'''Furs For Christ''', formerly known as '''Furrs Fur Christ''' (also known as '''FFC'''), is a small community geared toward [[Christian furries]] and [[anthropomorphic]] artists.

== History ==

Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]], who hosted the site herself starting in 2005. FFC slowly and steadily grew in membership, briefly hosting an art gallery.

In October 2011, FFC moved to a new domain, FursForChrist.com, with a new name, forum, and image gallery as well as social networking capabilities. During the move, some of the moderators and leadership were shuffled, with the existing forum remaining open as an archive until the present date. The new forum was plagued with issues during the upgrade due to various technical limitations imposed by the social software. A second move was then planned, to more stable software. In February 2012, administrators Razi, Aidyn, Firekeeper, and Eagle's Flight stepped down from their posts, with Ian the Gecko, Sleet, and Hunter the Dog taking their places. About 2 months later, the new administration went ahead with the second move, wiping the previous forum and replacing it with one that is powered by phpBB3.

In time, Razi reliquinshed control of FFC entirely, passing hosting duties on to the new administration. The forums were down for a significant period while all the data was migrated to a new server, and as of August 2013 reappeared and are up and running smoothly again.

== Stated goals ==

FFC's original mandate was a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues. It also housed a small, clean anthropomorphic art gallery which was not limited to “religious” art and welcomed deep, non-Christian, or non-anthropomorphic material as well.

FFC is meant to be a warm and welcoming place. Though it is a forum aimed specifically at Christians, it accepts non-Christian members warmly (even one of the global mods identifies as agnostic), and does not discriminate against any Christian denominations, different world religions, or agnosticism/atheism. And though it is a forum aimed specifically at furries, it has also in the past had many non-furry members. Anybody who is interested in Christian and/or furry topics is welcome to come and be a part of the community, provided they follow the rules and live in peaceful coexistence.

It is the current administration's policy that FFC is NOT an online church, and its admins/mods are NOT to be considered spiritual leaders. Neither does FFC have any official creeds or doctrines. Admins and mods are there to keep the peace and take care of site-specific issues; they are not preachers or teachers, simply brothers and sisters in Christ.

== Activism ==

FFC members attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and RMFC again in 2013. Their activities included Bible studies, attending panels, official Sunday worship services, and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Controversy ==

*In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on [[Cracked.com]]'s '''''WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web''''' list<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list]</ref>, above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls<ref>http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602</ref>.

*In October 21, 2007, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its '''''Weekend Web''''' article<ref>[http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]</ref>. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

*On and off throughout the existence of the site, its members have struggled with how to address the issue of homosexuality in the fandom. In the past, FFC took a hard-line stance against homosexuality, condemning it as sin. At the present time, many of its members and admins/mods are openly LGBTQ or strong LGBTQ allies. ALL viewpoints are welcome on the forum, no matter how unpopular, as long as members remain respectful and follow the forum rules in expressing them. FFC strives to be a safe space for both LGBTQ members and anti-gay Christians.

{{Rocky Mountain Fur Con}}
'''Rocky Mountain Fur Con''', often abbreviated RMFC, is an annual furry [[convention]] that takes place in [[Wikipedia:Denver, Colorado|Denver, Colorado]] and celebrates anthropomorphics.

Elliott's Live Events

2012-08-01T21:42:14Z

IantheGecko: 2012 dates

{{Cleanup-copyedit}}

'''Elliott's Live Events''' is the umbrella name for a group of events hosted by [[King Elliott Ingonyama the First]]. While not specifically Furry Events, they draw many members of the Furry Community. With guests from the Anime, Furry and Science Fiction Communities, these events have an eclectic crowd.

==Happenings==

His Majesty hosts three types of events: Royal Festivals, Castle Cotillions, and Local Events.

==The King's Royal Festivals==

These events are His Majesty's largest functions. Held once a year (spring), they are hosted at a hotel in Central Florida, these are three days long and include special events (such as a private parties at Orlando's Wet 'n Wild water park) and concerts. These events have a charity component, being used to support various of King Elliott's Favorite Charities. In recognition of their role in building community, these events also include a space for artisans to display and sell their wares. Advance registration is required.

===Elliott's Spring Gathering===
The first Elliott's Spring Gathering was held 28 April, 2007. There were 130 attendees, with over 40 fursuits. King Elliott provided soft drinks and dinner for all his guests.

The second Elliott's Spring Gathering took place 9-11 May, 2008. This was a 3 day event, hosted at the Radisson World Gate Hotel. Rooms were available for $75 a night. In addition to the standard activities provided, King Elliott hosted a private party for his guests at Orlando's Wet 'n Wild water park on Friday, and a concert by Rosie Ledet and the Zydeco Playboys on Saturday evening. Over 20 Furry Artisans participated in Elliott's Spring Gathering's artists' and dealers' room, including: Art Decade, Cooner, Gideon, Kahmari, Koda, Likeshine, Marci McAdams, Meesh, Painted Dog, Redic Nomad, Seel, Silver Fenrir, Solid Asp, Spunky Wulf, The RGHU, among others.

Guests attended from all over the world with a group of 3 attending from Perth, Australia.

King Elliott announced that the Radisson World Gate will once again host Elliott's Spring Gathering, but this time will offer a room rate of $45 for the first 45 rooms and $60 a night for all others. Special activities for this event include another private party at Orlando's Wet 'n Wild water park and another at Kissimmee's Fun Spot USA (these activities are included with event registration). Elliott's Spring Gathering 2009 will take place 29-31 May, 2009. This year's event benefits Conservators' Center, Inc., a North Carolina Animal Rescue and Education foundation.

King Elliott's Spring Gathering will be held at the Radisson World Gate for the third year. Rooms are $60 a night. Conservator's Center, Inc. will once again be His Majesty's chosen charity. Special Events will again include: Go Karting and Miniature Golf (with lunch included) at Fun Spot USA on Friday, Breakfast on Sunday and a private party at Wet 'n Wild (including dinner). ESG 2010 will be held 21-23 May. The event is $15 in advance ($25 at the door) for all three days including all special events. Individual days are more expensive (King Elliott wishes to encourage participation by guests in the entire event and prices things accordingly).

For more information see: [https://ELE.FurryHost.com/ESG-2010 Elliott's Spring Gathering]

* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2010]] was held on 21-23 May.
* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2011]] is scheduled for 20 - 22 May.
* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2012]] is tentatively scheduled for 18 - 20 May.

===Elliott's Summer Celebration===
Elliott's Summer Celebration 2007 was held 18 August 2007, starting at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. 188 guests attended from over 15 states, as well as Australia.<ref>[https://ele.furryhost.com/node/12 Thank You to All Who Attended Elliott's Summer Gathering.] (August 21, 2007)</ref> Over 50 fursuiters attended (quite a surprise given that it was held outdoors in August in Florida).

The second Elliott's Summer Celebration is scheduled for 9-10 August, 2008. Once again, this is event will take place over two days, and will include Lunch, Dinner and Breakfast.

==The King's Castle Cotillions==

While smaller than his Festivals, King Elliott's Castle Cotillions are still quite impressive. Held at his Castle in Central Florida, these take place every fall and winter. His Majesty provides a full gourmet lunch, dinner and breakfast, as well as a video arcade, dance floor with DJ, artists' lounge, and a headless lounge for fursuiting guests. While open to all, these are more targeted to guests in the local area. Advance registration is required.

===Elliott's Winter Carnival===
The first Elliott's Winter Carnival was held 13 January, 2007. There were 60 attendees, with over 20 [[fursuit]]s. King Elliott provided soft drinks and dinner for all his guests.

The second Elliott's Winter Carnival was scheduled for 12-13 January 2008. As with Elliott's Fall Festival, the event took place over two days, and included three meals. In spite of bad weather, 198 guests attended.

===Elliott's Fall Festival===
Elliott's Fall Festival was held on 20-21 October, 2007. With 151 guests from around the U.S., this two day party featured lunch and dinner cooked by Orlando's own Ty-yen as well as Volleyball, Badminton, Movies, an artists' lounge and a video arcade.

Elliott's Fall Festival 2008 is scheduled for 25-26 October, 2008.

* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2009]] was held on 31 October - 1 November.
* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2010]] was held on 23 - 24 October.
* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2011]] is scheduled for 22 - 23 October.
* [[Elliott's Fall Festival 2012]] is scheduled for 27 - 28 October.

==The King's Local Events==

King Elliott understands that not everyone can make it to Central Florida and so he has decided to bring his events to other realms. Starting this July, His Majesty will be announcing local events around the United States. Co-hosted by local residents, these will enable His Majesty to bring his largess to you.
There are four scheduled events held quarterly that take place in metro [[Orlando]], Florida, and many others (some scheduled, some impromptu) that occur in other places. The quarterly events are: Elliott's Winter Carnival, Elliott's Spring Gathering, Elliott's Summer Celebration, and Elliott's Fall Festival. These events feature an [[artist]]s' lounge, a dance floor, a dinner, a [[headless lounge]], outdoor activities, a series of movies, a video game arcade, and a welcoming social environment for furry fans and their friends. These events are open to all, with no age restriction and welcome both [[furry fans]] and their friends, however pre-registration is required.

==Smaller events==
In addition to these longer, more formal events, His Majesty has hosted several smaller events. Unlike his four longer and more formal events, these have taken place at other conventions. King Elliott's Pizza in the [[Zoo]] took place on Sunday, 8 July 2007, providing pizza to around 200 [[Anthrocon 2007]] attendees. King Elliott's Pizza Feast at [[Midwest Furfest 2007]] served 85 of Chicagoland's famous Gino's pizzas to around 600 guests in the MFF [[con-suite]]. His Majesty has also hosted events at Comic Con, Fanime, Bay Con (one of the oldest Science Fiction Conventions) and many other conventions.

Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]], who hosts the site herself, in 2005. FFC slowly and steadily grew in membership, briefly hosting an art gallery.

In October 2011, FFC moved to a new domain, FursForChrist.com, with a new name, forum, and image gallery as well as social networking capabilities. During the move, some of the moderators and leadership were shuffled, with the existing forum remaining open as an archive until the present date. The new forum was plagued with issues during the upgrade due to various technical limitations imposed by the social software. A second move was then planned to move to a more stable software. In February 2012, administrators Razi, Aidyn, Firekeeper, and Eagle's Flight stepped down from their posts, with Ian the Gecko, Sleet, and Hunter the Dog taking their places. About 2 months later, the new administration went ahead with the second move, wiping the previous forum and replacing it with one that is powered by phpBB3.

== Stated goals ==

FFC's original mandate was a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues. It also housed a small, clean anthropomorphic art gallery which was not limited to “religious” art and welcomed deep, non-Christian, non-anthropomorphic material as well.

== Activism ==

FFC members attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Their activities included Bible studies, a Sunday service, attending panels and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Controversy ==

*In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on [[Cracked.com]]'s '''''WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web''''' list<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list]</ref>, above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls<ref>http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602</ref>.

*In October 21, 2007, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its '''''Weekend Web''''' article<ref>[http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]</ref>. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

IantheGecko:

== Explanation after edit comment ==
Wanted to start of the discussion page here since someone decided to post a direct jibe to me in the edit history. First of all, I do not work for FFC, but I am staff on other Christian communities. We don't see FFC as competition, although we do often question their competency. Let me attempt to clarify the accusations in the edit statement.

: Wolfin, you lie. There's nothing about disallowing a consensus or challenging the moral authority of the forum's leadership. You're the only other furry religious community who's spoken up about it. -- [[User: IantheGecko]]

So, first of all this isn't a lie; and, consensus is almost always disallowed under both the "All views, no matter how contrary to one's own, must be treated with respect." [http://www.fursforchrist.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=60&id=4881&Itemid=0 rule] and the "Be willing to listen with understanding and in the end "agree to disagree."" [http://www.fursforchrist.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=showcat&catid=25&Itemid=0 rules]. I would invite you to show where this has ever allowed a full consensus to be reached. This may not even be a bad thing; but, it is an actual fact. Also; the serious discussion being the most actice forum by far is also factual; and I've added references for both.

As for challenging forum staff, there is "Do not publicly question the competence of our staff, unless in the Bug Reports/Site Suggestions forum. Either use that forum or a private message to a higher-up if you have any concerns with a staff member." also in the forum rules; I've now altered the sentence in question to be clearer and hopefully address this issues. Remember that this /is/ supposed to be a non-biased medium and you cannot just remove factual material because it may cast an unpleasant light; it's important there be balance. Most of the communities I represent don't even have a full article here, so, it's not like I'd want to redirect attention. Hopefully this clarifies the matter. --[[User:Wolfin|Wolfin]] 22:00, 26 January 2012 (EST)

: OK, I'll concede the staff competence point, but the rules say nothing about challenging the mods's moral authority. I quote Sleet: "this does not mean you aren't allowed to disagree with a moderator in a controversial thread. When it comes to that kind of thing, a moderator is no different than any other user. However, if a moderator tells you something as a moderator, failure to comply can result in disciplinary action. This includes but is not limited to being told to calm down, stay on topic, or change offensive information in your profile." Furthermore, you were the only "other ministry" to complain about our site, on the site. Furs of Faith, the U&G Pub, Open Arms, & FurryChristians haven't said anything about it, nor has Oren, so it's a personal issue you have with us. And that too keeps the article from being neutral. [[User:IantheGecko|IantheGecko]] 23:47, 26 January 2012 (EST)
:: I'm just shocked you decided to include two (mostly) dead ministries and open arms in that list... that's pretty pure desperation. I'll leave it be for now and have someone else who can be more assured of impartiality look over it. --[[User:Wolfin|Wolfin]] 00:22, 27 January 2012 (EST)

'''Furs For Christ''', formerly known as '''Furrs Fur Christ''' (also known as '''FFC'''), is a small community geared for [[Christian furries]] and [[anthropomorphic]] artists.

== History ==
Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]] who hosts the site herself. The forums are also presently moderated by [[Ian the Gecko]], [[Gypsi-Rae Leonine]], and [[Sleet]].

In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list]</ref>, above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls<ref>http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602</ref>. Later that year, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its Weekend Web article<ref>[http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]</ref>. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

== Activism ==

FFC members as a group attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Their activities included Bible studies, a Sunday service, attending panels and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Present Day ==

In October 2011, FFC moved to a new domain, FursForChrist.com, with a new name, forum, and image gallery as well as social networking capabilities. During the move, some of the moderators and leadership were shuffled, with the existing forum remaining open as an archive until present date. The current forum has been plagued with issues during the upgrade due to various technical limitations imposed by the social software. At one point a second move was planned to move to a more stable software<ref>[http://www.fursforchrist.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=60&id=2508&Itemid=0 Downtime in the next few days for site maintenance]</ref>; however, this was later scrapped due to availability issues of admins and the concern that the community may not survive a second move.

FFC's original mandate was a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues. It also houses a small, clean anthropomorphic art gallery which is not limited to “religious” art and welcomes deep, non-Christian, non-anthropomorphic material as well. Since the move to the new domain, users can also create custom profiles and join private discussion groups as an alternative to [[Wikipedia:Facebook|Facebook]] and other furry social networks.

'''Furs For Christ''', formerly known as '''Furrs Fur Christ''' (also known as '''FFC'''), is a small community geared for [[Christian furries]] and [[anthropomorphic]] artists.

== History ==
Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]] who hosts the site herself. The forums are also presently moderated by [[Ian the Gecko]], [[Gypsi-Rae Leonine]], and [[Sleet]].

In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list]</ref>, above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls<ref>[http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602]</ref>. Later that year, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its Weekend Web article<ref>[http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]</ref>. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

== Activism ==

FFC members as a group attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Their activities included Bible studies, a Sunday service, attending panels and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Present Day ==

In October 2011, FFC moved to a new domain, FursForChrist.com, with a new name, forum, and image gallery as well as social networking capabilities. During the move, some of the moderators and leadership were shuffled, with the existing forum remaining open as an archive until present date. The current forum has been plagued with issues during the upgrade due to various technical limitations imposed by the social software. At one point a second move was planned to move to a more stable software<ref>[http://www.fursforchrist.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=60&id=2508&Itemid=0 Downtime in the next few days for site maintenance]</ref>; however, this was later scrapped due to availability issues of admins and the concern that the community may not survive a second move.

FFC's original mandate was a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues. It also houses a small, clean anthropomorphic art gallery which is not limited to “religious” art and welcomes deep, non-Christian, non-anthropomorphic material as well. Since the move to the new domain, users can also create custom profiles and join private discussion groups as an alternative to [[Wikipedia:Facebook|Facebook]] and other furry social networks.

Ashen Fox

2009-05-06T21:22:54Z

IantheGecko: replaced defunct God's Creatures with FFC

'''Ashen Fox''' is the pseudonym of artist '''Curtis Palmer'''. Mostly self-taught, he has been doodling since childhood, though his primary talent is in music. He has been drawing with much greater frequency ever since taking on pencilling duties for the webcomic ''[[Tommy and PJ|Tommy & PJ]]'' in September of 2004. He first learned of the existence of [[furry fandom]] by way of the internet. Like many others, he had envisioned characters combining human and animal traits but had never met another artist with the same interests, and had no access to furry publications up until that time.

Ashen joined the java-based ''Lobby'' chatroom on [[FurNation]] in its final days before it was forced to move to another chat server, and caught a glimpse of some of the earliest entries to [[Yerf]] when it was still the [[Squeeky Clean Furry Archive]] or [[SCFA]]. He has also been writing mostly science fiction since high school, though his only published credits to date are a short story called ''Canis Major''

which appeared in the [[AnthroCon 2005]] conbook, and his Masters thesis, ''The Forgotten Races'' (copyright 2005 Texas Tech University Press).

A [[Christian Furs|Christian]], Ashen Fox belongs to such groups as [[The Unicorn and Gryphon]], [[Furrs Fur Christ]], and [[Christian Furry Fellowship]].

== The character ==
Ashen Fox is also an avatar of Ashen Fox's personality. He is an [[Anthropomorphic|anthro]] [[grey fox]] character, described in detail in the artist's [[LiveJournal]]. He has appeared in a couple of short stories or anecdotes, and has also made cameo appearances in ''Tommy and PJ''.

IantheGecko: Removed spam

[[Image:VelkyroTiger MidwestFurfest2006.jpg|right|thumb|200px|One of Snap E. Tiger's fursuits, Velkyro Tiger at [[Midwest Furfest 2006]]]]

'''Snap E. Tiger''' (real name '''Eric Stevens''') is a [[fursuiter]] who lives in [[Wikipedia:Omaha, Nebraska|Omaha, Nebraska]], USA. His [[fursona]] is a [[tiger]].

==Origin==
Snap E. entered [[furry fandom]] around 1999 after seeing some [[furry art]] and seeking out other [[furries]] on the internet. His lifelong love of big cat species lead to him adopting a tiger [[phenotype]]. His fursona name came from his side business, Snap E. Video.

==Costuming==
Snap E. owns and wears several fursuits, including several he has built himself.<ref>Snap E. Tiger at the [http://tinyurl.com/ygarq8 Fursuit Database]</ref>
* '''Tsigoti''' (a black tiger who wears native American garb)
* '''CounterSnap''' (a black tiger with gray stripes and a mohawk)
* '''Tutsihusi''' (a ghost tiger, black with grey stripes)
* '''Velkro Tiger 1''' and '''Velkro Tiger 2''' (white tigers with a variety of swappable coloured stripes)
* '''Snapd Werepoodle''' (a pink 6'8" [[poodle]])

Snap E. also built Clorox the white lion fursuit, owned by [[Firepup]].
==Media==
Snap E. has made several appearances in the media. He was interviewed for the April 2001 ''Omaha World-Herald'' article "[[Finding His Inner Tiger]]", and in May of the same year the letters column of ''[[Vanity Fair]]'' included a letter from Snap E. commenting on the "Pleasures of the Fur" article from that magazine's March edition.

Snap E. was also filmed for the 2003 TLC documentary ''[[Animal Imitators]]'', footage from which was used in an in a episode of ''[[Weird, True and Freaky - Humanimals]]'' on Animal Planet.

==Conventions==
Snap E. has attended several conventions dating back to [[Midwest Furfest 2000]]. He has been a panelist and con staff for several conventions. His most recent involvement was with [[RCFM]] in 2008 working with the charity auction and variety show.

==Occupations and Hobbies==
Snap E.'s current profession is a truck driver for Panera Bread delivering fresh dough daily. Before that, he worked at the [[wikipedia:Henry Doorly Zoo|Henry Doorly Zoo]] for five years, and owned a side business, Snap E. Video, where he did video editing and production.
When he's not busy on the road, Snap E. enjoys bowling, golfing, tennis, hiking, and pretty much anything that involves the outdoors.

A lifelong fan of Gecko Hawaii and Maui and Sons clothes, Ian visited his first furry site, [[Kurisu]]'s homepage, sometime in 2002 while looking for fanart. In April 2005 he joined [[Furrs Fur Christ]] and has since become a moderator and "master recruiter", inviting friends from other forums to join. Although Ian is not a "furry artist" (his artistic talents are limited to photomanipulations and the occasional poem), he enjoys RPing and chit-chatting just the same. So far the only conventions he has attended are the first two years of [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] in Denver, Colorado, at which he led small Christian fellowship meets on Sunday mornings. Outside of furry, Ian's interests include theatre, electronic music, and trivia games.

In 2008 Ian made a guest appearance in ''[[Oren's Monastery]]'' episodes #154 & #155, both of which were based on actual conversations between him and [[Oren Otter]] at the AuroraFurs meet. [http://www.taur.net/~ottercomics/monastery/archive/phparchive.php?strip=154]

Oren Otter

2008-12-09T23:52:27Z

IantheGecko: fixed OtterTunes stuff

'''Oren Otter''' (or '''Oren the Otter''', a.k.a. '''Eric Vary''') is a story writer and (mostly comic) artist, focusing on the topic of [[transformation]]. He is creator of ''[[The Changing Workplace]]'', ''[[Oren's Monastery]]'' and ''[[Otter Island]]'', among many others.

A prolific writer and cartoonist, Oren's first comic to appear online, ''[[The Changing Workplace]]'', was based on people at ''[[TSA]]'' as well as references to ''[[The Blind Pig]]'' or ''[[SCABS]]'' storylines and of course ''[[Metamor Keep]]''. His second major comic strip, ''Tommy and PJ'' (now drawn by Ashen Fox) was based on the highly complex ''Intense Universe'', which includes concepts for some of his lesser-known projects, as well. In addition to a very hectic comic strip schedule, he now heads up a webcomic syndicate called [[Moonbase Comics]], incliding [[Pandora Comics]] and is the proprietor of the [[Otterbooks Bookstore]]. He is also the operator of the [[webcomics emporium]], and is currently the head artist of [[Intense Comics]], a team of artists and operators who produce more than 20 comic titles including ''[[Room For One More]]'', ''[[Magimals]]'', ''[[Castle Horsetooth]]'', ''[[Orwell's Gas Station]]'' and ''[[The Fluffles]]''.

He also is a devout Christian, and uses ''[[Oren's Monastery]]'' as a kind of ministry outlet. In fact, this comic has given rise to the online church known as the [[Christian Furry Fellowship]], of which Oren is now the pastor. Oren also runs the Shoutcast radio station [[OtterTunes]].

As a character, Oren plays two roles. In Otter Island, Oren is an otter who has been transformed into a human by an evil tree-spirit and led to believe that he has always been human. As his memory slowly filters back, Oren dreams of his life as an otter and creates a comic strip in which he is one. After three years, Oren is returned to the Island and his original body.

In The Changing Workplace and other comics, Oren is a [[human]] who has been turned into an otter and despite finding the change an improvement, finds adapting to life as an otter challenging.

Oren's relatives include his daughter [[Amanda]], a [[plush toy]] who walks and talks and has her own series; his sister Felice who draws the comic ''[[Knight Shift]]''; Nephew [[Xan the Armadillo]]; his furry godchildren Frost, Martin, CJ and Kyle; and Lee Vary, author of [[Orwell's Gas Station]] about life in a [[Wikipedia:Truck Stop|truck stop]].

Furrs Fur Christ

IantheGecko: Con presences

[[Image:furrs_fur_christ.png|right|Furrs Fur Christ]]
'''Furrs Fur Christ''' (also known as '''FFC''') is a small community geared for [[Christian furries]] and [[anthropomorphic]] artists.

* '''Addresses''':
** '''Website''': http://furrsfurchrist.com/
** '''LiveJournal''': http://community.livejournal.com/furrsfurchrist/
** '''Second Life''': ?
* '''Founder''': [[Razi (animator)|Razi]]
* '''Administrators''': Razi, [[whaletrainer2002]], [[Eagle's Flight]]
* '''Ran from/to''': January 2005 - present
* '''Motto''': ''The Christian Furry Community Hub''

== History ==

Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]] who hosts and moderates the site herself. The forums are also moderated by [[Teresa]], [[Keith Torres]], [[IantheGecko]], [[Saturday Evening]], [[Whaletrainer2002]], [[Robin Flack]], and [[Eagle's Flight]].

In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on [http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list], above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls.[http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602]

Later that year, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its Weekend Web article [http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

FFC members as a group attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] in both 2007 and 2008. Their activities included Bible studies, a Sunday service, attending panels and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Resources ==

It contains a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues.

It also houses a clean anthropomorphic art gallery. The gallery is not limited to “religious” art and welcomes deep, non-Christian, non-anthropomorphic material as well.

The FurrsFurChrist group members can also be found on [[LiveJournal]] and [[Second Life]].

Rocky Mountain Fur Con

2008-04-21T15:20:29Z

IantheGecko: added link for Cubswork

'''Rocky Mountain Fur Con''' is an annual furry [[convention]] that takes place in [[Wikipedia:Denver, Colorado|Denver, Colorado]]. The first Rocky Mountain Fur Con took place from June 1 to 3, 2007 and was chaired by [[Kahuki Lairu]] with assistant chair [[Sorin Kat]].
{{Rocky Mountain Fur Con}}

==Origins==
Rocky Mountain Fur Con was first organized by the Mid-America Anthropomorphics and Arts Corporation to take place in June of 2006. However, when [[Anthrocon]] also announced its date for that same month, the decision was made to postpone the Rocky Mountain Fur Con's debut until 2007.

A new group by the name of Rocky Mountain Arts and Entertainment, Inc. was later formed to re-start Rocky Mountain Fur Con, but the website still lists Mid-America Anthropomorphics and Arts Corporation as of October 2006. As of December 30, 2006, no record of either of these corporations could be found in Lexis/Nexis or on the Colorado Secretary of State's database of registered corporations.

===[[Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2007]]===

Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2007 took place from June 1 to 3 at the [http://www.adamsmark.com/denver/ Denver Adam's Mark Hotel].

The final official attendance was 236.<ref name="Wow">[http://sorinkat.livejournal.com/16235.html "All I can say is wow"] from [[Sorin]]'s [[LiveJournal]] (4 June 2007)</ref>

===[[Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2008]]===
Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2008 is scheduled to take place the weekend of May 23-25 at [http://www.rockymountainfurcon.org/2008/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=16&Itemid=32 The Hyatt Regency in Denver].
