Best viewed in HQ. Giraffes are one of the world's tallest mammals. They are well known for their long necks, long legs, and spotted patterns.

Males weigh between 2400 and 3000 pounds and stand up to 19 feet tall! Female giraffes weigh between 1600 and 2600 pounds and grow to be 16 feet tall.

most, if not all of the costume contest contestants. i was Prince Derek (the blond in the blinding white with the blue sash), an OC of mine so i had my friends recording the show. ^^;; i forgot to tell her it was my 4 gig so she recorded a few seconds of each contestant. to save memory (and battery because my charger was left at home. xp) over all i loved the entries. especially the kids though, they were too cute for words. my experience: Lady Ciel Phantomhive (who completely deserved that massive win) drew my refference picture for me. XD;; i lost beads in the judging room. but i had a lot of fun on stage. i love what the host said about the ish hours being at the convention. LOL because i was up at 4:30 sunday morning sewing beads onto the tunic. so it technically took me about 42 hours total. even though i didn't win anything i had a lot of fun. look out for me at Zonacon this year as Dartz from Yu-Gi-Oh
