Anthony, Don't think about the 85,000 frenzied artists looking over your shoulder and drooling (when they aren't passing out from excitement). After all, virtual drool doesn't get into the camera controls. A long shot of the booth all set up (before the doors to the exhibit hall open and you can see the booth) followed by a cramped shot of people's backs as they crowd around would make a nice comparison. Of course we want to see a close-up or clean shot of anything interesting on monitor or box. However, I think that the most important images would be smiling faces of the CuriousLab Rats (with identifying captions). Don't forget to have someone take a picture of you, too! I like having someone's image in mind when exchanging emails or phone calls... and this community is more closely bound than most product/consumer relationships. During tear-down after the Chicago WorldCon, a friend snapped a picture of me lying on my dealer's table like a dead thing. Someone else had dropped a bouquet of flowers on me, and I hadn't the energy to open my eyes. As to booth babes, 2 years ago at Origins a lady wearing a peacock blue chain mail dress and nothing under it was walking around, and the year before that, TSR's "helpers" wore chain mail bikinis with nothing under them, either. I don't know how much attention their products got. ;^) Carolly
