Toothless on the Printed Page
Later this month Titan Comics premiers not one but two volumes of their new digest-sized full-color comic based on the hit TV series Dragons: Riders of Berk. From the preview at Broken Frontier: “Titan Comics proudly presents all-new original adventures of Hiccup and Toothless! A thrilling all-ages publication and a broadening of the How To Train Your Dragon universe. Featuring gorgeous animation-inspired artwork by Iwan Nazif, and written by Simon Furman (Transformers, Doctor Who Magazine, Thundercats).”

Need help finding story.
I was reading a fantasy romance story somewhere online at least a year and a half ago, but likely longer, and I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it. I'm fairly certain it was being translated from Japanese, but don't quote me on that. I cannot remember the species of any of the characters, but I do recall that the female protagonist could discovered she had some proficiency in magic and could control plants or something. Thanks in advance for any help.

Anyone else going to Furnal Equinox?
I've never been to a furry convention before and this one's near me so I thought I'd check it out. According to its site it draws quite a few people out each year. I also hear it's better with friends. I can't find anyone who's not really busy from midterms so I'm going alone.
Are any of you guys going?
Edit: also do you guys have any tips for being at a con? I've done Fan Expo but all I do there is roam around.

Why are bright, vivid colors so popular in fursona-design, instead of more natural colors?
I've always wondered this. I had always imagined that one would want to keep to more muted, realistic colors; but from the different fursonas I've seen, unnatural colors seem to be more common than natural ones!
Would love to hear anyone's thoughts on this.

With my last post's success, I've decided to join the Furry situation. I present: my "Fursona". Am I cool yet?

[DISCUSSION] Just had a crisis...
I've been a furry for 6 years; and in all that time; I have mostly been in the closet about it; and this has made me semi bi-polar... In RL, I am asexual, and online I am gay.
My university had a carnival thing yesterday; and at that was a girl in a partial fursuit.
Once I saw this; my brain crashed to a halt; as I began seriously questioning whether I was still fit to be part of this fandom.... Help?
