Blotch's Conbook Cover in the Ursa Major Awards! Check it out, everyone! Blotch's awesome wraparound cover from last year's FA:United conbook has been nominated for an Ursa Major award! http://www.ursamajorawards.org/Voting.htm More formally known as the Annual Anthropomorphic Literature and Arts Award, the Ursa Major Award is presented annually for excellence in the furry arts. Blotch is up against Heather Bruton, Baron Engel, Sara Palmer, and Georgi Valchev in the "Best Published Illustration" category. We think Blotch's is the best one hands-down, but then, we've got an obvious bias. You've got until April 20th to cast your vote! | | Wednesday, March 12th, 2008 | 7:19 pm

Registration for Everyone (Dealers, Too!) Folks, we're proud to announce that registration for FA: United 2008 is now open to everyone, including dealers! Groupie registration (our basic level) is just $30, and we've got some excellent perks for our Roadie, Front Row, and Number One Fan levels too! Check it out on our website: http://faunited.org/register.html Registration for dealers is open as well! We're rockin' a bigger room and better space this time around, and it's still just $70 for the weekend for a full 6-foot table, or $40 for a half. That makes you a Groupie for the rest of the convention, too! If you'd like a table in our dealer room, or if you've got questions about selling your wares at FA:U, send an email to dealers@faunited.org. We'll confirm that space is available for you, and send you all the information you need. Watch us on FurAffinity!We'll be posting news and updates about the convention, especially about artwork for it, to our journal and gallery on FurAffinity as well. Add us to your watch list and keep an eye on what's happening! http://www.furaffinity.net/user/faunited/ | | Friday, March 7th, 2008 | 4:35 pm

Dealer registration?
I've noticed that the FAU webpage has pre-registration up. But I have not yet heard or seen anything about dealer registration yet.
I am interested in being a dealer or even in an artist's alley if you have one. I'd appreciate it to learn when dealer registration is anticipated to open. | | Monday, December 17th, 2007 | 12:31 pm

Parking at the new hotel.
I went to the FA:U2 website and saw this about parking.
"Self Parking for guests attending FA: United '08 is Complimentary. Overnight hotel guests are discounted to $10.00 per night. Valet Parking for overnight guests is $25.00."
Does this mean that if you're attending the con, parking is free if you don't use valet services, but anyone else at the hotel (not attending the con) pay $10/night? | | Thursday, November 22nd, 2007 | 12:42 am

DJing for FA:U 2008 Hey all. FA: United was a total blast last year and seeing as we're doing it all over again, I got to thinking. Would you guys be interested in hiring an up-and-coming DJ for next year? I've started recently and I think I've gotten really good at it. As far as musical styles, I play a lot of Happy Hardcore/UK Hardcore, J-Core, Darkwave, and similar stuff. I've got all the equipment I need, and I'd just need a sound system to play it through. I'm also willing to do it for free, just because I have so much fun with it, and I'd love to DJ to an actual crowd. I even have a podcast available of my radio show at Johnson, VT if you want some idea of what it would sound like. The podcast is at http://feeds.feedburner.com/HulexYou can either download the MP3s from the blog directly, or paste that URL directly into itunes to automatically download and listen to my latest shows. Anything that says it is a "nonstop mix" will give you an idea of what my "set" would sound like. So, what do you guys think? Will you like to hear DJ Hulex Chan perform at FA:U 08?

FA united recap with pictures This post was transfered from my own journal It was 2 or 3 weeks ago I went to the Raleigh local sci fi convention with ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) d_l_leonine, freecat68, wally_wolf and Jaeger Fuchs. During the con I told Jaeger the idea to go up north to visit Foxwell, and that reminds him about FA united, so I considered it for a while and decided to attend the con after all (only 1 hr away from NY anyway) ( massive journal and pictures behind the cut ) I guess picture pretty much tells you how I feel during this trip ;) I really glad I took Jaeger's suggestion and went to the con, I met new friends and had really great connection with the old ones too. To me it was like I celebrated my birthday a week early without any cake or candles (well...there was one, wearing pink thingy lol) without gifts, just to be at some place enjoy myself with friends that loves me, was really a wonderful birthday I ever had. Thank you all my friends I met at FAU *hugs foxwell tight* especially Foxwell and dreamwolf :3 I love you guys all  If you would like to see more pictures please visit my gallery : http://gallery.timduru.org/v/Furry/Kofu/FAUNY/con gallery : http://www.flickr.com/groups/faunited/pool/Timduru's website : http://fursuit.timduru.org/view/FurryCon/FAUnited(sorry I used these pictures without asking for promission, hope it is OK after all :P) Current Mood: hmm | | Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007 | 5:08 pm

Hello, LOOKING FOR A ROOM MATE OR TWO Hello, this is abit off topic, but I live in West Lawn, PA, I'm lookin for any furs in the area that is looking for a new place to live, and/or has a job. I can get you a job, it won't be glorious, and you won't be rich but it'll pay enough to pay the rent I'm gonna charge you, and pay for your other expenses:) I just need some people to share some expenses with and hangout, my home is empty. I'd like some company, would love to start a furhouse maybe even start my own pack. Yes, I know I'm a cat, but I like pack mentalities, so I must have some wolf in me someplace. Anyone interested?

Thanks For an Awesome Time! Wow, what a great con! We'd like to thank the furry community for helping us make FA United 2007 one of the most successful first-year furry conventions ever. You made our charity raffle a huge success -- the folks from the Lakota Wolf Preserve absolutely love you guys. Thanks to all of our volunteers as well; we couldn't have done it without you. Thank you to our Guests of Honor Blotch and Roxikat, for their unending support. And thanks to Sicamor Rooney and The Gay Blades for bringing the house down on Saturday night.
Final Attendance: 310
Fursuiters: 25
Money Raised for Charity: $1,500 $1,600
Now we know lots of you took some great pictures -- why not share 'em with your fellow furs? Come and join our Flickr group, post links to your photo galleries in our thread at the FurAffinity boards, or in our new Post-Con Discussion forum.
Also, for anyone who'd like a t-shirt or conbook who didn't get one, keep an eye on our site -- we'll be offering them up soon.
Thank you all again, and we hope to see you in 2008! | | Wednesday, August 15th, 2007 | 2:39 pm

Thankies! Thanks for the great con, everyone! The location could use some work, but it had a nice charm. :> Here's a video I took during the Gay Blades performance.

Awesome con That was a really great con. I've only been to Anthrocon before, so going from 3000 to 300 attendees was a big shock, but it was still really fun. My one complaint is... you guessed it, the hotel, for reasons that everyone else has explained. I just fixed and uploaded my pictures, they are on my website at http://finnish_fox.furtopia.org/galfau1.htmlAnd one more thing to remember: THIS IS SPARTAAAAAA!!!! |
