==History==
"SilverAngel Creations", was the original company name, by the original founder ''Amethyst Crystal''. Due to certain disagreements with partners, the company disbanded. ''Amethyst Crystal'' then re-established the company under the new, current name: "Furry Fashion". Officially, the Furry Fashion has commenced operations in May, 2007. Since then, Furry Fashion has also split into different subdivisions, which offer varied services under the parent company.

==Parent Company & Subdivisions==
After the co-founding of Furry Fashion and its growth over the years, the company split itself into subdivisions to expedite its workflow and service organization. The current subdivisions are: Furever Enchanted and Mystifursia; alongside the parent, Furry Fashion. In terms of employment, Furry Fashion offers a wide range of jobs. All staff members receive base pay, as well as tips. Such jobs include: models, deejays, hosts and dancers.

===Furry Fashion===
Furry Fashion occupies one complete "sim", holding the main store of Furry Fashion, commonly referred to as "FF" by staff and regulars. The store is comprised of six floors, offering an estimated 4000 items for sale, at its current design<ref>[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Furry%20Fashion/120/188/23 "Furry Fashion Store ~Where Awesome Has A Tail!"]. Second Life Locations (SLURL). Retrieved 2011-02-12.</ref>. The current floor plan of the Furry Fashion store follows as such:

:*'''Ground Floor:''' The welcome area (lobby) when first entering the 'sim". It also comprises of: the "Digital Distractions Art Gallery", "Camping Spots", Jewelry and Avatars/Avatar Modifications (by several third-party vendors). Staff members and voluntary helpers are also stationed here.
:*'''First Floor:''' Hair, Wings, Unisex accessories and clothing, and Body art departments.
:*'''Second Floor:''' Female clothing department.
:*'''Third floor:''' Male clothing department.
:*'''Fourth floor:''' Furniture, Poses and animations, and Miscellaneous departments.
:*'''Fifth Floor:''' This floor, unlike the others, features only a discount area.

===Furever Enchanted===
Furever Enchanted was founded as a "sim" to provide residential areas for furs<ref>[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Furever%20Enchanted/139/28/23 "Furever Enchanted Land Rentals"]. Second Life Locations (SLURL). Retrieved 2011-02-12.</ref>. It follows a rural theme of grassy terrain and water. The "sim" is divided into "land parcels" which are available for rent with a specific "item quota limit". Furever Enchanted also features its own managers (''Ruu Resident'' as Lead Manager) and security (''EffOhEx Pawpad'' as Head of Security) for its residents as well.

===Mystifursia===
Mystifursia was another "sim", founded to initially provide an event club, now know as: "Club Mystique"<ref>[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Mystifursia/136/214/23 "~FF~ Club Mystique & Furry Mall"]. Second Life Locations (SLURL). Retrieved 2011-02-12.</ref>. The club is currently situated in the basement floor of a large castle, built in the middle of the "sim". Club events run daily, usually around, 2PM PST and 8 PM PST. As development continued, the "sim" became host to several other key areas: the FF Furry Mall, the FE Garden and the FF Sandbox.

:*'''FF Furry Mall''' is a large open mall, with numerous third-party vendors and store owners, in three varied configurations. Resellers are not permitted to rent a store here, due to Furry Fashion's policy: ''to support original creators''. The mall, also offers free locations, for third-party avatar vendors.
:*'''FE Garden''' is a quiet garden, opened to the general public. It's filled with ''cuddles and dances'' (pose animations within Second Life), and serves for furs who want to get away and relax with friends or a loved ones.
:*'''FF Sandbox ''' is a designated area for furs to ''rezz'' (create, in Second Life lingo) objects and items for use or un-packaging. Due to security constraints, only furs donning the Furry Fashion "group tag" are allowed such permissions. Rules have also been put in place by the management to prevent vandalism or abuse.

==Corporate Affairs==
Recently, a Second Life account, by the name of ''FurryFashion Resident'', has used the Furry Fashion branding in a ''scam scheme''. As this person is not affiliated with Furry Fashion in any way, shape or form; any furs encountering such a person, should report such discrepancies, both to the Furry Fashion management and the Second Life administration, when possible.

Talk:Furry Fashion

2011-02-13T12:41:12Z

DANamic: Replied to GingerM

I have some concerns about parts of this article; they appear to me to verge on commercial advertisement for the sim. --[[GingerM]] ([[User_talk:GingerM|Leave me a message]]) 01:10, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

==Suggestions==
(also posted to [[User:Amethysia|Amethysia]]'s [[User_talk:Amethysia|talk]] page)
*Instead of saying 'around' xx number of staff members and yy number of members in the community, I suggest something like "As of <<date>>, FF employs x furs, and has a customer base of y." References could be a link to the group information on www.secondlife.com.
*Regarding the claim of being probably the largest store, I'd suggest an article link from a reviewer or something, if you have one?
*Digital Distractions - is that an artist or a business, and would there be a website or an in-world SLURL? Are they big enough or furry-oriented enough that a Wikifur article might be justified? Also, SLURLs for the sims might be a good idea, too, in the External Links section at the bottom of the article. Also, if any of the other staff have Wikifur accounts, it would be a good idea to provide wiki links to their User:Talk pages to make it easier to contact them.
All in all, I think there's some very good information here, and I look forward to seeing more about it as you continue!--[[GingerM]] ([[User_talk:GingerM|Leave me a message]]) 03:46, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
:Hi there GingerM. I've been called on by Amethysia to help neutralise and reformat her article. I've agreed with your points and taken into account my own Wikipedia editing experience to reformat the article.
:*I've overcome the first issue by referencing the said sentence, with a source and access date (you can see this under "References"). That should provide the much needed timestamp thereoff.
:*As for the claim, a review will be posted and cited soon in the source. Second Life does not provide such data upfront, but does have some backend statistics, unfortunately, those require administrative rights to access, so citing them here would be redundant.
:*Digital Distractions is another, standalone company in Second Life. So as for the validity of it needing its own wiki article, is pretty much up to its current owner (as for now, I've removed the [[]]). As for the other staff members, they do not currently have such accounts, or at least have no talk pages to link back to, and it would be a little demanding to insist they activate such mediums. Anyhow, if they do activate their talk pages, further edits would be done to incorporate them.
:I hope my edits and formatting have met your wiki standards. Should there be anymore recommendations, I'd be happy to consider and apply as accordingly.--[[User:DANamic|Danamic Rhapsodos]] 12:41, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
