We as the staff have been thinking and to help assist with donations we will be doing the following.

For all donators of 80 dollars or more, starting this month you will receive the following:



For 50 dollars we will sent out a t-shirt with the same information. Images to follow shortly.

We also want to gauge a little interest and we may also make the hoodies and t-shirts available for purchase, without the premium member available for the range of 25 for t-shirt and 50 for hoodies with all proceeds going to the site fund. Let us know your thoughts on this idea of a ministore for raising funds as well.

For those donating, it would take approximately 3 - 4 weeks for the items to be ordered and delivered.

Thanks

Hi artists of all shapes and sizes!

Do you want to showcase your art/character, front and center, right on the header of our site? Wouldn't it be cool if there was a monthly theme for the site, showcasing the artwork from artists right here in Alberta?

If you're willing to donate artwork for monthly banners, your drawing/image/whatever could make it to the very top of our site! It can be voted on monthly by our users, and then the top of the site could look something like this each month! (please see thread in full view to see image):


* Disclaimer: I simply Googled the above image to use for this example. I do not know who the original artist is, nor did I ask permission to use this image in this example. This image will not be used on the actual site, and all images used on the site itself will be with permission from the artist.

Think this is pretty cool? Like I said, it's a great way to showcase your artwork and gain some followers on FA, etc. and a great way to demonstrate the artistic talent that the furry community in Alberta has! Where it says "artwork by someone on google" will simply say "artwork by FAusername" or whatever you want there!

There are only but a few guidelines:
- Try to keep your image high resolution. The image will be resized to fit accordingly.
- The image should exceed the AF logo by about 2 inches, in which afterwards the image will then fade back into the forum's normal colors.
- The AF logo should be easy to read with your image in the background
- Must be Safe for work (no porn!)
- You can use your own characters, even your own fursona if you want to!

In the next couple of days, I'll have a better real live example that I'll draw for the logo. Another thread will be posted on where you can submit your art!

We have a lot of great artistic talent out there in the Alberta furry community, let's show it off!

Gangsters & Gumshoes!

Hello,

As time goes on and as we further mature as a community, the following forum rules have been added (no rules were removed or existing ones modified):

Rule 5 (Personal Attacks/Harassment is prohibited): Appended; Alberta Furries is an LGBT Friendly Community. We support and accept gender equality across the site. Not everyone accepts LGBT and there are those who are not comfortable with it. We don’t mind, and everyone has their own opinions, but what is not acceptable is harassing people because of their gender or sexuality (and this goes for LGBTs bashing heterosexuals, too!); (Unrelated to LGBT, general) Never direct an insult towards anyone on the site, even sarcastically. Users will be reprimanded for this.

Rule 9 (Admins and Moderators): Appended; Sometimes there will be instances or scenarios where action may need to be taken for something not explicitly outlined in the forum rules. however can still morally be considered “wrong”. Staff will do their best to accommodate with their actions to make as fair of a judgement as possible.

Rule 11 (Media): It’s been appended that Alberta Furries is not affiliated with Wild Rose Critters.

Rule 15 (Anonymous Posting) [NEW]: In certain sections, users have the ability to post anonymously. Although this optional feature is available to allow a user to post privately without having their name associated with their post, please note that this does not grant you the privilege to break any of the aforementioned rules, and you will still be held responsible for your activity and posts as an anonymous poster. The administrative team has the ability to reveal the user of the anonymous posts on the forums, and take appropriate action if required to do so.

-----

Ultimately your access to Alberta Furries is a privilege, not a right, and the staff at Alberta Furries has final say regarding your access, but we will always do the best we can to accommodate and create a solution for...
