See Bee_Pee at FC? Rather unlikely...

So, I was wondering about giving FC a spin again next year, so I bounced over to their homepage.
In order to enter the art show, one now needs to register for the convention itself. A special "supporting"-registration fee is now compulsory, if you wish to enter work to the show, but are unable to attend the convention yourself. I actually find this is a very clever idea, as you can't just tailgate the convention anymore. After all, you do take advantage of the infrastructure which is provided by the organising body, so it is nothing but fair to repay the organisers.
On the other hand, it means I have to do my numbers again. I have no name to boot and hence sales in the US have been bleak in the past. And my current financial conditions don't allow me to simply send art around the world for the sake of presentation and display. Who in the States would pay attention to my work anyway? Unless some kind donor puts a few dollars in the tip jar, or a registered artists offers a picture or two of mine asylum on their panels, FC is not going to happen.
Perhaps it is better that way: I can focus fully on the European Conventions. I have no hassle bringing prints along and can offer the full services. The states, that is for some other time...

Er meinte auch er könne sich damit auf die Europäischen Conventions konzentrieren und dabei ist mir eingefallen, dass ich da gerade mal zwei kenne. Und ich würde gerne mehr kennen lernen. :) So war das gemeint.
Ich hab nicht wirklich realisiert, dass du dich nur auf die letzte Zeile bezogen hast.
sorry! :D
