Well, at least now I know 100% for certain that @Anonymous-Frog is a high functioning sociopath. Fucking disgusting. Horrible, horrible person, until recently badly disguised as a sarcastic intellectual. Ehhhh. Yeah. Moving on indeed. Let's move on, now that I know Anonymous-Frog is just another one of those pathetic know-alls with no empathy. :(

For the record, when I opened up for the furry community, I found more easy going and acceptive friends, than in any other group, fandom, club etc. You know, people with a lot of passion for comics and animation and appreciation of creating entertainment over the course of many different eras. Whether it's SFW or NSFW, I could just chime in and enjoy the furry artists' fun quirky content, with that special emotional touch only anthropomorphic animal characters can really awaken. That's just my personal experience. And maybe I just got lucky enough not to come across any super toxic folks. But the whole idiotic stigma against furries is vastly fucking exaggerated, which leads to ad hominem attacks and amplification of hatred. Those who buy the furry hate are very narrow minded from what I can tell. A bit of snobbery and gatekeeping is invovled too. They don't realize the furry community, despite its common trait of "liking anthropomorphic animal characters" is really really diverse. At first I thought I didn't quite fit in, cause I was focusing on the side of the community/fandom that wasn't for me. But then I dug deeper, and found some artists who not only did very nice drawings, but also were very fun to talk to.

Furaffinity is a great platform actually, because of its razorsharp search engine, and anti-AI rules. They allow porn art, yeah, but it can be filtered out, just like on NG. Plus, with that advanced search engine you can exclude/include any keyword you want to find hidden gems that suit your tastes best.

I've had some negative experiences and have furry friends who've had negative experiences, but you are right that people's dislike can get unfair.

I'm the sociopath with no empathy

Well admitting is one step. The next would be to show some empathy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Negative experiences happen everywhere. And there is no special exclusive rule for the furry community.

Eh I bet you people have said worse stuff about dragoneer after his death

Doesn’t make it okay, I’m critical of FurAffinity and the fandom and I can still be saddened by what happened

Yeah you right

Just gonna step in here to this largely resolved issue and say @anonymous-frog stop being an edgelord troll and commenting inflammatory shit on people discussing a person who died. In addition to that, @Czyszy stop feeding the edgelord troll with responses like that, ignoring them is always more effective.

This is a warning for both of you to chill on this sort of behavior, next time it pops up bans will be on the table.

Thank you, please resume regular lounge activities.

Y she such a bad bitch tho 😫😫😫

Started playing Dredge for the first time last month, and I’m already at the halfway point. Been having a blast with it, I’m a total sucker for ocean horror and it has some cool Lovecraftin stuff thrown in as well. Plus the art is really nice! I really gotta make some fanart once I’m done with the main story. Maybe I’ll do a style study of the game’s art style once I have some free time as well.

I just had the Noclip documentary on in the background for this one, looked really neat the few times I glanced over, definitely something I'll be checking out in the future.

Art style looked very Monkey Island X Supergiant Games

Oh sweet! Didn’t know a documentary was made for this game that’s pretty awesome. I’ll definitely have to check it out in my free time.

And yeah I think you hit it right on the head with the art style, could just be my own bias speaking but I am getting a lil bit of some Mike mignola vibes as well. Mainly due to how funky the shapes are for some of the characters even if it doesn’t have the iconic way he does lines and shadows.

Im honestly excited to finish the game and do some studies on its art style. I really could use it as a small opportunity to experiment with my style a bit more.

Isn't there some program to make a game or some interactive widget of sorts for the games portal of a comic book/graphic novel? Rather than posting it page by page on the art portal, just make it one game instead?

any of you guys ever flipped a table in artistic disapproval?

The closest thing I can think of, is Twine maybe?

Look here in the Newgrounds resources

I flipped my sofa but had to go to hospital due to a pulled muscle, does that count?

I have thought about it multiple times, but I never do it. Simply because I have way too much shit on my art desk, and I rather not spend my time picking everything up.

I believe you’re thinking of Bando’s Comic Wizard

ng collabs tbh havent been that interesting for me

I don't know, I've always wanted to join a collab, but I get nerves talking to people.

the creature collab honestly is a bit too complicated

you should've warmed up on the armchair first

Bluegrounds returns!

We haven't had a color change in a while it feels like.

Wait that happened before?

Yup! We've had a lot of different colors before . It used to happen more frequently, to the point where people were asking for the normal orange to return.

now after that we might need to change it to pink to make it slaygrounds

Suggestion: I don’t know who’s in charge of writing the rules, but I think it’s been enough incidents that we should really put it in writing:

“No art request threads unless you have a specific twist on the concept, a need to ask for permission (like if the results are going on a commission sheet), or any other reason to not just use the OC Plaza.”
