Toddler & Tiger cub

Fursday - Watch List - Sat 18 Jan 2014 - 12:15

Can’t help but smile inside as I watch the toddler and tiger cub play chase about. Good job there’s a sheet of glass though.

You can see more pictures of tiger cubs at https://www.pdza.org/tiger-cubs/ The world's tigers are vanishing from the wild at an alarming rate. Poaching and human encroachment on tiger habitat are pushing these magnificent animals toward extinction. The race to save these critically endangered species is urgent - and we would love your help!

Furcon, Silicon Valley's last, best hope at weird, comes to town

Furries In The Media - Sat 18 Jan 2014 - 06:42


Here is an article in the January 17 edition of the online Silicon Valley Business Journal:
http://www.bizjournals.com/sanjose/news/2014/01/17/furcon-silicon-valleys-last-best.html

It discusses the Further Confusion 2014 convention, and its financial and cultural impact on the Silicon Valley area.


Greg Baumann
Editor in Chief- Silicon Valley Business Journal

Furries mean a lot of things to Silicon Valley. Their annual gathering in San Jose will fill thousands of hotel rooms and they’ll spend more than $3 million eating, drinking and shopping.

But the impact of furries, those folks who dress up in fuzzy animal costumes for fun, goes waaay beyond economics. Furries represent Silicon Valley’s last, best hope at getting weird.

I use the word advisedly. In the sense that Silicon Valley should be most eager to embrace.

A flood of 4,000 people dressed in animal costumes injects a desperately needed spore of creativity into Silicon Valley’s monoculture. A psychological realignment is forced on office workers when they have to cede the sidewalk to a group of pedestrians comprised of a marmot, a fox and a faerie wearing green tights.

Steve Jobs said his acid trips expanded his consciousness. Furcon does the same for Silicon Valley.

Furcon, this year titled "Further Confusion vs. The World: 2014" runs through Jan. 20 at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose.

Doing a few free sketches!

Furry Reddit - Sat 18 Jan 2014 - 05:21

Heyo, doing a few free sketches in this manner http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12527161/ to practice some technique

I prefer to design stuff, as working of a sheet is kind of a hassle when it comes to trying to maintaining speed, so if you can provide me with information for a revision of your character or something like that, it'd be great!

Help with Fursona coloring.

Furry Reddit - Sat 18 Jan 2014 - 01:53

I'm relatively new to the fandom, and have decided to create my own fursona. It's a mix between a border collie and a grey wolf, and I'm having a little trouble figuring out a good mix between the two as fare as coloring goes.

Border collie I am considering using

Wolf I am using

If any of you have ideas about patterns, advice would be greatly appreciated. Also if anyone has some names of good artists for a possible future commission, I'd be thankful of that too.

Thanks!

What's this about a mass exodus?

Furry Reddit - Fri 17 Jan 2014 - 21:59

Heya! So, I really really don't want to bring any drama here, but I'm relatively new to FA, and as soon as I start becoming active I hear about some mass of people leaving, and all kinda drama. I have no idea what the hell' song on 0_0

Should I go to a furry convention?

Furry Reddit - Fri 17 Jan 2014 - 17:36

I'm only 14, and I barely have a fursona in mind. Are there other teens/tweens there as well? How nice are the people there?
