here -

Hey guys, I know it's been quite a long time and I've dropped off the map recently but I'm back and going to do my best to stay back and ontop of getting you guys the info you need!

So, to do this there will be a few changes to how I go about things as far as keeping in contact with you guys.


I: Changes to our FA Page




--- I will no longer be following back other accounts, and I'm going to clear this account of everyone it is watching.

The reason behind doing this is so that I don't have to cycle through 5000+ submissions every time I check the page to gather just a couple of pictures related to dance to favorite.

Instead of me doing this, I ask you guys that if you would like to post a picture or submissions with us then use the Pictures/FA Submissions Journal. I will see it on there and favorite it from that. (you will find more info about this in the Updates section)

This way, I can focus more on doing more things with the page itself than spending hours upon end by going through a list of submissions that usually don't have content that we like to favorite so others can see.


---- Our notes system should only be used to give us direct information about cons, and idea for an event you had, or other such things that are different from just 'joining' the page/asking for guidance/etc.

As far as "joining" DancerFurs goes; if you love to dance, are looking to get into it, or really just like going around and having fun dancing. Then you are a DancerFur and this community page is for you. It's not about how many competitions you do, if you have a fursuit, or how skilled you are at the current moment. This page is here for you to use as a tool to get the information you need to grow as a dancer and to communicate with others! I cannot stress that enough!


Once more, the best way to ask for critique/information/help with something is to use our new journal system!

Which you will find info on a bit below in our Updates section!

---

The links to the styles on the page info is for quick examples of the styles we have found so far to put up for YOU! These links sometimes will of course break and or lead to a deleted video.

BECAUSE OF THIS we are going to attempt to get all of these styles done by different furries and post them on our own YouTube page. This not only shows that everything is possible with enough effort, but it gives us the ability to control the videos ourselves, and take care of the links to make sure they are always available to you!

For now, we'll be choosing people to do this but eventually we'll be opening up sign ups to do them as well!







II: Updates

So we're going to be introducing a few new systems and such as far as how the page works! I'm really excited about this so I'm just gonna go right into it!


--- Firstly! As mentioned before we're going to be using a new way to keep things organized not only for us but for you as well.

Basically how this is going to work is we're going to use journals to make a sort of forum system. There will be different journals that you can post your content in so that it is easily visible to not only us but other dancers you may be seeking help from.

And it works visa versa as well, because everything will be grouped together like this, those of you who are looking to give help and information can easily find people seeking it!

To keep these updated and uncrowded over time, we will be clearing them and making new ones by a period of 6 months. (if it gets to be filled/outdated even faster then we will start clearing them in shorter periods)

We will be making them in these categories for now.

1 - Artwork/Pictures/FA Submissions (mainly used for us to favorite them so they show up on the page and others may see as well)

2 - Videos *SEEKING CRITIQUE* (mainly used only to give/get critique and constructive criticism)

3 - Videos/Requests *SEEKING HELP INFORMATION* (this will be mainly used for a way to get help and not necessarily critique. Mainly for those starting a new style or dancing period)



---- We'll be taking more care of the styles links as mentioned before. Again if you notice something is broken please send us a note with "Broken Link - *Given Style*" In it.

---

Artists!

If you would like to submit an icon for us to use! Please send us over a note! We used to do a small mini like contest/competition. But it hasn't gotten much use at all. If we do end up using it we'll post it in our submissions page as well and link back to your page so that people know of course it was you!

Depending on how many/how often we receive them, we will be changing it periodically.




III: Clarification on 'DancerFurs' as a group

I would just like to make a point on certain things about "us".

This page was started by and I to give back to the community and help it grow.

Not to create some type of elitist clique.



Now I'm not getting into anything that has happened recently regarding these situations. I would just like to clarify that we are a family.

And by this, I mean that we are welcoming to all those who want to learn, grow and have fun with us. You should never put down your fellow dancer based on their current skill level, abilities or style.


Being a dancer is more about the love you have for the art and the dedication you have to learning and growing rather than how skilled you are. It's about getting out there and having fun, and loving what you get to share with your other fellow dancers.


So just one more time I would like to say;

If you're looking to come in and learn or talk to any of the "DancerFurs" then by all means just stop by and say, "Hi! I'm looking to learn this or that" or, "I need help with this can you help me understand" or, "Hey I like to dance to, here's a video of me"


Just talk, socialize, meet people.

That's what Blue and I wanted from this. We wanted to help the community build upon itself and bring new people in and show them how much fun it is to learn and grow.


Thank you to those that understand that. To those that don't, please try to!
