My agents probably shouldn't take this one or they'll be killed when they try to pick him up and hug him. They work with furries already and have learned to respect them as fellow sapients, but no logic can withstand the floofiness of a red panda.

I don't know if we're looking to do both days. by

I probably can, though.
Come to that, it would be useful to know if other people prefer one day or the other.
It would also be useful and much appreciated if someone other than me, possiblyHuinesoronsomeone who knows the area better than I do and has some experience with these things, were to keep track and do whatever it is that makes these Gatherings work, because I haven't the slightest idea and may well be out of contact in the days leading up to the event. I'm willing to exchange phone numbers with a few people, but I don't know yet whether or not my cell phone service will be of any use over there. Finding out is on my to-do list.

... because there's a family party on the Saturday evening. If everyone shows up on the Saturday and nobody else can make Sunday, I'll come on the Saturday and leave a bit early so I can get home in time, but it looks like I won't be able to do both days.

I don't drink alcohol, but that's still very amusing.
How many shots if one of the readers has their beverage come out their nose because of uncontrollable laughter? ^_~

Do you know, I don't think Avatar has a mini-type yet. Possibly a first? Mini-Unagi?
I'd do it, though I'm not too confident about my writing skills yet, since I've only just joined and am still working on my first Agents. That and I appear to have some obvious bias (though I suppose that's not unheard of).

Hmm...
I did catch a mini on pg. 63 (Toph Befong instead of Beifong) The clothing and some speech is anachronistic (anasocistic? Is that even a word?) and there's definitely some major problems with the characterization. I'm less worried about Toph since three years can change people, and I can see her growing up a bit (she was only 12-13 in the series and three years makes a HUGE difference at that age.) I have to say that I'm not particularly fond of the Agnst!Drama! tone that the main characters have, especially in contrast to the minor characters who all seem to have become happy-go-lucky.
The art doesn't really bother me. It's obvious that the author is at least trying - although the random photo-realism is a little disconcerting. No one said that copying and pasting was an absolute no-no for comics. (See: http://www.qwantz.com/) There might be some copyright issues with using actual images from the series sans disclaimer though.
Also: Aang's head bothers me.
There's a bunch of proportion/perspective issues, but they're not as bad as some I've seen (and drawn myself!) but Aang's head is... really bad.
As to PPC-ability, my vote is that it should be fine if you want to try and take it on. It's the Plot Continuum, not the Protectors of the Writing Continuum. Maybe there's a separate fan-comic division? Doushinji are typically well written, but I'm sure there's a few lemons out there that could use some PPCing.

Doubly fitting title! As, this monstrosity is one of the reasons I finally decided to join up here, instead of just lurking around. However, I'm not entirely clear-- does the PPC cover comics or just writing?

Whatever the case, there's no denying that this thing is terrible. I have no problems with Zutara, but I do have problems with Zutarans who create things like this. EXTREMELY lazy art with frequent copy-paste, completely inappropriate speech phrasing and dress styles, characters so far out of character they might as well be someone else (and that accounts for most of the main Avatar cast). Mai is outright evil, Azula has been lobotomized, Toph's personality appears to have been castrated...
The list goes on. And the most recent page (229) has possibly the most flagrant set of offenses, which I'm not even going to detail here.

A Sue attacks Shifu! Shifu of all people! Yeah, he's adorable and has the l33t kung fu 5k1LLz, but he's A) probably old enough to be her grandfather, B) a freakin' RED PANDA. Not even a particularly humanoid one, in which case I could kind of understand ...

Will have to save up like crazy to even try to afford train fares, unless I can find doting grandparents willing to cough up... but hells yes, count me in. I'll make it even if I have to hike down to London and back. And if a certain somebody can get his backside over to this side of the Atlantic at around the same time, that would make it even mroe awesome.
