currently I'm still using Twitter, but I'm seeing a lot of people using Weasyl. If you move there, I would be happy to verify your account for you.

I actually still have a Weasly account, but I thought the site was dead?
Or has that changed now with the announcement of 2.7?

I don't like to use multiple sites as a replacement for FA. My name on Weasly is RukiFox

Twitter is not an option for a galaria

Twitter is getting bold in its hate speech these days, I now get front page tag suggestions that would be hate crimes in my (and Ruki's) country. (It's not contextual, all I do is post and comment on furry art)

is weasly still well frequented?

not, really? statistically it has the least active userbase of all the major current sites, even sofurry is more active

T____T while she looks so good ...
I always get the creeps when the interface looks like Win 8 with all these app buttons.

I still check it daily, loads of folks posting there! It got a ton more folks using it since the whole mess here.

Can you load many images at once into a galary with postybrid? that would take forever for me. @.@

I'm uncertain, unfortunately. I'm user-end mostly there, with only limited uploads of my photography every so often.

Inkbunny is the obvious one, I've also seen itaku.ee, it's almost empty but there are no obvious systemic issues with it.

i'm on IB too, but it feels a little cringy to think of this site as your main site. Anyway, I would want to link the site less to my parents. Unless you automatically have a hide list with cub arts for the frontpage :(

We can have either a website that doesn't censor harmless genres or a website that doesn't allow horrible content, because these two are contradictions. (You draw ferals - a no-no for some furries too!) From personal experience, if your Inkbunny blacklist is well-written, you will never see any of the stuff you don't want to see.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that at all.
The bad thing is that I now as an example, no one would dare me to link this page, because I have drawn a line for me, no more Cubs and no Ferals with people to draw to stay away from reality.

And the AI setting on IB I actually also do not like :(

But sure, it's hard to find something that welcomes everyone and doesn't go against anyone's grain.

Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

I just went to Telegram with a channel for posting and attached group for chat, I am too tired to re-upload to a new site

I can understand that. I don't like to have Telegram as a galary, it's just a chat program. Similar to Twitter good for communication but not very good for finding and showing pictures :(

I get that, especially for an artist, I'm just a commissioner, and no longer found much value in showing stuff off, it's all there for some friends and hold raffles and YCHs

ink bunny is an obvious one, i also found a site called Itaku which is still in its infancy but is geared towards artists

i'm on IB too, but it feels a little cringy to think of this site as your main site. Anyway, I would want to link the site less to my parents. Unless you automatically have a hide list with cub arts for the frontpage :(

AH yeah, IB is one site I would def not be sharing about to a family member, either. If there's a site you want to like, link to Family I'd look at Itaku, Weasyl, or have your own personal Gallery site for sharing purposes.

agreed, you should look into that itaku site I mentioned

i should probably take a look at that. It just seems so strange. the more unfamiliar a website is structured, the more uncomfortable i feel.

it seems to be very much just starting out, so perhaps community suggestions etc could help refine it. i just hope they allow uploads of writiting in the future so i can post my works there.

Boo I'm not even allowed to have my animated avatar there unless I support with Patreon.
And again you start from scratch ._.

damn that sucks
its a cute avatar too btw!

thank you ^^

Twitter ist eine grauenvolle Seite für Artwork, würde ich also wirklich nicht empfehlen, weil es einfach keine Gallerie-Funktion hat.

Inkbunny ist etabliert, aber... es ist inkbunny. Meiner Meinung nach ist es einfach etwas zu... offen was bestimmten content angeht.

Ich habe mich im Endeffekt für itaku entschieden. Ich finde, die Seite ist generell recht gut und hat so ziemlich alle features, die man für artwork braucht, aber die community ist noch recht klein. Wobei ich dann hier sagen muss: Das ist ja etwas, was tatsächlich die Nutzer ändern können. Je mehr Leute dorthin gehen, desto aktiver wird letztenendes auch die Seite.

Meine Gedanken auf jeden Fall!

Ja, ich bin auch etwas .... geschockt muss ich sagen o_O'
FA war halt ca 17 Jahre mein zu Hause .....

Why would your semi-anthro stuff not be allowed when feral is still fine (at least for now)? What's the explanation for that? If I had to guess, perhaps it has more to do with age than appearance. I remember this site becoming increasingly strict about that a few years ago.

I had sent some of my pictures to the admins of FA for checking. And my Pokemon stuff and the Halbanthro nsfw stuff have to go.
Possibly they will also ban Feral nsfw soon. I don't know.

It wouldn't surprise me, honestly. The angry keyboard warriors on Twitter love to use the "feral is bestiality" strawman as an excuse to throw shade at artists they want to get rid of, and Dragoneer almost always bends the knee to their outrage. He did the same thing with cub art a while back after those same people threw a tantrum over it. If he bans feral art next, who's to say the purity spiral will stop there? The whole site will come crashing down if consistent rules are thrown away in favor of appeasing people's personal tastes.

With that said, I'd still advise against deleting everything and leaving this website. As long as your stuff is still here, it's giving you more visibility. By giving up and leaving, you're giving the people pushing for these ridiculous rule changes exactly what they want, which is to scare all of us away and turn this place into their politically correct safe space. Personally, I'd prefer to keep my account up until this site either shuts down or the people running it ban me and force me to leave. Until then, it's better to go out fighting than quitting.

Yes, I'm just trying to delete the stuff that I've been banned from now and wait :(

I'm moving to Inkbunny. I will also make an account on Itaku, but I can't post my stories there because its support for text submissions is abysmal. If you're not a writer it should be fine though.

I see a lot of people praise InkBunny, i personally dont use the site much do to certain rules around content and their staffs decisions on such being a red flag for the next censor push but its what many swear by.

Itaku.ee is another one i see pushed recently, its a small startup right now but its decent enough for what it is and at least has features FA has refused to put in for a decade now (tag blacklist, proper gallery folders etc.) Being the change we all want to see i encourage using it, its like rumble to FA's youtube if that majes sense.

I see some people going to pixiv, but that platform is very restrictive on nsfw content so its not for everyone. Being hosted in japan can have its disadvantages sometimes.

Some people swear by SoFurry for some reason, virtually the same staff as here and their friends so i cant really advise that choice personally but to each their own.

E621 is always around, it being a booru site has many downsides like a lack of a real "followed artist" function but it still works as a gallery of all ones work. Mods aren't too heavy handed though community tagging can be iffy at the best of times.

Twitter exists i guess? Its not a gallery, or really even an art site, but it is there? It has a bad reputation going long back as being a toxicity echo chamber that has a lot of people avoid it like the plague. Elon has been slowly fixing it since he bought it, but most people (like me) remain skeptical it wont just 180 back to being worse then the toxic avengers refrigerator soon.

There is always starting a mastodon fork for a personal gallery, though at that point its likely to only be your invited individuals there because of how that functions. Same goes for discord honestly...

Lastly i guess is just... Continuing here but censor then link to an uncensored on e6 or the like? Not sure how staff will treat that though, i think thats how they got IvoryLagiacrus but im not privy to the full details on that one.

TL:DR itaku.ee is the best choice right now for all the burnedfur 2.5 victims, small but as the saying goes "if we build it they will come"

> tag blacklist

The problem FA has with tag blacklist is not code-related, it's that FA tags are completely useless.

> Continuing here but censor then link to an uncensored on e6 or the like?

Artists can make different versions for different sites, but not cross-link them. FA even supports dedicated links to other furry sites in artist profiles.

> "if we build it they will come"

More like "have a replacement ready for when the established website commits suicide", as has happened to Reddit, except all the replacements were found wanting. I discovered Mastodon that way though, so that was cool at least.

Yes I will see what I will do :(

That third one was moreso a comment on the size of the website at the moment and the idea that enough people going there will take their communities with them, but yeah its all around a good point. Never get complacent and put all your eggs in one basket is a good motto.

I have a hard time with conversions. Especially when the interface is different.
I think I really liked Weasky back then, but I don't know how many people are still there.
The other pages seem like, Nieschengallarien that you should not choose as the main page?

On e621 I do not upload anything. That amchen fans. I myself can write there nciht active with my Kommunity or follow other artists, do not see when they have uploaded something and ych's I can also forget there :(

I know the feeling, the UI changes take a while to get used to if one ever truly can. While ive only seen weasl once or twice its ui, especially the backend one, was a big plus. Not sure what happened to it, how big it is these days, why nobody seems to promote it anymore, etc. So i cant really comment much on if its a good option long term. Its a sad state of affairs that this happened to so many good artists.

As for e6, yeah, its inability to really form a community is its biggest downside. Its good for post backup in case of accidental deletion or the like and having quick access to anything there but fails everywhere else.

People suggest Inkbunny because it's the only one beside FA and twitter that is reliably popular (even though to a lesser extent).
What decisions made you think inkbunny is not safe?

Itaku is nice but it's new and a bit unusual concept of a crossbreed between twitter/tumblr and art gallery so i'm not sure if it gets popular enough.

Past rulings on images proving they do not support the freedom of artistic expression in several genre's (humans in general for instance) some Overly vague rules that are sometimes not enforced and sometimes are enforced heavier then others for seemingly no reason beyond the staffers mood that day. Bending over backwards for the same types of censors that ruined tumblr\paypal (and by extension here) against their primary userbase. Staff having a history of open political activism calling for peoples unpersoning on questionable claims (vic or ethan) and a generally slow layout that doesnt support some popular browsers/linux distros due to how it handles cookie usage. I personally do not trust the moment they become bigger they wont do the same as FA did given they already censor things they deem unworthy (nevermind ancient art of those exact things being common and accepted as art)

As for itaku, if people dont start using it then it doesnt get popular. Thats a catch 22, and a very common one in many smaller startups.

Well, human rule, as sad as it is for pokemon art, was there from the start, so that is not something i'd worry about. But i'll research into other things you mentioned, thanks.
I didn't know about layout problems, it worked great for me wherever i used it, currently i'm on manjaro with tor browser.

You're right about catch 22, but it's more than that. It has to have something to offer to attract people from FA and IB, and as proven by furry network just a different layout and less shit code is not enough. We'll see how it goes. I try to visit it, although i still default to inkbunny currently. It's like Inkbunny>Itaku>FA for me atm, with FA being so low now because of the disgust i feel when using it.

The most important date in furry community will be the one when FA bans ferals (which lets all agree is more than likely to happen). Then wherever ferals go will become a real competitor.

Inkbunny. It's my second most established art site. While also going to slightly compensate its human nsfw restrictions with Weasyl and Itaku. Gallery is basically split all over the place. It's annoiying. My Newgrounds is sfw only, but it allows nsfw content. But it doesn't feel the same as other types of art sites. Pixiv is so quiet/not social.

I'm avoiding twitter because of how bad it is for mental health and such.

Yeah, I don't like using Twitter for nsfw content either. It's like a public marketplace and porn has no place there in my opinion.

There should be a poll where you can see where most would go now. I will not change my style.

This was exactly what I was afraid would happen. Very sorry to see you have to go but I fully understand it, and as you said in a comment feral art is very likely to be next. I've been seeing more and more human-only porn on the frontpage, with no furry characteristics at all. I don't know if it's a protest or a sign of things to come.

Like you I don't know where else to go. InkBunny does seem to be the one it'll end up as, though.

I know many people only from here. On IB I have few followers. But it would be nice if people could find each other on one page.

Talk somewhere the artists where you could go? I can ask badly in the FA discord where all go x.x'

I'm one of your followers on IB. <3

thank you!

wie jetz?? ham die admins hier etwa nen schlechtes liebesleben das die aufeinmal so behämmert sind???

Ich weiß es nicht :(

echt schade :(

Könnte man jedenfalls meinen :D zumindest haben leider viele Künstler jetzt mt zensurproblemen zu kämpfen und einige haben schon ganze Galerien gelöscht deshalb ;(

ist doch echt mist

So sorry you have to leave,your work is amazing, I also have an Inkbunny more so as a second site and would be more than happy to follow you there as well. If FA plans on bringing in more human nsfw art then it is slowly losing the "fur" in furrafinity which is a shame.

Thank you, I would appreciate a follow.
I'm trying to delete all the banned images. Should my Feralsachen but then also be banned, ..... I can no longer draw anything.

I really hope it does not come to that, your feral stuff is beautiful. And I would be be happy to be a follower of your work over there. On IB I do not thinking your wonderful feral and halfantho draws will be banned there.

Might check out PostyBirb as that allows you to post to a bunch of sites at once. That way you can try out a few sites, even some of the quieter ones. At least makes it easier to not put all your eggs in one basket. Someone even made a downloader that makes it easy to migrate stuff from FA: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/52692497/

As for an answer, Weasyl, Itaku and IB are the ones I see suggested most often.

I know Postybirds, but it bugs me that I have to register there again and again. And I can not check all the pages when someone wants to write me a note, that is alels very time consuming :(

Hab vor einiger Zeit mal einen Account auf https://furrynetwork.com gemacht. Sieht bis jetzt sehr gut aus. Hat fürs Hochladen verschiedene Kategorien und die Bilder werden wohl nicht komprimiert.
Die Galleriefunktion ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig aber man kommt damit klar.

danke für die Infos!

Die haben auch einen gallerie importer: https://furrynetwork.com/import-data

wie wo was... ist das? o.O wie funzt das?
ich weiß das ich da einen account hatte, ich hoffe ich finde noch meine anmelde daten.

Oh, irgendwie funktioniert das gerade nicht :(

Ich habs damals ewig probiert und das hat nie funktioniert. Am Ende hab ich dann doch alles von Hand hochgeladen, zumindest was es wert war.

Itaku is kinda what I decided to go with. It works pretty well and it has a functional blacklist.

Ich hab ein ähnliches Problem wie du. Ich hab auch eine Feral-Fursona (ich glaube du hast sie sogar schon mal gezeichnet) und hab viel Pokemon NSFW gezeichnet. Das waren so ziemlich die Sachen mit denen ich überhaupt bekannt wurde. Ich hab bereits einfach alles gelöscht was nicht quasi Mensch-mit-Tierkopf ist obwohl ich einen weniger cuten style habe. Ich hab erst heute erfahren, dass wohl das meiste kein Problem gewesen wäre aber ehrlich gesagt hatte ich auch kein Bock das nächsten Monat ein anderer Moderator anders entscheidet, wenn er meine Bilder sieht. Ich denke ich werde mein FA in Zukunft rein SFW halten, auch ich hab das Gefühl das mit der letzten Regeländerung der Feral-Ban (der vor einigen Jahren oder so auch schon mal versucht wurde) wieder durch die Hintertür kommt.

Neue Seiten hab ich eher weniger ausprobiert. Itaku.ee hab ich mir angeschaut und auch wenn ich noch nicht dazu gekommen bin was hochzuladen haben die ein Feature das mir sehr gut gefällt und das ist eine bessere Trennung zwischen SFW und NSFW, jeder Account hat auch ein NSFW-Profil das man optional dazuschalten kann. Das macht das surfen auch angenehmer, ich persönlich will nicht permanent porn sehen, wenn ich ne Seite besuche und will auch nicht das jeder sofort meinen After-Dark content sieht.

Ansonsten die üblichen verdächtigen
Weasyl, SoFurry, FurryNetwork. Dank PostyBirb ist es kaum Mehraufwand eine weiter Galerie zu haben. Was Kommentare und so angeht geht bei mir am meisten über Social Media da bin ich mit Mastodon auf meow.social unterwegs, 'ne NSFW freundliche Instanz die auch semi-feral NSFW-Kram im gewissen Rahmen erlaubt. Mastodon bietet über featured-hashtags sogar die Möglichkeit eine Galerie zu improvisieren. Ansosnten ist es natürlich gut um auf seine Seiten zu verweisen. Aus meiner Sicht ist FA genauso tot wie die anderen Seiten weil es auf FA einfach so unheimlich schwer ist überhaupt gefunden zu werden da es keine Möglichkeit zum Teilen oder Boosten von Bildern gibt.

Von InkBunny halte ich mich fern. Da sind mir einige Leute einfach zu Creepy, deshalb hab ich meinen account auch gelöscht. Ich hatte mal eine Kommentarsektion gemeldet in der sich die Leute darüber unterhalten haben was sie den Nachbarskindern gerne antun würden. Das wurde trotz meiner Meldung nicht moderiert und das war mir dann einfach zu gestört.

Uff .... dein letzter Satz ist echt hart :(
Aber so etwas habe ich auch von der EF gehört, nur mit Tieren. Ich denke überall gibt es Drecksleute x.x'

Ich möchte auf meinen Bildern einen Link zu meiner Hauptseite geben wie ich es bisher getan habe, darum ist es mir so wichtig mein zeug nicht zu verteilen, sondern eher etwas zu finden was für mich FA ersetzen kann.

Ich war auch arg verstört, das der Mod meinte, meine Sachen waren auch vor der Regelung nicht erlaubt. Ja bitte was? Ich bin hier seid 17 Jahren, die können mir doch nciht sagen das sie mich nicht gesehen haben.

Weasly fand ich damals sehr schön. Hatte nur aufgehört die Galarie zu pflegen weil das mühsam ist überall zu sein.
jedes mal wenn ich bei Postybrid wieder überall meine Daten eintragen muss, verdrehe ich die Augen und klicke es weg xD

Hrm..... Weasly oder Furrynetwork.... du sehen auf den ersten Blick erstmal ansprechend aus.
Hier auf FA konnte man ja auch den Knopf für only sfw drücken um keinen nsfw kontent mehr zu sehen. Ich weiß aber nicht ob die anderen das auch haben oder wie deren Regeln da aussehen. Ich tu mich sehr schwer die zu finden.

Mich hat glaub ich auch viel mehr gestört das die Moderatoren es nicht für nötig hielten gegen sowas vorzugehen und dann wollte ich mit der Seite nichts mehr zutun haben.

Ich kann das auf jeden Fall verstehen das man seine Sachen irgendwie zentral lagern will aber ohne eigene Webseite die man unter Kontrolle hat ist das schwer. Ich pack auf meine Bilder in der Regel so die Links zu den drei wichtigsten Seiten, nicht zu viel. Soll ja nicht alles text sein. Meist nichtmal die links, weil die tippt ja eh keiner ab. Nur den Namen der Seite und was mein Username ist. Wenn man sich zu sehr auf eine Seite verlässt, siehst du ja was da passieren kann. Und selbst die eigene Seite kann man verlieren, was mir passiert ist (zugegebener maßen, war es da aber Faulheit).

Ich bin ja auch schon so lange hier, damals von AGNPH herübergekommen mit meinem Pokemonkram und das einzige mal das mich jemand reportet hat war als ich aus versehen nicht auf Adult gestellt hatte. Und selbst das war schon assi. Anstatt zu sagen was denn das verfluchte Problem war und mal nen Link zu dem Bild kam nur ein "Wir einen Regelverstoß Festgestellt, bitte beheben sonst wirste gebannt" und ich musste dann raten uns selber rausfinden was denn das Problem sein könnte.

Das PostyBirb ab und zu die Log-Ins vergisst ist nervig aber es spart echt so viel Zeit ein Bild auf mehren Seiten hochzuladen. Früher hat mich das oft den ganzen Abend gekostet für nur ein Bild. Das hat mich zeitweilig so abgenervt das ich sogar gar nichts mehr hochgeladen hab.

So hätte ich an deiner Stelle wohl auch reagiert :(
Man ey ....
kann es nicht eine FA kopie nur in Besser geben? >.<


Die einen sagen IB ist eine gute Alternative, wenn man ne Blacklist reinpackt. Die anderen sagen geh zu Furrynetworkt. Die anderen Itaku. Weasly ist offenbar noch weniger los als auf FA D:
Verflucht .... und ich hasse Interface die aussehen als wäre sie einem Win 8 entsprungen.

Wäre es ne Kopie wäre es genauso schlecht. ;3

Ich glaube, wenn man schon so lange auf einer Seite ist wie wir, dann ist vieles auch Gewohnheit. Man will sich ungern was neues suchen, was man noch nicht kennt.

Alle anderen Seiten haben zum Teil gute Funktionen wie auf Weasyl zum Beispiel die Möglichkeit commisions zu featuren so das deine Bilder in der Gallerie vom Auftraggeber angezeigt werden und die views, comments und favs trotzdem bei dir als Künstler landen.

Itaku mit der Trennung von SFW und NSFW Profil so das man auch NSFW avatare haben kann. Oder Möglichkeit commisions sheets to reboosten damit man nicht permanent reminder posten muss.

Furry Network hat die Möglichkeit zu boosten (quasi nen Retweet für bilder).

Inkbunny hat sowas wie nen comic Viewer so das man einfach durch Comicseiten navigieren kann.

Das sind alles Funktionen die mir FA schon immer gefehlt haben, merkt man aber erst, wenn man die Seite verlässt.

Zum Beispiel hat FA auch immer noch keine filter und die Unzulänglichkeiten in Bedienung und Features werden alle paar Jahre mal mit leichten optischen Anpassung kaschiert.

Wenn man ehrlich ist, ist es noch die selbe seite wie 2006.

Darum meinte ich ja wie FA nur in Besser. Ich weiß ja das der Seite einiges gefehlt hat. Z.B. Mochte ich bei IB dieses, du klickst auf ein Bild, und kannst von dem gleich mehrere versionen sehen wenn du weiter klickst ( das meinst du bestimmt mit diesem Comic Dings)

Die Qual der Wahl ist ernüchternd. Ich mag nur dieses Design wie Win 8 so gar nicht, da kriegt mein innerer Monk einen zuviel D:

Das ist auch nen cooles Feature aber ich meine nen anderes, das nennt sich glaube ich Image Pools und ist ähnlich wie Ordner auf FA aber mit eigener navigation.

InkBunny wäre für mich auf jeden Fall keine gute Hauptgalerie die ich auch auf meinen Bildern bewerben würde. Klar gibts ne Blacklist aber standardmäßig sieht man alles auch cub porn, wenn man frisch auf die Seite kommt und im schlimmsten fall wird man dann für einen gehalten der das befürwortet oder was auch immer und dann ist der ruf schnell dahin.

Ich versuche mich so breit wie möglich aufzustellen, man weiß ja auch nie wo die Leute so sind und nur die wenigsten melden sich für einen artist auf ner neuen Seite an. Deswegen packe ich immer so die drei wichtigsten auf meine Bilder.

Was ich auch immer wieder sehe ist das sich Künstler einen Linktree Account oder sowas organisieren, liken da zu allen Gallerien und packen den Linktree auf die bilder. So ist man auch flexibel bei Änderungen.

Selbst wenn es die Kopie in besser geben würde, wo soll sie gehostet sein? Andere Länder andere Sitten aber irgendwem stößt es dann doch auf und du hast n Problem.... websitehosting mit nsfw Inhalten is schwierig :/

Sag bitte bescheid wenn du eine neue digitale Heimat gefunden hast die dann aktiv gepflegt wird :) Danke :3

Mache ich :)

FA wird bleiben, solange die mich nicht komplett rausschmeißen. Aber halbanthro nsfw und Pokemon zeug muss hier halt weg bleiben.
Gut das IB als 2t seite da taugt. Weasly schaue ich mir zur zeit auch an.
ist nur alles sehr stressig gerade kurz vorm Artfight.

you can try https://itaku.ee/home , i have heard only good things about it so far

I have an inkbunny account.

I moved to every other relevant site except FA. That means sofurry, inkbunny, furrynetwork, weasyl, I considered Pixiv too but I am not sure regarding their policies in written fiction so that one is on hold.

I'm flirting with Weasly because it looks somewhat similar to the interface and I liked it a lot back then.
But the ToS are so much, I don't know which of them is particularly relevant for me. Not that I'm not welcome there either.

Looking at Weasyl's community guidelines, I don't think you'll fare any better there. The rules regarding "child-like characters" are just as strict there as they are here on FurAffinity.

Minors in Sexual/Mature Situations: Submissions and other uploaded content must not contain characters who are or are depicted as being under the age of eighteen present in sexual situations, whether or not they are directly involved. Additionally, minors may not be depicted with unacceptable nudity. "Depicted as being under the age of eighteen" can mean one of two things:

*The character is referred to or implied as being under 18, whether in a visual or written piece, or;

*The character in question has small child- or infant-like proportions (excepting stylized depictions of adults that incorporate childlike proportions, e.g. “chibi”). Canon is taken into consideration; however, if the character has the appearance of being under 18 or is not depicted “aged up”, the submission may still be removed.

...... nice ...

I'm slowly becoming more active on InkBunny now.

Right now InkBunny and Twitter seem to be the main sites most are moving too, mainly due to both having the highest level of active users. I think you should move more of your activity to InkBunny for now, while looking into a site you feel would be better as a main gallery to share, and keeping InkBunny as a secondary or back-up gallery. I'd also suggest you use Twitter for some limited, low quality and watermarked art, and announcements for when you are open for commissions and updates to your Patreon, etc.

From what you've said above Weasyl would be a better replacement as a main gallery so I would suggest you start doing so and sharing it regularly as you post all your old and new work to Weasyl. The only way sites like Weasyl will gain more traffic is if artists like yourself start using and pushing it. No-one ever shows their presence on other sites with the exception of FA and Twitter.

Yes, I will try to expand Weasly. It actually feels good there. I just hope there will be visitors there too.

I don't like twitter for nsfw content. Twitter is like a public marketplace and you don't put yourself on the market in a bdsm outfit and call out invitations for the club :(

I have a nsfw twitter account too but it doesn't feel right somehow. ._.

Twitter could be an option

yeaaaa no. It backfires very easy because its more of a social media page, not an art page...

There are artists who use Twitter, it may not be a great option but still an option nonetheless

yea but with rukis art, its kinda dangerus. twitter is not really the most friendly page for such kind of stuff.

True that Twitter isn't a friendly page, but is there ever a page that doesn't have at least one jerk? It's completely fine if rukis doesn't want to do that, there's plenty of other sites and I do hope rukis finds one that's good for rukis

Ich nutz Twitter, Inkbunny & Instagram, Discord. Und wenn all das eines Tages auch nicht mehr funktionieren sollte, also wenn die ebenfalls solche "regeln" aufstellen sollten, ja dann erstelle ich mir im aller schlimmsten Fall eine eigene Webseite.

There's a few options - Pixiv, Itaku, IB, FurryNetwork, SoFurry, Baraag (or other Mastodon art instances)... :P It's pick and choose haha.

yes it really is a pain. Visually, all of the interface look full of shit, except weasly xD That in turn has a certain order.

dafür hab ich zum glück immer ne carrd perrat. da muss man nicht ne wand voll mit links schicken ^^

https://watheanum.carrd.co/

Bin denk ich mal auf den "üblichen" seiten. Ich weis halt nicht wie es mit meiner art hier stehen wird, eigendlich mach ich mir keine sorgen doch könnte nur meine Lemmings-art darunter leiden, was wirklich extremst blöd wär...

Wäre eine gute Idee so etwas. Hatte ich mit Willow, aber irgendwie spackt die seite.

benutz carrd. is auch gratis und schnell gemacht. gibt auch ne erweiterte (KOSTENPFLICHTIGE) version aber für gratis reichts ^^

Yeah it's pretty shit that they are doing this :/

Wait this is the very first time I'm reading anything about this; Google isn't of great help, can someone please tell me/link something that explains it? Is any Pokemon/half-anthro stuff forbidden from now on? Or is it for nsfw-stuff exclusively? (which would still suck.) What exactly *IS* the new rule? Sorry for being dumb lol

only nsfw

https://www.furaffinity.net/journals/fender

Thank you!

Ich werd wie viele andere (was ich so mitgegriegt habe) bei Weasly hingehen eventuell noch inkbunny . kann ja nicht schaden sich breit zu fächern zur Absicherung

Das stimmt. Ist nur doof wenn sich die Leute so weit auseinander verteilen @.@

You think seeing adult Cub Art on InkBunny's front page is bad? Well wait until you realize the fucking site is literally crawling with pedophiles. Yeah, pedophiles; actual ones. We're not talking about Cut Art fans or Cub Art artists, in fact we're not talking about anything drawn or fictional. We're talking about actual sick fucks who chant "pride" on being attracted to minors, and talk openly about how they want or would like to fuck REAL children, impunely showing the middle finger to anyone who points at their fuckery. And guess what, the staff is doing absolutely NOTHING about this; even worse, I think they're supporting it. So yeah, I think you should consider whatever other website if you're looking for a long-term place to stay, because seeing how everything is going over that place, it gives the feeling of being standing on thin ice the more time the staff stays without moving a finger.

This totally bugs me :(
Yeah, Inkbunny is really not a site I'd be proud to link to. Because of such creeps I have already heard of.

But it's probably the only site that would completely tollerate my half-anthros, no matter how short guessed they would look.

The other sites have similar rules to FA and I was irritated that my semianthro art supposedly looked too minor before and belonged banned. Only there was not yet the 2.7 rule, where it is purely about the optics and it does not matter whether the character is supposed to be adult. (Just like pokemon)

Can the operators of IB not be addressed again? How can they be completely indifferent? Yes, pure fiction should remain pure fiction. But as soon as you let the RL participate, the tolerance stops.

INKBUNNY :D

Artconomy ( https://artconomy.com/ ) would definitely allow your work and even has a neat commissioning system you can use.

unfortunately the site has an ugly Win8 layout. It feels like it was developed especially for cell phone use. :(

I suggest instead of deleting pictures, replacing them with some kind of sfw crop and explanation why full is not available anymore. You could also mention the sites where they will be posted now, but without direct links, as i don't think direct links to prohibited content are allowed.

Okay, I'm obviously stumped, not knowing what 2.7 means.
But that's pretty much normal for me, I guess.

Weasyl existiert, genauso wie Inkbunny, Deviantart, Pixiv, SoFurry oder, falls Du die Nase da nochmal reinstecken magst, FB ( Flamebase, errrm, FurryBase, das Deutsche Furry Forum )

Pixiv, DeviantArt, SoFurry, Weasyl and Inkbunny all can be handled via PostyBirb, so it is no problem to do mass uploads. Even Newgrounds ("Tomorrows problems, Today!") does offer that.

Other popular platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and such "general purpose Social Media" carry the risk of direct being crosslinked with whatever you do not wish to be crosslinked with and , most of all, in public and for all time.

From the context I got from reading in here I am wondering if this "2.7" was either relevant at all, was phrased in the usual stupid way that's common for public communication, was outright malicious or just unlikely maybe really something intentional and meant as it was written.

In the 12 years I was here I've seen enough stupidity from everyone involved that, if not for my experiences on the german FurBase, I would have despaired.
However, accustomed to work with the average humans idiocity, as soon as they became available, I reanchored in parallel in Weasyl, SoFurry, Inkbunny and a bunch of others websites.

Postybirb was a huge relief there, but came only years after I had spread out.



So, maybe the best thing when you want to be safe is to make accounts on all sites supported by Postybirb and then go over your gallery here and recreate all your inventory in Postybirb to duplicate your gallery to all other platforms at hand.
Its the same work you'll have no matter where you go, but has the advantage making any future fuckup a minor issue.

Also always a fallback option: E631!
You can directly upload to there using Postybirb, so ease of use is assured.
And the NSFW / SFW feature you seem to look for you may find in SoFurry.

that's right. Only I could not be available everywhere, if someone has questions. I don't have the time.

Suggestion? LEave on each platform a message that you check daily on one specific platform, and on all others only once a month, maybe stating the day(s) where you are checking on the other platforms.

As somebody who is not expecting getting messages at all, checking all platforms daily takes me about 12 minutes.
Basically hitting F5 about a dozen times and then looking at the results.

I'm more likely to really read and respond to news and comments here and on IB. Otherwise it will be too much.

*thumbs up* Then simply refer in the other platforms that messages and comments are processed here and on IB and everything will be spiffy.
The next time something gets shittified, you just need to mod the comments on your main profile pages where you react and work and bang! Done!
