Deviation Actions
There is an artist here on DA (who I watch and watches me) who has drawings of me (some include my boyfriend or my friends and Sam) in her gallery. She says that she had people pose for her or that they are original creations, when they are blatant copies of photos I have had taken by Maboroshi (www.risingsun.net). Perhaps even traced off a computer monitor.
Sure, these drawings are from years ago, but I only recently stumbled over them. I asked her nicely in a comment on her profile here to put the proper credit (Maboroshi as photographer and the appropriate models) in the descriptions. I have the originals to some of the pictures, and I think I should post links to them on the individual deviations.
Here is where the advice comes in. These drawings were posted cir. 2006. Is it too late to have her post proper credit? Should I track down the rest of the photos used? Should I contact DA?
Is it too late?
Should I move on and ignore it?
I am stuck...

I checked her profile, and she *seems* to have deleted the ones of me and Roy, and she hid my comment without replying. I posted one of the photos of Roy and me on my profile (from an EGL shoot), so I think she got rid of all of those, but these others remain.

Confidence boost, say what?!? ^o^
Out of curiosity, I decided to look up "The Fight Card Cosplay" in the search bar on the main page. Mostly, because I am usually so proud of ~ShinraiFaith (https://www.deviantart.com/shinraifaith) for having a deviation on the first "Most Popular Deviations of all time" page.
Well, I was surprised to see that my costume is featured on the first page twice, but not through my own profile, haha. I am usually really hard on myself concerning my cosplay, and I really don't see myself as some sort of high-class cosplayer (upper middle-class, maybe!).
It's a real boost to my cosplay confidence to see my work featured under "Most Popular Deviations of all time." :]

Megacon 2011 review!
Another year, another Megacon over (weird to think next year marks 10 years since my first Megacon, and I have only missed one, 2003, that whole time!!), and it was a great one! I never encountered any drama (*gasp*), and there were a LOT of AMAZING costumes! The costume/civilian ratio is starting to be more in favor of costumes!! Looking through galleries makes me notice how many awesome costumes I missed!
Friday, I wore my Black and White Lolita dress, so I was nice and comfy. Bought my ticket (didn't even have to wait that long!!), helped ~Neko-Kaolla (https://www.deviantart.com/neko-kaolla) to get hers, and we wandered around. Found :iconeglpirate: and Julie got some photo
Only a few more days....
Just a few more days until Megacon! Currently, I am helping ~Neko-Kaolla (https://www.deviantart.com/neko-kaolla) recover from Mono (we are determined that she will survive the weekend), but I still want to pull out "the Beast" (aka the wig for The Fight) and trim off flyaways and see about taming the pigtails for Saturdays. I did a makeup test on about 3/4 of my face last week, and wrote down what I did so I can save time on Saturday morning. :D
Finished schedule:
Friday - Black and White EGL
Saturday - The Fight
Sunday - Susan Test (so excited about this one!!!)
See everyone there!
Oh! BTW, anyone who is going to be in town on Thursday for Megacon who wants a warm-up ph
