. She drew this picture for me:

Unfortunately, I forgot to jot down her name and contact info, so I have no way to give proper credit whenever I show the picture elsewhere. Would anyone here happen to recognize the style/signature and have a link to the artist?"

Hello and welcome to the DA club dedicated to Anime Weekend Atlanta!

>> In case you didn't already know...AWA (Anime Weekend Atlanta) is an annual anime convention in Atlanta.


This club was made as a way for artists(okay, anyone...) going to AWA to meet up, as well as to identify and broadcast themselves. However, it is not directly affiliated with AWA.

Also, if you're checking the AWA website daily to see if the AA is up...quit that! Just watch this club's journals and you'll easily see when it's up. ;] I always post a journal about it. :3

could a good meeting place be outside of the VAT? that's near the AA, and I bet some of the artists wanting to meet up would have an AA table O: I dunno though. XD
What's this about an Iron Artist Competition? o.O?

hey, the link to shurikane's image isn't working for me.
okay, it just occured to me, maybe the VAT isn't such a great place because it's right smack dab in the middle of the con, so just ignore what i just suggested~ XD

Man....as a newbie to AWA, I'm a little bummed that tables went so fast. I had NO idea that I would have to watch the forums like a hawk to get one. ;__; I guess you live and learn, right? I'll just have to keep an eye out for next year. In the meantime, I'll just have to keep plugging away and getting more art up. I've got to seriously get some new pieces up.

I like the idea of the fountain. I met there for a Death note AND Bleach photoshoot, and it was quite comfy. There was also a shady grassy area near the fountain we could meet up at and sit, unless people are afraid of getting grass stains maybe. I don't think they have ants out there. I don't know though.

The fountain makes the most sense. Unless we meet at the food court in the Galleria Center/mall. I say this merely due to the fact that there will be so very many of us and logistics would be a nightmare otherwise. Plus, some people don't come with cars as you said.

Actually, there's the shopping center across from the hotel. There's subway there and a few other restaurants/fast food places.
Well even if they did have an AA table, the setups last year were AMAZING. It would be hard to take them down, really. XD; But there might be a spare table....I mean really, I might eventually just leave the meetup to run itself and have people drop the pictures off at my table. 8D Thanks for the suggestion though. :3


The iron artist details are still kind of being worked out. :3 Whereas with the AMV Iron chef thing is two people, this could be a handful, and I'm not sure how many people would show up, but I would think at least how many people sign the attendance sheet, or somewhere around there~ And last year that was a pretty big number. <_< THe AA gets clogged up as is, ya know?
Oh crap. I'll fix it. XD
