High school artist and fursuit builder Ludicrousy is featured in an interview with the Orange County Register, in which she describes her move to Orange County High School of the Arts, and the discovery of her passion for costuming:

… as I started to explore my art work, I said ‘You know, I can do a lot more here than just be someone who goes to college.’ [...] I felt like I found what I’m supposed to do with my life.

Watch: Ludicrousy’s red wolf character Kawl entertains students and supports the LGBT Make It Better Project.

Let Your FurFlag Fly in New City of Heroes Pack

Weasel Wordsmith - Mon 14 Feb 2011 - 16:18

After the popularity of the animal based designs in Sony’s new MMO, DC Universe Online, it’s not surprising to find that NCSoft is also letting gamers explore their furry side with the new City of Heroes Animal Pack available February 23.

The pack includes 60 mix-and-match costume pieces, covering Feline, Avian, Minotaur, and Wolf designs. Based on screens and art, the felines and avians include multiple species.

New emotes allow you to not only hiss, but sniff at other players. We don’t suppose “scritch” or “yiff” are included as actions.

There are other new features like additional auras and a Beast Run Travel Power.

And did we mention a Three Wolf Howl t-shirt featuring some buff and busty anthro wolves? Yeah, your furry superhero can pretend to wear shirts ironically while secretly loving them.

The City of Heroes Animal Pack will be available from the NCSoft Story for £5.99 or EUR 8.99.

Counterfeit Lugaru has been removed from the App Store

Furry News Network - Mon 14 Feb 2011 - 10:32

Noted on the Wolfire.com Blog -

By Jeffrey Rosen, Wolfire.com on February 10th, 2011

After selling for over a week and reaching #60 on the Mac games chart, the counterfeit Lugaru is no longer on the Mac App Store.

Image credit Wolfire.com

We’re not sure who took it down, or what will happen to the customers who were tricked into buying the fake copy, or the money they paid for it. We still haven’t heard anything from Apple.

We don’t think that the customers should be punished for buying the fake version — they probably just assumed that all the games in the App Store are legitimate. We would have assumed the same thing until last week! If you accidentally purchased the fake Lugaru, you can forward your receipt to contact@wolfire.com and we will give you an authentic version of Lugaru HD, as well as a bonus Steam key for your trouble.

WE3 Return. Run!

In-Fur-Nation - Sun 13 Feb 2011 - 02:46

WE3 was a well-known and well-received 3-issue comic book miniseries written by Grant Morrison (Animal Man) and illustrated by Frank Quitely (New X-Men). This full-color comic was first published by DC Comics’ Vertigo imprint in 2004, and was first gathered together as a trade paperback graphic novel in 2005. Now, the graphic novel version returns, again published by Vertigo. This time it’s a brand-new hardcover edition, featuring new story pages by the creators. It’s scheduled for release this coming June 15th. The story of WE3 follows three stray animals — a dog, a cat, and a rabbit — who are captured by a secret military organization and transformed into cybernetic weapon-animals. Now they have limited speech, they are covered in body-armor, and they are armed to the teeth with deadly weapons. When they learn they are to be decommissioned, they make a break for freedom — pursued not only by the military, but by other cybernetic animals. Interestingly, the WE3 entry on Wikipedia mentions that in 2006 WE3 was optioned for development as a CGI film by New Line Cinema. Then came the word (in late 2008) that New Line was no longer involved in the project, but that John Stevenson (co-director of Kung Fu Panda) was now attached to the film as director.

Early atrocity tourism website Portal of Evil closes

Furry News Network - Sat 12 Feb 2011 - 21:54

Author: crossaffliction

Portal of Evil (PoE) closed down last week after over a decade of “atrocity tourism”.

The site – founded in late 1999 by Cleveland, Ohio-based duo K. Thor Jensen and Chet Faliszek – was a directory of “weird, unusual and evil” websites, each discussed and mocked in turn by PoE forum members. Numerous furry sites were featured, including the website of 2 the Ranting Gryphon (who devoted a rant to PoE), Cub Central, and webcomics such as Sabrina Online.
