FurPiled.com (formerly Antropomorfos.org) was an Argentininan furry and yiffy image board with a tag and search system.

History
The site was created on June 04, 2008 as a general furry image board under the name Antropomorfos.org. It stayed in this format until July 20, 2008, when the administrators took the server offline and reopen it as a furry community with more varied content for its online users such as a forum, a user group page, and a news section, among others.

By July 24th, the site was rolled back to its original use and content.

Sadly, the site has been offline since late March of 2011 with no word as to when if ever it will be working again.

Update as of April 20, 2011: furpiled.com leads to a 403 Forbidden error page, which could indicate it is under construction in preparation to open once more.

Update as of September 19, 2011: visiting furpiled.com results in being asked for username and password, and without a username a guest gets a 401 Authorization Required error page.

As of Dec 2014, the site no longer prompts for a username, and appears to be fully offline.

Policies and content
Uploading of photographic child pornography or bestiality pornography media was not permitted, and uploading of images from paysites was discouraged, with the exception of a few images (usually for publicity purposes).

People must have had a FurPiled account to upload images to FurPiled.

Additionally, any post could be deleted without notice if they failed to meet a standard of quality as determined by the moderators (i.e. poorly drawn or badly compressed art).

Images could be filtered by placing ratings (i.e. rating:e) on the tag blacklist.

Server, software and features
FurPiled.com ran a Shimmie2 derivative whith a custom template as well as some bugfixes and custom created add ons.

Folksonomy
It utilized folksonomy, or collaborative user tagging, as a means of identifying and narrowing classification of images, and, unlike most Wakaba-based imageboards such as fchan:


 * did not have separate boards for particular art topics
 * did not have threads
 * did not encourage reposting of previously-posted images which have been deleted along with their threads by imageboard moderators (rather, images are extensively archived)

Narrowing of images by user-ascribed tags was done through combining tags in URLs (such as  http://www.furpiled.com/post/list/clean+tiger/1  or  http://www.furpiled.com/post/list/clean+tiger+-male/1 , the latter of which was for subtracting images which contain "male").

Client software
In November, 10th 2008 the second version of the Suite were released - then under the new Name FurPiled Suite (formerly Antropomorfos Suite).

RSS and Cooliris
FurPiled.com utilized RSS for syndication of images by tag or tag combination. It also used Cooliris as a way to display the most recently posted and RSS-syndicated images within a graphics-rich setting. The Cooliris plugin is only available for Internet Explorer, Safari and Mozilla Firefox on Windows, Mac OS X and iPhone OS.
