I work for a k-12 school system, and we're looking for some alternative programs to just Photoshop for the art students. I watch quite a few streams on here and have noticed that there are a lot of different programs that people use. And of course, I remember the names of none of those programs.
 

So, what do you guys use? Free Opensource, and cross-platform are a bonus, but not a requirement. We have access to Linux, OSX, and Windows here, and the art teachers have a small budget they can use for software purchases.

No, I'm not asking where you got yours. But more of how have you came up with your design and basically thought "Well I have this in mind, and now I'm going to use it".

I can not come up with anything, while I do know what spices (Fox, Dog or Raccoon) I have absolutely NO idea what the colors and the design is going to look like. At first I was like "I'll come up with it, give it time", but no. I always end up with a generic design or a design that looks quite like someone else. (And I don't want to 'steal' someones design, its not nice)

So yeah; how did you get your fursona's design? Where have you gotten your inspiration from?

Hey! I'm that guy who streams way too much. You may have stopped by a few times. I've met a ton of really cool people, and while I've never really been that huge of a furry, I do relate a lot to the community, and it was the ONLY community where I felt my art was not only appreciated, but my learning experiences are actively encouraged.

I want to give back, because even though I've only been drawing for four months (I started May 27th, 2015!), I feel like the generosity and kindness shown to me was completely overwhelming, and I feel guilty to not return it in some way.

So, my idea involves having myself and other artists stream this weekend, and take either request/commissions entirely for donations, or to do what I want to do, where I get people to pledge for every hour that I stream!

Boring stuff about me, and why I want do this, and what I want to donate to.

One of the reasons I find this community very relatable is the vast amount of people, both young and old, whom have various mental health issues. I myself have lived with (and coped rather well thankfully) depression, and still do for my entire conscious life. More recently, I started having mild manic episodes-- they were a gift! It was the first time I ever felt happy, and felt motivated to do the things I always wished to do, but never seemed to care enough! I WAS ABLE TO DRAW! AND I STUCK WITH IT! It's my life's passion now. I was lucky, though. My mania takes me to the edge of insanity-- literally. Hypomania just makes you feel really good, euphoric. But it can devolve into Hypermania, which causes hypersexuality, delusions of grandeur, reckless and dangerous activities. The worst part is after hypo/hypermania, you almost always fall into a severe physical depression.

Depression is a terrible disease, as is any other mental illness. A lot of people suffer from it, and may not even know about it. It's also incredibly stigmatized, and even for someone like me, who has had depression, it's hard for me to actually understand and empathize with other depressed people.

I want people to seek the help they need, and for others to learn more about these types of illnesses and understand that they are physical illnesses that are the result of various imbalances of neurotransmitters, or damaged brain tissue, or anything. Most of them generally can't be cured at all, only managed. Without help, medication in some cases, therapy, and support of friends and family, the risks are deadly and destructive.

It's also a really cool way for newer artists to get some exposure, meet new people (I love this one!), and otherwise give back to the community!

The game plan

I want to get any artists here who are capable of streaming this weekend starting maybe friday night to sunday night (you can stream for however long you want on whatever day in between, but I'd prefer to schedule people and have a list on a Reddit thread where people can see who's taking requests, who's online, etc.

I need a few things:

• I need someone to coordinate who's online, update the reddit thread, and keep tabs on if people are streaming or not streaming. I will try and do this myself but I'd love to have someone reliable and well known do this if I don't personally know you.
• I need to figure out what would be a good charity or institution to donate to, and how we would coordinate donations.
• We need a platform, or some way of keeping track of donations. I don't mind doing my own through paypal if there's a way I can make the record public (so people know I'm not stealing!) I'm sure there's a website that acts as a third party where artists could check if their donation was made so they can do commissions, or whatever. But I have no idea!
• Would we donate as individuals, or as /r/furry, or the furry community as a whole or what? I need suggestions!
• Any additional ideas you may have!

Who can take part? (And other info)

I want other artists to be drawing too! I will personally be drawing and staying up literally as much as possible, and I will try and ask people for donations for every hour I stream for the weekend.

I don't have a set time yet, but I'm thinking maybe 7pm EST on Friday, and to end it on Sunday at 2am EST or something like that. I want multiple streamers from every time zone possible, and for streamers to COMMIT TO THE SCHEDULE THEY SIGN UP FOR!

If you are interested, please let me know. I need help organizing this. I really want to do this, but I have no idea how.

As a side note, even if people don't donate or pledge for me, I will be donating $50.00 to the charity we decide on.

PS: Moderators of /r/furry, if this needs some kind of approval or if an endorsement or sticky would be possible, I'd love to go over the possibility! Either way, whatever helps the most!

Artists who may stream:

Hello r/furry,

I am sorry if this is not the right place for this question but I couldn't really think of a better sub for it.

I have always felt a bit of a furry but I really never cared for the full suit. The heat plus the mask would make me very uncomfortable. I would be wearing it a lot at EDM shows, festivals or at home with the SO, all of which i would die of heat exhaustion before I could enjoy it.

I was hoping you could help me out with some inspiration and ideas for a wolf costume. My idea starts with a few small pieces I am currently working on.

• Spirit Hood, this is an example

• lower half mask, again just an example as I am in the process of making my own.

• And a standard tail

What else can I add to give it a wolf like look without adding layers and layers of fur?

Does anyone have examples of previous costumes they have seen and liked that are similar to this idea?

Thanks everyone!

That doesn't chime well... Whatever...

Anyways, hi, I play Wildstar, been playing for some time before it became free so I have a little bit of experience with the game pre F2P, but speaking of the F2P, any of you fancy coming to play some Wildstar on the EU servers, (Probably Jabbit (PvE), maybe the PvP one?) probably on the Dominion side (I mean, Chua's and Draken's plz, Exile got nothing on the Dominion)

So yeah, this would mean preferably creating a new character but if you are up for it please leave your character names below so I could add you in the game ;v;
