Bleatr

Bleatr was an art commissioning site that hosted a variety of furry artists, and allowed them to create auctions and take and manage commissions all handled on site.

History and purpose
Bleatr went live in October 2015 after panels in Rocky Mountain Fur Con that year, and a year of development.

The site's goal of an easy and universal way of creating commissions was thought of after many peoples troubles of both finding an artist, and just not getting commissions from commissioners. Being a commissioning system, it focuses on displaying open artists first, then everything else. Bleatr has been at Rocky Mountain fur con in 2015, 2016; Anthrocon 2016, Furry Weekend Atlanta 2016, 2017 and Midwest FurFest 2016, 2017.

Bleatr updated on a rapid release cycle, allowing releases to contain new features as soon as they were tested, though with the downside of bugs appearing from time to time.
