King Dedede Rejoins the Brawl!

Gaming Furever - Furry Game News - Sat 11 Jan 2014 - 01:00
King Dedede Rejoins the Brawl!

A new update to the official Super Smash Bros. website has revealed that King Dedede will make a return appearance in Super Smash Bros for Wii U and 3DS. He has been given his own character page with 10 screenshots featuring him, 9 from Wii U and one from 3DS.

Admittedly I really didn't think Dedede would be one of the returning characters but I suppose he'll be a good alternative for people who like playing as heavier characters but don't like the slow movement of Bowser or Ganondorf [Ganondorf yet to be confirmed]. I do hope though that his sucking move is given a little more usefulness, maybe let him chew or something to do a little damage rather than just hold and throw people.

So are you happy to see King Dedede return to Smash Bros? Who is your favourite so far, or have they yet to be announced? Let us know, join the discussion below!

Furrys Love 5 Guys!

Do any of you guys ever feel ashamed to be a furry?

Furry Reddit - Sat 11 Jan 2014 - 00:37

THIS IS NOT A HATE POST THIS IS NOT A HATE POST THIS IS NOT A HATE POST

Im a furry and I've been one for 4-5 years now. But it is one of my most deeply harbored secrets. No one in real life knows it, I'm even more comfortable admitting im gay than i am admitting it. It seems all my friends bastardize and hate furries regardless if they're attracted to yiff or not.

What Im asking is that if any of you have ever experienced this feeling before. And if so, what advice might you have for dealing with it? I really like being a furry, but I feel really guilty about it at times too.

EDIT #1: Thank you guys so much for all of the love and support, as well as your own personal stories. Hearing all of this is making me a lot more confident in myself and my furry side, and I love hearing them, keep em coming!

EDIT #2: After giving it some thought and reading all of the supportive responses from everyone, I've decided Im going to stay a furry and be more confident with it! I think i may remake my fursona too! (Its been a while)

We've almost hit 10k subscribers...

Furry Reddit - Fri 10 Jan 2014 - 23:59

Well somewhere between 1 and 10k subscribers. You never know how many people are subbed with alt accounts. Anyway, I have something big planned for when we hit that 10k milestone. It will absolutely knock the socks off you guys. Watch out /r/yiff, we're very slowly (emphasis on slowly) gaining on you.

And we hit 10k.

What type of fursuiting videos would you like to see?

Furry Reddit - Fri 10 Jan 2014 - 23:28

Aside from dancing, unboxing, and educational stuff.

I've been looking on youtube for fursuit videos and that seems to be all there is. Can you link me to fursuit vids that aren't dancing, educational, or unboxing?

And are there any videos you'd like to see? I was thinking just maybe some really simple videos where it's just a fursuit doing some mundane everyday activity. That'd be interesting to see. What about you?

Friends of /r/furry, how did you "stumble upon/find/etc." the furry fandom?

Furry Reddit - Fri 10 Jan 2014 - 21:30

For me, I have a buddy who is big into it, and he introduced me to it. Pretty boring, I know.

Contribution guidelines to ease Flayrah’s editing bottleneck

Furry News Network - Fri 10 Jan 2014 - 20:39
Author: GreenReaper Stories go through several editing steps before publication on Flayrah. Image thumbnailing, layout, copyediting, linking, fact-checking, tagging – these take over half an hour for all but the most trivial stories, and that’s assuming no substantive editing is required.

When Fox Lost Her Heart

In-Fur-Nation - Fri 10 Jan 2014 - 20:03

New in hardcover this month from Toon Books is a full-color graphic story for younger readers called simply Hearts — written and illustrated by Thereza Rowe.  “When Penelope the Fox drops her heart into the sea, she’s swept off on a perilous journey, dodging sharks and royal cat-guards until a cartwheeling chicken leads her to the land of lost things.” It’s available at Amazon, or you can visit Thereza’s web site to see more of her modernistic anthro designs.

Season 2 launch update

Claws & Convo - Fri 10 Jan 2014 - 19:55
Greetings! Now that the holidays are over, we can get down to business. Dante is currently in the process of moving in to a new abode, so he's busy getting settled. In the mean time, I've been busy testing the new software and stream provider. Tests so far has shown positive results, and the new set up is going to give us far more flexibility then UStream ever did, and has proven much more reliable.

The only downside is that episodes will have to be manually edited and uploaded to YouTube, so I'm also testing new editing software to help out with that aspect. Hardware wise, my desktop is performing well. Thanks to OBS, we're now able to add as many cameras as we fucking want... I just need to add more USBs to my machine, which should be fairly cheap to do. I found out that OBS can do Chroma key (green/blue screen stuff), which is pretty neat. We'll be making good use of that once we can get something green to hang on the wall.

Furstre.am has an integrated chat, but I'm still going to stress using the Anthrochat IRC channel since it's easier to access and we've got more control of it. The format is going to be streamlined slightly to work better with the software, and we'll be adding a bit more interesting stuff while cutting down on the less interesting stuff. The audio-only stream will be up for bandwidth challenged. Also, my fursuit will be done around the end of July so yeah. Shout out to Darkpaw.

Want to help out? Submit artwork, news, topics, suggestions, art, or your own show segment* to strikepaw.studios@gmail.com. As always, donations can be made to thecheguar@gmail.com via paypal.

*segments will need to be kept under 15min with some exceptions, and remain relatively SFW. I recommend using Google Drive and emailing a link.

Boring technical stuff below the cut.

We are currently looking for another co-host, as well as an assistant producer in the Ottumwa/Bloomfield aria. The assistant producer will help with post-production, preparing and uploading episodes to YouTube, monitoring the chat/email, and helping to keep this site up to date.


Here's some of the studio (hardware) improvements I'm looking at in the short term:

  • Webcam #2
  • USB 3.0 card
  • 10-USB 2.0 thing
  • New  mic cables! (current cables are going bad)

I'd also like to work out some sort of podcast style hosting for archiving the show in both video and audio-only formats, though it may not be in our budget.

Longer term, as in a year or more:

  • Second VGA card
  • Additional 20" Monitor
  • Small HDMI TV for main feed monitoring
  • Midi Controls*
  • HD Camcorder
*I know little about Midi controls, and may need help writing scripts for them.

 Longest term (2+ years), I'd like to have a secondary studio computer to handle auxiliary A/V stuff, and possibly a couple cheap netbooks so the guys can read news and interact with chat without blocking the camera.
