As soon as Ende announced a few slots, I pounced on the opportunity.. you can see why. ^_^ I ought to drop into FA again sometime, and see if I've got links waiting for the full size versions.. ! (Not so keen on returning there "full time", as it were, given the way the site's policies have degenerated over the years - SoFurry's considerably more reasonable)
Adorable Space Bunny is Adorable!
He does do Cute so very, very well. ^_^ Sometime, before too much longer, I really ought to have a new commission done - I think that one's the most recent! Still, in the meantime, I content myself with self-portraiture in SL, where I can vary my wardrobe much more affordably than in RL, and of course, enjoy a much more lapine form. ^_^
My issues with FA are less to do with it's policies, and more to do with it's functioning. It's turned into hardly running slop recently for some reason, more so on my Mac with Safari.
Well, FA's code, at this point, probably resembles the state of classic Mac OS' source, before the great Unix shift. =:D I can't say I've noticed anything special regarding performance, but then, I tend to just check FA for transformation images and nothing more, so all I see is a page or two of thumbnails, and then load up the few that interest me. (Mostly using OmniWeb, which sits on top of WebKit, with the nightly of WebKit/Safari for the occasional site that requires cross-site cookies or similarly lax permissions. I suppose I'll have to leave OW at some point, given it's in maintenance-only mode, but I'd really miss features like per-site preferences, workspaces, and scrollable vertical tabs with thumbnails. The latter still seems unique to OW, curiously - it's by far my favorite tabs implementation)
With FA each time I click on a link or a thumbnail it's a game of russian roulette as to if it will or won't send a page request back. It mostly seems to be that Safari and FA don't get along but I've had the same issue with chrome. I haven't got a issue with my internet connection (that seems fine, as other pages access fine while FA stalls). I think that I've had the same issue when using it with Opera and safari on my PC.

Given the way that FA is run behind the scenes I am not really that surprised that it would be riddled with technical issues. At least the server isn't going down constantly. It's a minor improvement at least.
I was just kind of mentally battening the hatches for FurAffinity's performance after its most recent set of code changes and alterations and I guess they figured two weeks without a glitch was too long to leave the servers up anyway.

Quite a cute picture, though I do worry about practical matters like having to dash off to the bathroom in wardrobe like that. On the other paw it's probably not inherently worse than a zentai, is it?
