Your rating: None Average: 5 (1 vote)

WikiFur officially reached 5,000 articles this week. I would like to thank all of our contributors, our supporters (who aid our efforts to promote WikiFur), and especially our administrators, who have worked tirelessly to clean up after vandals, contribute new articles, help select our featured articles and Comics of the Week, and generally ensure things run smoothly for the 2,000 people who visit every day.

God's Creatures membership opened to all

Your rating: None Average: 5 (1 vote)

Joining the original Christian furry mail group God's Creatures has been made easier.

In the past, I have run a closed group, requiring that all new subscribers come only by way of being referred by an existing member. I have lifted this requirement.

The last issue of TSAT!

Your rating: None Average: 5 (1 vote)

Hello again. This is Quentin 'Cubist' Long here, notifying you of the final TSAT update, that being #48. Yes, "final", as in "#48 is the final issue". As per usual, we've got a few items that might be of some interest to the furry community. First, we have Transwar. This is a Magic: The Gathering-like card game that revolves around transmuting oneself into favious animal forms. As well, we've got a trio of TBP stories: The next installments of Downward Spiral (by the TBP Round Robin Collective), in which all sides of the SCAB/human conflict prepare for the next battles, and Running Wild (by Duncan Cougar and Quentin Long), in which Jubatus is forced ever-closer to his breaking point; and the complete story Tlaloc's Curse (by Wolfshadow), in which secrets are joyfully revealed. We also have Bryan Derksen's Hallowe'en Cinderella, and Michael Bard's The Coyote and Road Runner Show.

During the year before his death, there was some publicity that animator Chuck Jones was creating a new cartoon character, Thomas J. Timberwolf. Not much was heard about him after Jones' death.

On October 7th the Cartoonbrew website posted this weblink to all 13 completed episodes: http://frededison.free.fr/timberwolf_cartoon/ It may not be up to Jones' classic Coyote & Road Runner cartoons or "One Froggy Evening", but animation fans can enjoy seeing that Thomas Timberwolf was indeed brought to life.
