I've been wanting to make my own (The basic ones are cute, but just not enough) and would love to make some! Might even be able to make some for those with nothing close (mice, horses, misc. reptiles, etc.) but I've yet to see someone say how, if normal members even can.

So, I dunno, about seven years ago I discovered the furry fandom and roughly a year after that considered myself a fur--though to be honest, I don't think I really was a fur until recently. You see, my only contact of the fandom was through erotica, so I was honestly just as bad as some of the people who think that's all the furry fandom is about. Recently (within the last three years), I came to the profound realization that that isn't even close to the point of the fandom. It's just a part of it that exists.

So, my question to you is this actually twofold:

1. We're any of you in the same boat as me? Limited by your own misconceptions?

2. How did you pick your fursona? I'm have difficulties with developing mine and thought you'd be the best people to ask!

Being curious as i am, i was wondering what the public's (specifically /r/samplesize due to limitations) current opinion on furry s Fandom is. Well here are the results! Although not nearly as useful as the kinda data that the IARP gathers it is still nevertheless interesting.(Obvious disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with the IARP) Here are two basic charts i made: http://imgur.com/a/RoEDs (This was basically the first time I've ever created a survey) Now the interesting part was in peoples responses and comments. Since i can't find a good way to share these with all of you I'll simply share the raw data. Raw data: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YwBQ-AI_JPxL1FRxCSvj7FGT2xr9ixN52oEa6UOTOmc/edit?usp=sharing Thanks for reading!

Hey guys, furrst time posting. Over the past few years I've found my self really drawn to falcons and harpy eagles. To the point where I want to be one. I'd give anything to be able to grip a salmon in my talons. I'm not sure if you would call me a furry, because eagles and falcons have feathers. Am I in the right place?

Cacawwww!

Occult investigation and silly supers in a webcomic world gone weird…

Taco El Gato

Currently funding on Patreon

Before I begin this little review, I need to establish “Kricfalusian” as an adjective, because John Kricfalusi and his weird little monkeys, Ren and Stimpy, have left their greasy thumbprints over so much of modern cartooning, it’s hard to tell what’s his influence and what’s just particles in the 21st century atmosphere. It’s like asking a fish, “Hey, fish, what’s it like being in a constant state 2.3 ATM?” They just look at you and do that fish mouth thing.

Anyway, the ever-so-slightly eyeball-searing world of Taco El Gato.

Meet Taco. In at least one of his lifetimes–he has two, going on three, right now, so your Taco experience may vary. And like all webcomics the style evolves over time, one of those big inevitables of the genre. So, like I said, Meet Taco.  He’s your basic gangling, awkward slacker of a cat, content to hide in a room full of black light posters and lava lamps and avoid the hell out of the real world.

This is definitely science

At least, in at least one of his lives. Sometimes he’s a part-cat, part-taco crime-fighting machine, with “amazing” powers of tacogenesis at his disposal and a righteous thirst for both justice and Taco Bell’s “medium” sauce. Despite his best efforts, he does occasionally manage to save the day, though his biggest mutant power is “ability to overcome himself…barely.”

Either Taco is a reluctant hero–the first, a slacker whose passion for trying to find Sasquatch and chupacabra gets him dragged into a very weird world, the second, a slacker with really dubious powers who doesn’t want much more than to spontaneously manifest a good meal for a hungry passerby. His home life? Not so hot. In a world where cats and dogs barely get along, he’s a cat adopted and raised by dogs, not really at home on either side of the fence.

Like the classic Tex Avery cartoons (and their Krikfalusian grandchildren), Taco El Gato is a happy mix of quirky (or lovingly dumb) humor, hopeless characters, and the occasional T&A joke. They’re pretty cute, and the slacker jerk who just might make it in the world has a lot of appeal as a character.

Taco El Gato, and its creator, Candy Briones, are both funding over on Patreon, and it sounds like Taco is going to make a season three journey back to his non-hero self  to get a little deeper into both cryptozoology and catnip (with a few “Cheech and Chong” jokes in there, for good measure.)

For the most part, the rewards for Candilicous’s Patreon are what you’d expect–early access to the comic and sketchs, and some fun “behind the scenes” videos at the premium level. There’s an odd $100/month level–v-e-r-y rich, more appropriate to Kickstarter than Patreon, with a lot of fun stuff, but that feels a little like it should be rewards for a one-time gift, not a pledge of, say, $1000 a year or so. This may not be intentional.

One problem I’ve had wrapping my head around is the weirdly spread-out nature of Taco’s various projects and side projects. Since it’s a single ongoing series–I think–it’d be reasonably well-served by a single website, but the Taco Empire is vast, with content on Facebook, the original comic on SmackJeeves, the “Supers” comic on its own site, and the low-content splash page with different versions of the same comic with the comic buried several clicks deep (or just unavailable on that site)–the intellectual property’s spread pretty wide, and may need to be brought under one roof. Neither here nor there, just a thought.

Anyway! Taco El Gato’s a fun webcomic in the Harold and Kumar/Dude, Where’s My Car mold, with a bright, 90s-retro art style. It’s a fun universe(s) to poke around in, check it out and consider chipping into Candy’s art fund (maybe not at the $100 level, though :) )

I'll start with my own. I can't draw a human to save my life and color seems to be the only way I can show the difference in species.

A ring I was planning to use to propose to my mate went missing over the weekend while at TFF. Neither Con Ops nor Hotel staff were able to find it.

If you found it, please contact me.

Pictures of the ring. http://imgur.com/a/tOOyY

It's a 10 karat gold ring with a ridged pattern on either side of the face. It has around twenty stones in the centerpiece in a circular formation with a single stone in the center. On the inside of the ring is an engraving of three letters and 10k, denoting it's a 10 karat ring. Please help, I'm begging you.

Hello all you wonderful furs of reddit! I find myself wanting to pose a question as I feel like the answers would be very interesting to read, so here it goes!

If you could travel back in time to find a younger you and tell them one thing, what age you would you approach and what would you tell them?

As for myself I would go back to when I was 14 and introduce myself to the furry fandom! A lot of horrid shit happened to me around that time and I feel like I would have not only handled things better with the support of friends like you all but I also feel that I would have taken the time to truly learn more about myself at a younger age if I had known about the fandom in general. Looking forward to reading all replies!! :3
