I can only find this small preview.



I checked here and can only find the individual confetti photos from 2016.

The confetti photoshoot pics are great, thanks to all the staff concerned you did a great job.

They whined about us and the quality of the hotel.

On returning to the hotel at about 11pm the bar was full of furry animals sprawled out over the sofas some behaving inappropriately, more club 18-30 than Hilton, so we were unable to have a drink as planned as it was an uncomfortable atmosphere.

Around 280 photos 500 photos are here almost all fursuiters with just a few more pics to follow.

All are resized to 1280 x 960, typical file size per photo is 200kB.

I have many other photos, of the hotel in general, CFz signage(such as the Brok cut-outs), the retro gaming machines, is it worth me uploading these as well?

CFz was great this year, thanks to all the Confuzzled staff and volunteers for working tirelessly and making it all possible, they really did us proud.

Queues this year were kept to a minimum which I attribute to better organisation.

The PawPet show was awesome only spoiled slightly by a slight fault with the RH projector losing signal intermittently.

The fursuit lounge was huge, well equipped and for the first time had mirrors.

The food selection was great and the hotel staff were courteous and helpful.

As previously announced the outside areas were limited and certainly not as picturesque as at the old hotel, but lots of space inside the hotel.

Thankfully the weather stayed dry during the fursuit parade so that it included outside areas which was good.

I feel the fursuit group photo would have been better if it were taken outside the hotel in the car park, the overlooking balconies would give everyone a birds eye view for taking photos.

I look forward to attending CFz again next year.  :)

I will be arriving on the 22nd and I understand that our rooms will be accessible after 3:00pm, if I arrive at say 11:00am is there any secure storage for cases and other belongings as I wouldn't want to have to sit with my cases or drag them around the hotel?

Room & Transport Sharing / Looking for a roomshare
« on: January 28, 2014, 00:12:26 »
I have booked into a standard twin room (with two beds) and am looking for a roomshare.

I am a 45 y/o straight male.

I will be attending from the 23rd to 27th May and also early arrival 22nd to 23rd may.

This will be my third year at CFz, I am a fursuiter and will be bringing my fursuit.

I am usually up around 8:00am and asleep by about midnight. I don't snore.

I don't smoke and won't be drinking at CFz, and certainly no room parties.

PM me if interested I have also posted for a roomshare on UKFur.

I put together some of the better video clips I took at CFz2013 into a single video.

It's far from perfect and the first time I have tried editing video.

Due to copyright of the audio track it may be blocked in some countries so I will also upload another copy without audio.

Also got a few more videos here with more to be added.

It was better this year and I quite enjoyed watching, thanks to the organisers and volunteers for such a great performance.

If I remember there were some minor technical hitches last year.

I have processed and cropped one small lot of fursuit photos and have another two almost full 8gb SD cards to sort through.

The first lot of pictures are here:

Some night time photos taken outside the hotel in the early hours of Monday.

Also got some video footage but although it's HD size it appears grainy particularly in low light conditions, I may upload some of it to YouTube later.

Feedback / The food
« on: June 04, 2013, 11:58:09 »
The breakfast menu was great and everything I ate cooked to perfection. The rolling buffet was a bit iffy at times though I had burger and chips from there on Thursday and it was great but on Friday the food that was left was unpalatable, the cottage pie was a vile mess, cold hot-dog sausages and the rolls stale and dried hard.  :(

Feedback / A mirror for the fursuiters
« on: June 04, 2013, 11:37:13 »
Some cheap inexpensive A3 size mirrors would have been a useful addition to the fursuit lounges. I found myself having to return to my room to check that the fur around the base of my head was sitting neatly on my shoulders and that the ribbon of my badge was the Confuzzled side showing.

Room & Transport Sharing / Room share
« on: September 18, 2012, 00:30:45 »
OK so I was too late to get a single room this year as they were all sold out so I had to settle for a room for two with two separate beds, on the plus side it worked out cheaper.

Who wants to share a room with me?

I am a 43 year old male from South Wales.

I have a fursuit and will be bringing it with me to the con.

Always been a non smoker and I don't drink much (I won't be drinking during the con).

At Confuzzled 2012 I was awake around 8:00am and asleep around midnight.

Any more details you can PM me.

With the convention only a few weeks away maybe a to-do list for the newbies amongst us, things to remember to bring, time slots for arrival and departure etc?

Discussion / Fursuit advice
« on: January 14, 2012, 00:19:11 »
This is to be my first time fursuiting as I expect it will be for others attending so I thought I should ask some advice.

What should I wear under my fursuit?

Should I bring a needle, thread and hot glue gun just in case of emergency repairs?

How long should I wear my fursuit before taking a break and are there any dangers of heat exhaustion etc? I notice it gets hot in my fursuit even after a short length of time.

Can anybody recommend any cooling devices cool packs cooling vests?

Any advice would me most appreciated.  :)
