Furry Worries Thread - Week Two

Furry Reddit - Sat 26 Dec 2015 - 14:21

Hello everyone! Last week's thread turned out rather well, and so I intend to make this a weekly occurrence as long as others continue to be helped! I would like to thank everyone who decided to open up to the community last week, as well as those who gave their time to assist the furs who were feeling down.

Additionally, if anyone has any ideas on how this thread could be improved upon, please do not hesitate to send me a PM! I would love to make this the best place it can be.

This is a thread dedicated to helping other furries who may be experiencing problems and are looking for somebody to talk to.

Users have sometimes stated that it is difficult to express their sorrows or misfortunes on this sub because they do not want to feel burdensome or unwelcome in what is normally a very happy-go-lucky environment. And so, this thread is to encourage furs to open up with their issues and to seek help from others.

If grief has been on your mind or something has been bothering you as of late, big or small, please leave a comment for myself and others to see if we can be of any help, or at least lend a sympathetic ear. Alternatively, if you feel pretty nice about yourself today, don't be afraid to browse any existing comments and see if you can make somebody's day a little better. Maybe you have experience with what that person might be dealing with. Or perhaps you just want to let them know that they have a person to talk to.

However, here are the principles from last week that should be considered:

  • I am aware that unfortunately, misfortune does not have a curfew. This thread is not in any way meant to contain negative emotion on the sub, but is meant to be a convenient place for others to open up and find somebody to talk to. If you experience strife at any other time during the week, do not feel like you must wait until Saturday to state it. Please feel free to make your own post.

  • This thread is not meant to replace professional help. If you feel that you could have depression or any other similar psychological condition, you are still invited to post, but it is highly recommended that you seek a form of professional help as well.

  • Suffering is not a competition. Do not feel like your issues are too slight, or insignificant to post. You are invited to express your problems no matter their scale. Your sadness is just as valid as any others.

  • Last but certainly not least, if you are responding to a comment do your best to be as thorough and insightful as possible. Do not just comment and forget about the other person afterward. While little pick-me-ups can help, do your best to be there for the other person. Encourage discussion and do not be afraid to have more in depth conversations. The comment section is always fine, but if either of you feel that you must talk in a more private setting, do not be afraid to use PM or Skype.

Thank you and I hope you all had a good holiday season.

Looking to finally commission a refsheet.

Furry Reddit - Sat 26 Dec 2015 - 13:55

Does anyone know a good refsheet artist that isn't afraid to be anatomically correct (nsfw), would work with me to get it right/be creative and not just ask for exactly what I want, and isn't super stylized in their own way? Thanks, fuzzies.

Tablet Recommendation?

Furry Reddit - Sat 26 Dec 2015 - 13:54

I'm looking to buy a new tablet, the Wacom I have is ancient and it has no sensitivity or stabilization, I'm not sure it ever did, it was very basic. It worked well for what I needed it for for ages, but not anymore. I can't complain though, it's lasted 10 years.

I don't necessarily need the least expensive tablet in the world, it's just mean I could get it sooner which isn't necessarily better, but this old tablet is driving me nuts.

I need something that's at least 10-12 inches in long and maybe 8 inches wide in size I think, the one I have now is about 8 x 8 and it's wide enough but not long enough. That's just a minimum.

I would possibly like one with a display screen. I know that jacks up the price and size but I think it might work better for me since I'm used to sketching everything I do traditionally and then scanning and using the tablet to finish, it'd be nice to cut out the traditional step which I don't think I could do with a screenless tablet with all the practice in the world.

Again money isn't really a thing, but suggesting for good tablets that are about the size I'm looking for, screenless and not that are at a lower price range would be best. I only say that because I don't want people suggesting the most expensive tablets out there. I draw art as a hobby I'm not a pro.

EDIT: If you could list a specific model you know that I could look up to make it easier, that'd be great. right now I'm having trouble even finding how to find tablets with display screens that are for art and like, iPads ~_~.

An introduction of sorts

Furry Reddit - Sat 26 Dec 2015 - 05:06

So after encountering an incredibly frustrating night of CS GO I decided to blow off steam on reddit and found myself browsing this sub for the umpteenth time in the past few weeks so decided it was only fair to provide some introduction. I've been a casual member of the fandom for going on around 4 years now and started browsing this sub about a month ago. Short story is you guys rock and I keep coming back :D

Don't have much interesting background info around my furry side though - my fursona is a red-headed bird of indeterminable species since I'm lazy and haven't put the time into specifying that... so we'll figure that out later.

Merry Late Christmas and Happy Holidays!

One Day A Lonely Bear…

In-Fur-Nation - Sat 26 Dec 2015 - 02:59

[We hope you all had a Merry Christmas — and have a safe New Year!]

Bear Story is a short CGI animated film by Gabriel Osorio at Punkrobot Studios in 2014. Since then it has won over 50 international awards in the animation festival circuit. According to an article at The Wrap, the film “…is an ingenious, dazzling piece of 3D animation, the sad story of a lonesome bear who builds an elaborate mechanical diorama in an attempt to remember (and perhaps recover) the life he used to live with his wife and son, before he was ripped from his home and sent to a circus. But audiences in Osorio’s native Chile immediately know that it’s more than that — it’s also an allegory for the way families were torn apart during the murderous Pinochet regime in Chile in the 1970s.” Bear Story has been short-listed for an Academy Award for 2015. You can see a short making-of film and a trailer for it over at the Punkrobot web page.

Having some troubles finding artist's doing commissions.

Furry Reddit - Fri 25 Dec 2015 - 22:20

As the title says, having trouble finding artists doing commissions.

I basically want to get a character done but need an artist able to work with me since I can only really offer some descriptions and various pictures as references.

So what i'm asking is, anyone an artist/know of any artists that are capable and willing to do this for about $35 USD?

Thanks all!

You can never have too many fur-riends.

Furry Reddit - Fri 25 Dec 2015 - 20:52

Hello, my fellow furries! Happy Holidays! I would love nothing more than to make more furry friends. I'm always up for a good conversation. Be my fur-riend! I primarily communicate with furries through kik. Stay cute everyone!

Also, I live in Houston and will attend Furry Fiesta in March.
