This is the official thread for information on AP08's Artist Alley.

I am Alex, head of the department for the second year going.

This FAQ was last updated on 4/8/08.

Are there still tables available?

Nope. All available tables have been filled. If I have not contacted you, then I can't fit you in. There will be an at-con waitlist if for some reason a table is not claimed. More info about this will be up when I figure out how exactly I'm organizing it.

Is there a waitlist for the AA?

Yes there is. If you want to be added, please drop a line at artists@animepunch.org

See also the section on the At-Con Waitlist

How long is the waitlist?

As of April 1st, there are over 50 people on it. If you've recently emailed me to be added to the list, it's very unlikely that you will get a table.

How much does it cost?

$15! Wow, what a deal! Please note that this does not include registration for the convention, and you must pre-reg or purchase a badge separately. Additionally, payments made with PayPal require an extra dollar to cover PayPal's transaction fees.

I emailed you [x amount of time] ago and I never got a reply! What gives?

I check the AA email almost as often as my personal email, and I'm very prompt at answering waitlist requests and questions. If you haven't gotten a reply, that probably means I never received your email. If you simply resend, I will gladly answer.

How big are the tables?
Approx. 6 feet long and 1.5 feet wide, but they may be bigger or smaller depending on the hotel's inventory.

Question not answered?
Please feel free to ask any other questions I haven't addressed. ^_^

At-Con Waitlist Info

There will be an at-con waitlist. I sent out a mass email to the people still on the waitlist, but if you are on the list and did not get it, then to get your entry put on the At-Con Waitlist, just email me with a phone number I can use to contact you.

If I can fit more tables into the AA, the opportunity will most likely present itself within 48 hours of the start of the con, and at that short notice, email may not be fast enough to notify people due to traveling and other such busy-ness. I promise your phone number and information will not be sold or treated carelessly-- I'm a trustworthy girl!

Cost will remain the same for the At-Con Waitlist: $15. Payment can be made in ConOps instead of in advance, should tables become available.

how much does it cost for one table?

USD $15.

Alright, coolness. Are we supposed to pay beforehand or when we get there or what?

I'll be sending out payment info in March, and for everybody who's made it into the Alley, they will pay me beforehand. If there are any no-shows at the convention, I will be keeping a waiting list there for anyone who still wants a table at that point.

I'm a idiot! Heres another question. >.<
I sent a e-mail to the artist's section about two or three weeks ago. Was I too late, or have you just been really busy lately?

I have a question. How long is he waitlist? I know I'm on it and I gave you my name a while ago, but if I cant get onto artist's Ally, I'd like to do staff.

I haven't left any email unanswered, to the best of my knowledge. Your message might have been bounced or otherwise lost to the internet. If you resend it, I will promptly answer!

The waitlist has 36 people on it as of this posting. I'll let you know of your specific standing in PM. ^_^

Does anyone know the size of the table?

Probably 6 feet long, 1.5 feet thick, though don't hold me to that.

Added some questions and updated a couple answers to the original post.

Just a quick question, but who do we write checks payable to?

[My bad.]

NO!!!! DON'T SAY THAT!!

Write all checks to:
AnimateOSU

Will you be accepting badge art contributions like you guys did last year? If so, sign me up!

There's a thread going for badge art in this very forum. ^_^

I'd really hate to ask, as I know you're really busy and everything, but would it be possible to know where my friend and I stand on the list? We would like to know if we have a spot, as we are attending another con two weeks before AP. We want to know if we need to make more stuff or not ^^; If you could PM me, I would really appreciate it!

Replied. ^_^

Added At-Con Waitlist info to the first post.

Will you be posting an Artist Alley Line up like the previous post from 2007 there! ? I'm curious to see who's all there.

Yup, I will! ^_^

Addded the list of artists.
