So I recently got my first ever paid commission done. I actually commission 3 pictures at around the same time from 3 different artists (2 i've posted here). The first 2 commissions I got done accepted all the money up front, had preliminary sketches done within a few days and the final colored product in about a week.

The 3rd commission was a nightmare. They accepted all the money up front. I told them the same thing I told the other artists "Take your time, no rush". They then took weeks before they even started my sketching (all the while insisting I come watch their livestream to see the "doodles" they were doing, they had no other commissions on their list). They finally said they don't want to do my requested idea and they want to do something of their own style and choosing. Becoming pretty desperate, I accepted this. They then took ANOTHER week to even get a sketch done all the while starting more and more "doodles". They complained constantly about how hard my character was to draw and kept dropping phrases such as "I prefer canines" and "I don't think i'll do another pic like this". More weeks passed after the sketch, I sent multiple notes about an ETA and got "i'll get on it right away" back over and over. They finally finished the coloring and sent me the FA resize and original. Overall I wasn't happy with the picture (it wasn't what I paid for!) but I accepted it, thanked them and swore to myself to never commission them again.

I've actually contacted the 2nd artist to get the commission I wanted done by them and they've accepted and said "no problem". I'm confident i'll get exactly what I ask for as the 2nd artist handled my first picture very professionally and without a fuss. Anyway, back to the topic. Is there any way I can avoid another commish-tastrophy? Any telltale signs "difficult" artists have I should be aware of? I normally have a quick flick through their journals and posts before I ask and the 3rd artist seemed fine at the time.

Author: Fred Australia today is not what it used to be. Civilization has settled into the southeast of the country, roughly from Adelaide to Sydney. Imported animals like sheep, foxes, and rabbits have replaced the older native animals. Kangaroos and wallabies are tolerated as “cute”, but other native animals have been relegated to zoos where [...]

RATS! will be based on the third-edition d20 [...]

I'm just posting this out of curiosity, because I like statistics and this is my idea of fun. ^^;

Ctrl+F your fursona species below and upvote it! If it's not there, submit it as a comment! At the end we should end up with a list of the most popular species ordered by upvotes in descending order.

If you have a subspecies, put that as a comment on the relevant species! :)

One vote per user and no downvotes on other species! I'm looking forward to seeing the results!

(bold text edited in after multiple posts of the same species x3)

Its by some 80's revival band called the cold beating hearts or something like that. Girl gets invited to a furry party in a garage. Need to show my uncle who still lives in the 80's and make him WTF.

I've heard about it ever since I joined the fandom but I have no idea what it is, how it works... Is it a game? A social network? :/

Author: crossaffliction In my review of fluffy’s Unity Book 1: Ascent, I mentioned in the first line that I was dubious about furry science fiction. I gave that book a positive review, despite it being furry science fiction, because it was good science fiction. In concluding my opinion piece on furry criticism, I added as [...]

how do I describe what a "furry" is? My friends ask me and I don't know how to describe being a furry.
