As of recent I have noticed a continuing trend of cosplayers who deem themselves "professionals" bullying other cosplayers. They throw out demeaning insults like, "your cosplays suck", "your not a real cosplayer because you bought your costume items and didnt make them", "your too fat for that", "your not the right race/color for that", "your not good at making props, you should give up", "your not allowed to create your own versions of characters", "your not on my level" & "I'm so much better than you"....

You know what's awesome? Being formally approved to be included in a book of 999 other great cosplay and costumes. A while back I entered my space marine armor photos to be possibly selected to be included in the book, last night I got an email telling me I had been selected and included instructions to submit more high resolution photos to be submitted to the books publisher for inclusion. I have been in a mental high all day, to now have the possibility to be put down in the pages of cosplay history, literally!! And the book is to be co-written by Yaya Han, who is a huge person in the cosplay community.
