Why not Taurin Fox?

It's easy to get tons of people that are already wellknown and working inside the fandom.
But the more interesting people we try to find and get are people that are more on the outskirts of the fandom or contribute to the fandom without this being their main focus.
Like Tim Albee who is (at least at EF 10) mainly an independent film maker and senior animator with the goal to leave a mark in the film industry, not making nice furry movies for the fandom. Or Lance who is a working pro for SFX Makup in the film industry - and using this knowledge to make furry costumes.

So someone like Dave Barclay or Karen Prell (both Pupeteeres with the Jim Hendson Crew) would be definately more interesting than Taurin Fox. ;)

You could always start looking into webcomic artists. There are a few (Bill Holbrook, D.C. Simpson, etc.) that are very well known and have really made a mark on the fandom.

And then there would be lot of other avatar makers added to that as well :). Would virtual worlds qualify in the first place? Although Luskwood  *was the first* and nowadays does make fur suits, so they could be a good choice :)

I belive its kinda hard to find talented but 'hidden' individuals that benefit the fandom. :).

I have never been to Eurofurence before, and I haven't been able to find any info about this on the forum..

But does 2 The Ranting Gryphon come to Eurofurence every year, or..?
I really like watching his shows and stuff like that, so I would love to be able to see him when I attend EF for the first time this year.
But as I wrote, I don't know if that counts as a guest of honor ^^;; heh
