Wooo!  Lovely, lovely pictures!  Glad you got some good ones of Jim, the blurry he-devil!

LOL!  I took more than 100 pictures.

I got those 3.

To give you an idea of the crowds-

This is the line to get on the floor on Preview Night.  This is just the people with 4 day passes who got off work early enough to start lining up before the doors opened.  This is a SMALL, SMALL, SMALL amount of people compared to what was there later that night.



And these are shots taken of the dealer's floor from above on what was probably the least crowded day and time.  (These were taken around dinner time on Thursday.)  To give you an idea of the vastness of the convention floor itself, this really is just a small portion in the middle.



More Jim stuff, from Saturday:

HBO really, really pushed True Blood at the con.



Titus Pullo!  (I mean... Ray Stevenson.  And... Darla.  Promoting Punisher: War Zone)



I'm just going to post a few cast pictures from various shows in case anyone is interested.

The River-nator and Sarah Connor (Summer Glau and Lena Heady) from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.


Brian Austin Green (yes, the guy from 90210), Summer Glau, Lena Heady and Thomas Dekker for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.


Some of the cast of Pushing Daisies: Chi McBride, Ana Friel, and Lee Pace.


Sam and Dean Winchester (Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles) and one of the writers from Supernatural.

Here is a link to my flickr set of Jim on Friday, July 25th at Comic Con SD.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/newtosandiego/sets/72157606436442826/

First I have some shots of his "Spotlight On" panel.  Not too blurry, but tough to get anything really good in that room with the table and water pitchers in the way.  Oh, and terrible lighting for photos.

Then I have shots Jim signing autographs after the panel.  Beautiful lighting in the pavilion where he signed autographs.

So I met Priscellie by happy coincidence.  Did I meet anyone else?  I was one of the Dresden clones, but A) I WAS NOT WEARING A HAT  and B) I had a goatee.  Anyone?
