Where else to find me - (and by proxy, the Paw-Post) :P

General
Thank you to all for the Watches, Favourites and great comments!
Since the FA Failboot has again slammed into an iceberg, lots of people have been posting these, and I would like to as well to point out that I am present on other sites, AND, that I also mirror the Paw Posts to them:
Active Sites: - IE, places to watch/follow me
Weasyl - https://www.weasyl.com/~toeclaws
Furry Network - https://beta.furrynetwork.com/tc_toeclaws/
Deviant Art - http://toeclaws.deviantart.com/
Inactive Sites: - IE, places that would be pointless to follow me. :P
SoFurry - https://toeclaws.sofurry.com/
InkBunny - https://inkbunny.net/ToeClaws
Personally, I think Weasyl is far and away the best of the alternative furry sites. It has the nicest layout, is fairly easy to use, has open/receptive staff and a very reliable up-time. I just got on Furry Network on Friday (after sitting on a beta key for half a year, heh) and it's.... ehh... okay, but still clearly a beta site and lacking features like journals. They're going to be adding that, but for now that's a really glaringly obvious problem. SoFurry and Inkbunny I only maintain an account on for the occasional time I need it to view something. I don't like either of the sites at all. No point on watching me at either of those locations.
The Paw Post:
I echo the Paw-Post in several places each week. Currently, I post it to FA, Deviant Art, Furry Network (via a note on my page because of the lack of journals), Weasyl, and it also goes out via an E-mail list for those who prefer e-mail. If you want to be sure not to miss a Paw-Post, please watch/follow me on one of those sites or let me know your e-mail so I can add it to the list. :)

Unsurprisingly I already was following you on most of those places, but good to double-check! I agree with you on Furry Network... it's getting a lot of attention and looks like it has promise, but man I can't make sense of it right now. XD I'll be interested to see how it develops. Of the non-FA options, Weasyl seems the most promising to me too, especially with some of the refinements they've made over time like improving the thumbnails and whatnot. And hey, I actually feel like I can make some sense of the galleries and my inbox, which is kind of important to me. XD

*nodsnods* The one thing Weasyl needs though - FN's "import" feature!

Yeah, FN's import feature is a huge advantage! It'll be even better once the submission management system is a bit more refined so I can figure out how to fix the stuff it imports in the wrong order, but that's getting more nitpicky. ;) What I have found that really makes my life easy for Weasyl though is an add-in for Chrome (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/waxpost-weasyl-crossposte/boddplgmdhddfmchbifhpdpekfdaenjc) that lets you navigate to one of your FA submissions, click the icon it puts in your Chrome browser, and then it prepares a Weasyl submission post with most of the information automatically transferred over. Saves a lot of the usual copy-paste-reformat hassle I have to when I'm posting to all the other galleries!

Yeah I know about that, but I could never get it to work... like at all. I thought the plugin was just dead and broken. :/

Huh, odd. Dunno what might do that, but it generally works fairly reliably for me! If I knew what to suggest to fix it for ya I would!
