Display Name Change
Posted 6 months agoFinally nice to see this feature implemented.
In my case, my original account name was an altered form on my original sona name, but my sona has changed a few times since then. And now here we are.

He's dead Jim...
Posted a year agoThis is hard to out into words...
My father passed away just a bit after Midnight on Valentines day. He had been fighting a form of Bone Marrow cancer and he was unable to get a transplant due to the fact that his kidneys were not healthy enough. He had been reacting pretty well to antibiotics and infusions. But less than a week before he passed, he got a fever and had to be taken to the hospital. He was having trouble breathing and the diagnosed him as having Pneumonia. Even o oxygen he was still what they call belly breathing, which is not good.
My younger sister, who is visiting from Ireland, has been a real trooper through all of this as she stayed at the hospital with him since he got admitted. She called us at about 12:30 AM Valentines day and said he was unresponsive and basically gone... We said our final goodbyes to him over the phone (despite him not being able to respond to us) as the hospital is about an hour away and none of us would have has the energy or gumption to drive there again.
Even though he and I didn't get along all the time... He's still family, and it's hard to lose family no matter how much you might have disagreed with them.
RIP Dad... January 25, 1952 - February 14, 2024

New Laptop
Posted 2 years agoWhile my old laptop was still working fine, it was more than 6 years old and since my mom had offered to help me buy a new one up to a certain dollar amount I did (I did go over said dollar amount but we agreed the rest would come out of my pocket.)
So I now own an MSI laptop that has a lot of good specs in it.

Pretty big change incoming
Posted 3 years agoSo bit of a story leading up to this.
I first discovered the furry fandom back in the summer of 2009. And even though I first joined FA in November of 2010, I had created the first iteration of Kumori before then. Apart from about 1 year since I had created him, I always had seen Kumori as my main fursona (And even then, that one year I had changed it was more because my boyfriend at the time liked the character in question more). Kumori has gone through about 5 or 6 iterations (Started as a pure wolf, then become a wolf/fennec, then a wolf/dragon, then back to the same wolf fennec so I don't count that as a different iteration, then a 5 tailed kitsune/fennec although you could argue he was pure fennec for a while between the last two although that wasn't long enough for me to consider it a full iteration, and now most recently a 9 tailed kitsune/fennec.)
Now why am I giving the history of what I have done with Kumori? Because for about the past week I've been thinking he may not quite be the correct fursona for me. In that I mean he is more of what I want to be than what I am. I had been discussing this with other friends before writing this out here and for the most part they were all in unison with saying to go ahead with the change.
So that being said, Troy Ryder, my jex character, is now my main fursona. Kumori is not going to vanish at all, at worst he will become a secondary fursona of sorts. The reason I picked Troy is because, while I didn't intend it when I first created him, he has a lot of same or very similar characteristics to myself IRL.
I don't know how everyone here will react to this. But life has just been telling me it's time for this change to occur.
Thank you to all who read this and I hope you all understand

Suggestions for an artist
Posted 4 years agoI'm hoping my watchers can help me out here.
I'm looking for an artist that can do a wedding art piece of two of my characters.
My budget is flexible, but preferably nothing too expensive.
Thank you in advance

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings short review
Posted 4 years agoKitsunes had next to no screen time!!! 0 out of 5 stars!!!
...
In all seriousness though, The movie was honestly very good. And that is coming from someone who doesn't follow the Marvel lore that much/that well. The CGI and action scenes were all amazing. I personal would give the movie 4 out of 5 stars.

In memory of Animeloverchaos
Posted 9 years agoHe was young and was taken from us sooner than he should have been. Even though I didn't know him well I'm still emotional over this because it's bringing back memories of my junior year in high school when a classmate of mine passed away in his sleep.
wherever you are... I hope you are having fun stepping on your friends in the second life

Fursuit Concept question
Posted 9 years agoDoes anyone know of someone that makes inflatable fursuits? but not just any inflatable, muscle inflatables. Because I was hoping to implement my sona's nose boop muscle growth concept into a fursuit.
A bit different than the norm
Posted 10 years agoI know a lot of people do Macro March and Micro May. For me it will be the other way around. My reason being that since my birthday is in May, I'd rather be macro instead of micro on the day.
A little backstory on my sona and OCs
Posted 12 years agoSona:
Kumori (Species: 5 tailed Fensune (fennec/kitsune); Height: 5'9"; Weight: 190; YOB: 1991; Birthday: 5/28; Sex: Male; Occupation: F1 Engineer):
After all the issues Kumori has had in his past, his life finally seems to be settling down. After a brief career in the EPL which was cut short due to being shot, he transitioned to F1 where he had a good career there as well, winning the championship in 2017. 2019 is his farewell season as a driver, but he will be sticking around as a race engineer for a certain fox.
Secondary Sona:
Troy Ryder (Species: Jex; Height: 5'6"; Weight: 180; YOB: 1996; Birthday: 8/15; Sex: Male; Occupation: eSport racer and F1 driver)
OCs:
Tyrus (Species: Husky; Eye Color: Ice blue; Height: 6'8"; Weight: 380; YOB: 1992; Birthday: 12/10 Job: Wrestler) Powerful, Loving, Strong hearted out of ring. Dominant, Aggressive, Unbound while in the ring. He wears casual clothes, such as loose fit shirts, mainly to show his rippling muscles, tank tops and combat pants. He also wears a dog chain around his neck.
Kit (Species: Fennec fox; Height: 4'; Weight: 200; YOB: 1990; Birthday: 5/28; Sex: Male; Occupation: F1 team owner):
Kit is Kumori's older brother in the fact that his parents adopted Kumori. They first met when Kit was 2 and have really good friends ever since. Kit's 200 lbs of weight is all from working out, he is very muscular. As live went on and Kumori got into his sports careers, Kit got into medicine. In 2019 he had enough money to start up an F1 team which he did to sort of reconnect with Kumori. The first two seasons were a bit rough but he's hopeing things will turn around.
Kyler (Species: Arctic Fox; Height: 6'8; Weight: 250; YOB: 1999; Birthday: 10/7; Sex: Male; Occupation: FBA Player)
Younger brother of Kit. When it came to sports he saw Kumori as an idol. Trying to learn to be a soccer player, but he was unable to be good enough to even run with the ball well. He took a liking to basketball and which he was on the shorter side before high school, he grew a lot and into the team's star player. which continued in his two years of college before he got drafted to the FBA
Kentaro (Species: Arcanine; Height: 8'; Weight: 800; YOB: 1997; Birthday: 2/15; Sex: Male; Occupation: Professional Fighter)
Kentaro, or Ken for short, wasn't always as big as he is, when he was 8, his house caught on fire, and being able to absorb fire, he did unintentionally, and it caused his growth to be a lot more so over the next few years. After seeing how big he became, he thought he would be good as a fighter, and it has paid off quite well.
Zion (Species: Fruit bat; Height: Varies; Weight: Varies; YOB: 1988; Birthday: 3/10; Sex: Male; Occupation: Unemployed)
Zion is a fruit bat, but he is different, one would say he is a genie, but he doesn't live in a lamp, and he has no restrictions on wishes or who can make the wishes, expect for his enemies. He is colored red, with some black tribal markings on his chest. His eyes are also colored red, and they glow slightly. He is a bit of a trickster, but he would never hurt anyone except for his enemies. He has no default size, because that too is determined by what people wish him to be. The only things he can't do is change his gender or species, and while he is capable of killing people with his magic, he refuses to. He may look like a bad guy, but he means well
Avalan (Species: Aardwolf; Height: 7'6"; Weight: 350; YOB: 1989; Birthday: 12/1; Sex: Male; Occupation: Pro Hockey Player):
While most Aardwolves (striped hyenas) are usually on the smaller size, Avalan was blessed with amazing genes. Not only did he become rather tall, we was also blessed to be really bulky, so bulky in fact that he has to custom order shirts that fit him, although he generally goes shirtless. Avalan proved to be good at hockey while growing up. And he was drafted immediately after he became eligible to play in the NHL. He quickly became the team's star player and the captain within his second year.
Ryo-Kaku (Species: Otter; Height: 5'8"; Weight: 180; YOB: 1994; Birthday: 9/22; Sex: Male; Occupation: Warrior/Mage):
While this otter was not born with the name Ryo-Kaku. He legally changed it to make his out look on life, believing that all living creatures are like passengers on a stream in the river. He is a combination warrior and mage, he has a relatively strong build along the lines of a warrior, although he's not built massively. He also has the ability to control and manipulate water, which he uses while in battle for making armor and weapons. When he isn't being serious with his job, he is rather laid back.
I do also have more minor characters that I sometimes, but rarely use in RP, but not beyond that, so I don't really consider them OCs
Kumori (Species: 5 tailed Fensune (fennec/kitsune); Height: 5'9"; Weight: 190; YOB: 1991; Birthday: 5/28; Sex: Male; Occupation: F1 Engineer):
