Anyone have skills for hire to help me run a furry web store?

Furry Reddit - Thu 30 Jan 2014 - 07:34

Hi! I have some plans in progress to develop furry themed products with a few good partners. Professional minded and for general audiences, material goods. More specific details available in private. :)

There are several small businesses already serving furry customers in this niche. I would not aim to compete with them, but offer some different content that seems underrepresented in my opinion.

I already run a successful business in this area that is not furry themed. (I'm a furry fan though, and love fursuiting.)

I'm so busy with that, i would rather hire help to start and maintain a web store. I also have some interest in offering bitcoin plus standard purchase. I would rather find a partner who's into this stuff than just a random applicant. Furry means it's niche and not likely to be a huge thing, but i'm not intending to offer less than worth your time.

Please message me with one brief paragraph and tell me about your interest. I will only reply if it seems to have specific potential, so keep it casual and low expectations. Thanks :)

What’s your preference of style? This week we discuss variations in styles artists use for their work and comment on the emotional differences they may evoke. As it turns out, several of us like the more toony side of things, although at least one is quite fond of realism in artwork.

Some of the artists mentioned this week include:

Orlando Fox

RNorthex

Sandra and Woo

Fursday - Links - Thu 30 Jan 2014 - 04:00
Screen Shot 2014-01-30 at 1.40.32 AM.jpg

The tales of a girl and her pet raccoon (that can speak).

In their words

Sandra and Woo is a comedy comic strip featuring the 12-year-old girl Sandra North and her mischievous pet raccoon Woo. While most strips are just supposed to be funny or tell an exciting story, some also deal with more serious topics. We also want to show what growing up means for Sandra and her best friends in middle school, Cloud and Larisa. Another regular feature of the comic are Woo’s trips to the forest to meet his furry friends Shadow (a fox) and Sid (a squirrel) and his love interest Lily.

FWA 2014 League of Legends Tournament Details

Gaming Furever - Furry Game News - Thu 30 Jan 2014 - 02:34

If you're attending Furry Weekend Atlanta this year, and you're a League of Legends player, you may be interested to know about the upcoming tournament. Here are the official details:

This will be a 5v5 amateur tournament just like last year with a few changes to try and smooth things out and allow people to have more fun. We will do double elimination round robin this year so that a spot of bad luck doesn't doom a team and everyone gets to play a wider range of players. We will be starting the tournament off at 1:00 p.m. on Friday and can continue on to Saturday and Sunday if necessary. Sign ups will begin on Wednesday when the VGR room officially opens and end one hour before the start of the Tournament.

FAQ

Q: Is there an entrance fee to play in the tournament?

A: No, there is no fee to enter the tournament beyond the normal con registration.

Q: Can I bring my laptop or my own peripherals?

A: While we have very nice equipment of our own, we understand some players just feel more comfortable with their own set up and do not mind allowing you to use your own things, so long as it can be swapped out or set up in a timely manner.

Q: One of my friends cannot make it to the con, can he play from home?

A: As much as we'd like for your friend to be able to participate, we must limit players to attendees of the con.

Furry fandom can benefit from adopting Bitcoin more than any other community!

Furry Reddit - Thu 30 Jan 2014 - 02:26

There is apparently a crap-ton of misunderstanding and misconception (along with general idiocy) with regards to bitcoin among the furry community. Which is really f'in sad, considering just how much this currency can help the fandom. Specifically:

  • No restrictions on payments (pay for any kind of porn to anyone in the world)
  • Extremely low fees (0 to 10 cents per transaction regardless of how much you send)
  • Can send microtransactions, such as just a few pennies per payment.
  • No need to set up any bank accounts or create button links like you do with PayPal. Just install an app, or sign up on blockchain.info or Coinbase.com to get a bitcoin address (a string of text) and you're done.
  • Can be used internationally, especially for furs that travel to foreign conventions.

To receive a bitcoin payment, all you have to do is copy/paste text, such as 1Rassahgt3XSxKVJ62oSrQJxtH3wk4MKX. That's it. What I think would be really awesome (or at least useful) is to include this bitcoin address text in the description field under every picture artists submit. If people like the art, they can send a few cents as a donation or a thanks. Even better, you can create different bitcoin addresses for every pic you post, and see which ones are liked most just based on the amount of donations it gets.

As for usability, you can easily convert bitcoins to dollars trough Coinbase (in US) or many other exchanges, for at most a 1% fee, or use bitcoin to pay for things directly through a ton of available services, which let you shop on Amazon (with 6% discount for using bitcoin), Target (3% discount), or a ton of other places.

I want 2014 to be the year the furry community finally adopts Bitcoin, and would appreciate any help with achieving that goal, and I will personally volunteer my time to help anyone with getting set up, as well as be happy to answer any questions about it. I am even considering renting advertising space on furaffinity, and maybe running an information table at conventions. I also want to finally dispel all the rumors, misconceptions, and stupid claims about it that seem to persist despite tons of evidence contradicting them.

P.S. Regarding myself, I have a background in IT and have a Master's in international finance and economics (from Robert H. Smith School of Business, which uses Harvard University curriculum/materials). I currently work as a Senior Financial analyst for the State of MD, as well as a director of a bitcoin-based charity, through which I have personally already sent out thousands of dollars (over $40k in the last 2 months), including to animal rescue type charities. I will also be sending out a $1,000 donation to Toonseum.org in Pittsburgh within a week. I am also a bitcoin early adopter, know everything there is to know about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies (which I learned about wile being a SecondLife early adopter back in 2003), and live entirely off bitcoin, so if I can do it, there is definitely something bitcoin can be used for.
