Cosplayers =/= People that just want to take pictures of themselves so the rest of the world can tell them how gorgeous they are. I think cosplayers are really cool! I can't imagine doing it, but it does seem like a lot of fun, albeit pretty expensive too. o.O But a lot of these cosplayers create their own costumes, wigs, and the props they use, which shows a lot of artistic talent! Plus, they try very hard to portray the character in the picture to look believable, which is really great. :) And it's always cool to see a character come to life. ;D
