Fursuiter.Net - Fursuit detection and identification system idea (looking for feedback and dev)

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 18:08

Hi all! Jacktail here!

I am the guy behind Fursuiter.net and Furstre.am. Fursuiter.net is a new project and I had the idea today to implement something and I would love to hear what you think of the idea.

If you don't know what this new site is go take a look http://fursuiter.net/

Simply the idea is to create a system that is able to detect fursuits (mainly the faces) to tag photos on the site. This is just like facial detection but for fursuits.

There are a few things that this offers, automated tagging of suiters in photos, this saves people having to do it themselves when uploading many photos and also photos that they do not know who the suiter is.

Also users would be able to upload external photos to identify suiters.

So yea, want to know what you all think of this feature. Any ideas that you want to add? Also would be looking for someone to develop this, if you are interested in this then head over to our forum https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/fursuiter/GcnDxsFzVzI

Thanks all!

Author: crossaffliction I know this sort of thing can be annoying to some Flayrah readers (or viewers, as is the case here), but it’s been around for a while, and you’ve had plenty of time to make peace with it. Besides, some people like this sort of thing. But enough about dubstep. Here’s a short […]

How did your parents/siblings react when they found out you were a furry?

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 16:46

I ask this because I'm planning to come out to someone close to me who is right on my tail (about to discover it for themselves). Any advice on how to approach this would also be appreciated.

Questions about making a fur-suit. Please Help.

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 14:49

So one of my friends wants to make a fur-suit, and I want to make one to, but we don't know anywhere that would sell faux fur that we could afford massive amounts of the fur, and I was wondering if anyone had any idea where we could buy the things we need to make them, ranging from fur to anything else you think we may need. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Not new, just introducing myself!

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 14:42

Hey, all!

My name's Fefethil, just thought I'd make another generic 'ohai' post to clutter your front page with.

Anyways, hiya! I'm a fennec fox/husky hybrid (hence the term fusky), and just wanted to introduce myself to the r/furry community, and to shamelessly plug my gamer tag, steam and skype because reasons! Give me an add if you wanna chat, game, or what have you! I'm usually more into strategy, racing and FPSs, soo.... Yeah.

Skype: fefethil

Steam: fefsfusky

Xbox Live: Fefs the Fusky

I also do art and recolours if you're interested. I don't charge or bite, so feel free.

Naming conventions

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 10:38

We've all noticed that furries tend to name themselves in different ways but what I'm wondering is how people make that decision. All of my characters, fursona included, have real names, first, last and in a few instances a middle. Even the one with a unrealistic name has an actual first name. But I'm getting off track.

See, what I'm curious about is WHY you named your character as you did. Real names, two words pressed together like from the warriors books, Sanic style (rouge the bat, blaze the cat... Just X the Y names) or even things like "Carl Llama" where it's written as "Name Species" and if you could easily shift your name without confusing others, would you?

I'm new here! Introductions are in order!

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 08:44

Hello all! My name is swiftpaw and I'm a wolf. No one knows but you guys that I'm a furry. I discovered the fandom after finding a piece of art that I really like. (It wasn't yiff art.. I'm not really into yiff that much, but I do like well drawn anthro nudes.) I have never had any art commissioned for me, so I don't really have a 'sona to show you... Unfortunately no fursuit either. I have never been to a convention but I would love to go.. I just haven't had the spare money/ any furs to go with.. I would not go alone lest I be recognized by someone I know. The best thing you can do to imagine by first a is to imagine a white-ish/ tipped gray coat. A fluffy, white tail, with a light red tipped on the backside and front of each ear, and black glasses on my piercing blue eyes.

On to me! I'm a very reserved person, and I keep most of my feelings to myself. I have a lot of scars, on the body and on the heart. I'm 19 years old and I'm a guy, and gaming is really all I do. I play plenty of Diablo 3, WoW, and CoD. My favorite type of music is Drum And Bass (although my favorite artist is Lord Huron.. If you haven't ever listened to the music I would suggest "Lonesome Dreams") and my favorite books are definitely non-fiction. Fantasy books are my favorite, my favorite book has to be the "Inkheart" series by Cornelia Funke. I love comedy and horror movies. My favorite food is tacos! My birthday is in one month and I'll be 20 :). I work full time here in Jax, FL in a pet store. I'm definitely looking for new friends and hopefully one day, a mate that fits me well! Don't be afraid to say hi to me :3

Naming Characters/Fursonas

Furry Reddit - Thu 29 May 2014 - 08:11

So, I have a prototype-fursona that I've been trying to name, except I haven't been able to come up with anything that fits.

Does anyone have any tips for coming up with names for fursonas/characters?

How Do I Make Friends?

We discuss the positives and negatives, and whether it counts as a right, in this slightly more political episode of WagzTail.
