Thanks everyone. And thanks to Ego, of course, who's a big sweety.

So I have a question for you all now. My visual artistic talents are miserably, wretchedly awful, so I'm looking for a good book or set of instructions on how to start churning out some general furry stuff...I need something to doodle at work, and I'm embarrassed to claim as my own any of the things I've tried so far. Help a newbie out?
