(why this journal entry? go here to find out... http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/20760/)
Here's my 2 cents:
I was reluctant to come here. I had heard bad stuff like slow, disorganize, crappy interface, etc. ... But when another website that will remain nameless decide to give Furry/Anthro art the boot, I, along with many others ,wound up refuging here. I wasn't happy about it, but I kinda felt there was really no other choice. Here's what's sad: that I ever had any doubts about coming here in the first place. Instead, I now see any and all time spent at the other mentioned but unamed website to be a waste of time -- time that I could have been enjoying here if I had only come here first.
It doesn't seem cliquish here. It seems very welcoming and laid back. Hell, I don't even post artwork (cause I really can't draw worth a shit), instead I upload music.mp3 files, which I'm sure take up much more room than art.jpg file. No one has said anything about this other than, "Hey! Great music you have there!" How Encouraging! I've even done a spot of collab with another member here, and not on art, but on music. I know that's not the main theme for this site/project, so I understand how permissive the administration is being about this. What I don't understand is tell of there being alot of negative feedback about FA. I can come here and do my thing for FREE, I REALLY appreciate this site.
But I guess some people are poor, and they just need change from this site. Anyone else wanna throw in their 2 cents? ;)

I agree with you that the possibility to upload music is a great feature, as is the more liberal view of art. That unnamed site has always been too strict for my taste, but what they're doing now is ridiculous. I don't understand the negative comments I hear about FA as well. I guess some people are never satisfied. To them I say, if you don't like it, don't come here. And if you can't find something you like, go make up your own site.
Anyways, yay for FA. ^^
if there's anyone making a stink here, i want to avoid adding to it. you know.
