If you had any wish of using art that I've done for you on Furcadia, please refrain. I've had enough problems with that service to consider it worth it to have my art any more publicly displayed on there than it already is WITHOUT my permission. It's getting to be as bad as Neopets in this aspect, and I refuse to be a part of it.

Call this an official boycott-- call it whatever. I'm tempted to urge other artists to do the same simply because of the place's reputation of being a haven for copywrite infringement. Despite the fact that the people who run it are supposedly 'investing their own money' in the services and are failing to make much money off of it, they're still ACCEPTING MONEY for a service they don't police in the least.

We call this wrong.

Thank you, goodnight.

I guess this means you won't be hitting that Furcadia CONVENTION in March, huh. :)

Furcadia Fantasy Festival. March 2005, up in Austin. I saw flyers for it at Anthrocon.

Yes, there are too many goddamned conventions.

Hmmm... If it's anywhere in SoCal, the whole problem could be cured with a brief visit carrying baseball bats.

I dunno.. I do not want to be anywhere near their collective anuses. Forcing each other to do it to themselves would mean I'd have to look at them. Can't we just do one big mass grave?

Hmmmm I understand the anger and reason. and I agree with you compleatly. I know many good artist that have had portriats and descritpion art stolen and then clamed as their own by the people that stole it. Though I personaly would ask for a commission at this time, I would wait till you are less stressed. I hope all will be well for you.
