Who got to the convention first?	The guests of honor appeared at an enthusiastic opening ceremony.
Here are the first of the Illinois costumers from Friday morning.	Another group of costumers arrived on Friday afternoon.
And there were more costumers on Friday evening.	We chased down some Saturday morning cosplayers.
Bunches of costumers arrived around the noon hour.	The costuming collection got intense on Saturday afternoon.
We bring you pictures of the 62 entries in the Saturday night costume contest.	And we present the lucky and talented winners of the judges' awards from that contest.
There's also a bonus look at the groups from the Cosplayers' Mailing List and American Cosplay Paradise.	But you'll never believe what happened to one of the guests of honor right after the costume contest was over.
And we'll take one final look at the Saturday night costumers.
