Perhaps use internet's universal emoticons in Furry Network?

Back in 2010 when Oskenso began his initial programming for a furry social networking site, I mentioned to him that intertwining IC with OOC would be an amazing idea. Uplifting our fursonas is something the fandom has always had a propensity for, but such tradition was interrupted when FA followed the MySpace trend at the time. So I'm very glad to see that FurryNetwork includes the one-user/multiple-character login system that Oski originally programmed. I can't help but think that the code base is the same due to my influence... :) But I digress!

I propose that we expand upon that initial idea and allow for both IC and OOC profile information fields to be included on our character profiles, just like MUCKs and F-List do. It will help to allow us to continue the tradition of partaking in a world and subculture which we create for ourselves rather than simply being mundane hyoomans who like art, stories, music and photography of a particular genre.

Just a thought! :)

I'd like to suggest the ability to upload an image from your dropbox account. Not via URL, because that would be easily abused, but add a hook into the Dropbox API that allows you to add a file or folder found in your dropbox.

https://www.dropbox.com/developers

I'm not sure if that's the URL you'd need or not. Just like a site that lets you login with google, there's a method for doing this with Dropbox and allowing the site to access files. I believe you can even make it request read only access or maybe even better, make it request access to a specific folder only. (Like, you could create an FN folder in the main Dropbox folder, so that any files there are available to upload on FN when you load the upload section and click "from dropbox".)

I'm just wondering if they are i remember Furaffinity having a very strict policy on that and you guys seem more lax with your more mature pics. I'm not against murrsuit pics I'm just curious if its something you guys would allow?

This has to be done because the community will only be focused towards those whom have viewership and those whom want to display their artwork will possibly won't get any views due to the separate sections, even the 'fresh' section displays all art and it doesn't make any sense to showcase all art in this section.

So to make more sense of this, you guys will have to remove the Popular and Fresh sections and instead create either a front page for new submissions or create a 'Browse' category in order to let others look at 'ALL' images.

I liked the Idea from Deviantart to use´and gain points for usage like giving people lamas or such.

It would be nice if browsing the gallery or favoring artwork or anything else would give you points so you can for example use this to encourage a specific artist to be more active / draw more or whatever. (the intention of the DA Lama i suppose)

Maybe there could be more interesting stuff besides that i can't come up with right now though :)

Also would work good a s micro transaction items you can buy for other artists to show your appreciation. This supports the Site and the artist which is a good deal i guess.

Like becoming lama of the week or whatever : 3c

how about implementing telegram messager instead of traditional PM's? it would popularize this thing and also made communication much more easier... let me know if this idea even makes any sense

Seems pretty reasonable to me, since so many people are whining about cub porn. Eyah, just shut down the entire site and move back to FA, since you all love it so much.

The latest episode of FA Security Theater showed once again the fundamental flaws with passwords.

tl;dr: send a token embedded in a URL by email, or the token by SMS, instead of requiring passwords. Medium is actually a good proof of concept for this. You can log in just by putting in your email address. They email a link, you click, and you're in. Email remains a weak link, but that was already the case. It'll matter less as more people adopt two-factor authentication for their email accounts.

What about some place on the website where you can ask for a role play? Or you could "register" yourself on there as a Role Player who can be asked for Role Play.

That would eliminate the strongest argument against the other RolePlay-idea here, since the website won't be immediately associated with a pure-Role-Playing-website. What do you think?
