Okay, sorry to bring 'Furries' up so much, but really, the subject kind of fascinates me in the whole archaeologist-uncovering-ancient-strange-customs kind of way.
Let's start off with: when I say furries in this journal, I'll be talking about '

eople who draw art of anthropomorphic animal characters." My first question is: when did this huge change come about, when people started to hate anthropomorphic animals? Back when I was a kid there were tons of them, still are in fact. Depending on your taste and gender, there was My Little Pony, Care Bears, Micky Mouse and his friends, Scrouge McDuck, Bugs Bunny and HIS friends (And the Tiny Toons of course), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and that's not even counting the videogames like StarFox, Sonic the Hedgehog, and even Mario turned into a furry with his Racoon ears and tail.
Those shows were great as a kid, so where did this turnabout of hate come in? Well, some are going to say 'stupid internet and anthro-porn' but that story doesn't really hold water. If your not going to like porn about old stuff, then you are in for disappointment as you can find Inspector Gaget Porn, Voltron Porn, Popeye porn. Heck, I'm sure if you searched hard enough you could find Mr. Potato Head Porn.
My point is, whether you like cartoon-ey porn or not, what makes adding some fur and a tail so bad? Okay, so it's not your thing, I can deal with that, but why do some people go diving off the deep end, and assume all furry-related stuff is evil because some people draw porn about it? That's like saying all women are evil after seeing a normal porno magazine . . . doesn't make any sense.
Now, I personally don't consider myself a furry. I've drawn antrho-art before, as you can easily check by viewing my gallery, but it's not all I do. Other people may consider me a furry because I once dared to draw anthro-related material, and thus am forever shamefully marked as 'teh furry' but, if that's what they think, it doesn't bother me. I don't think furries are the scurge of the galaxy like some people do, apparently.
Ammendum: Another 'argument' I've heard against furries is that they are all 'bonkers' and will run around in 'furry costumes.' Ignoring for a fact that this is untrue, and it is only a few of them that run around in costumes (whether or not I am a furry, I know several self-proclaimed furries and non of them run around in said costumes.) what is the difference between this and dressing up in cosplay for an anime convention? So, either write off the entire Nerd/Otaku (whatever you want to call it)community as 'snoopy loopy' or admit that costumes aren't the real problem here.

But seriously, that stuff deserves to be up there because it is good. I love manga cell-shading style, and as far as I can tell, that's what you do (or at least what it comes out looking like.) So keep up the good work. Oh, and tell me how to shade. I can't shade.
