A quick little rant.
12 years ago
Please, to all furries who are wanting a commissions not only from myself but from others. Learn how to type properly. I'm not talking about the occasional typo here and there, I am talking about poor grammar and zero punctuation.
I am tired of getting emails from individuals that read something like this:
"how much for a costume of my character. ur work is so cool how long would it take to get what i want? i have been wanting a furry suit 4evah!!!11!! kthxbai"
PLEASE put in a little effort when contacting professionals, either for art or fursuits. Whenever I get an email which reads like this I simply delete it because contacting them back and attempting to get the information I need from them for their quote is just not worth it.
If you want a commission and your noting someone, or sending them an email, please use this simple format:
"Hello (name of person/company)
I am interested in (product name here) I am curious as to the cost involved. I've attached an image/link to the character I'd like (said product) to me made of.
Thank you for your time,
Sincerely
(Insert name here)"
And when I say 'insert name here' please be respectful. Don't put YiffyMcFoxYiff or SEXYDAWG or anything of the sort. A human name will do just fine. Nothing's wrong will Bill, Jessica, Devon, Hanna, ect. We won't think any less of you. I always sign my emails via my real name, Mallory.
It's not that hard. Really. I guess I see why some larger companies or businesses only take commissions via their website where one has to fill out an order form to ensure all information needed for a quote is given.
Anyways that's my rant, carry on with your evenings!

FA+

I also love furs who say "I'd like to commission you but I can't pay you..."
Clearly these boneheads don't know what the word "commission" means... last I checked it doesn't mean "Man Servant".
"i want a fur suit thing, but i only have $150 can you make one for that much?" -____________-
"Oh sure!! Would you like the fucking shirt off my back as well?"
I couldn't even reply, I just. No. But another person replied with
"Oh didn't you know? We only skin puppies! Its takes a lot of abuse to get them all the pretty colors, but only the cutest puppies are skinned for their coats, and skinned alive!" LOL
People are idiots sometimes, UGH
"Is the fur real wolf fur??" "Yep.. I was riding along on the TTC one day and saw a random black wolf on the road.. I quickly jumped off the bus and decided to kill the black wolf to make his fur into a fursuit for myself..."
Seems perfectly rational to me.... morons.....
DAMNIT KITTY, there goes my secret e-mail identity...
Though on a real note, totally on-point. Even worse when all that you wrote is combined with endless run on sentences that just go on and on without any evidence of stopping for the reader to take everything in.
