I unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on whether you think geekdom is hip these days) fall into 4 of that chart's categories: "anime fans who insist on subtitles", "video gamers", "roleplaying gamers" (though not in the past couple of months, since my friends and I can't decide who is doing the next campaign or when we have time to do it), and "amateur SF/fantasy artists" (and I stress the word amateur; it's mostly bad manga). Oh, and if you consider playing the highly-rated Pokemon games (which are fun RPGs if you look past the hatred and bias of the fad and not try to claim them as "the greatest games EVAR like the little kids will claim, along with DBZ being a good show) as "Pokemon fans over the age of six", then that makes five categories.
Hm...but according to this chart, as a video gamer, I hate myself as a roleplaying gamer...interesting... Oh, and back on topic, even mentioning furries scare me. Catgirls: yes.  Anthromorphic cats: no way.

Bernal's stuff is pretty and "professional." That, and why did you have to get his stuff from Sexy Fur? (Not that i'm complaining.  )

If you had read below those links, you would have seen that my user name us danball1976 at that forum. THose links are from a moderator at that forum, and his user name is Geeky1. Take a look at the rest of the thread. I originally started it, the thread is mainly an anime babe thread. Hmmm... I looked at that site. I wasn't aware that the website was more than just those photos  Not only that, the site is a pay site, I'm not willing to pay $11 a month to view some of those R and NC17 rated pictures

I've known some furries and I just find that whole scene disturbing.
But the thing that I dont get from the furtype website:
Wow. awful and stupid. |

I mentioned it by name, not linked!! Let the record reflect this 
Besides kusanagi-sama, your avatar is Sasha, one of Jeremy Bernal's more "recognizeable" characters. |

LOL, I only search for the website using his name. I also copied the avatar from the person who is using it at Short-Media.

I've never actually met any furries, so I don't really have much of an opinion on them. But the more pathetic ones that I've found over the Internet are always worth a laugh.
Anyways...has anyone really stayed at the Furtype and Purrsia websites long enough to actually read them? It hurts just as bad as the art. Here's a description of the plot and one of the characters for a (I'm assuming) one-shot comic they published: "A sterotypical bad guy tries to take over the world, while a trio of inept wannabe heroes set out to stop him." "BECCA-Your average anime chick who's doped up on sugar and part times as a magical girl." Or how about: KIRIKO-An adventuring martial artist whose looking for 3 magical toasters. MAYO-Another funloving traveller who just wants some chocolate. This is some serious Let's Make Keenspace Look Competent territory here. Some of these titles almost have the potential to be the Shaggs of the small-press furry comic world. |

Nah, not-profit means their goal isn't to turn a profit, and they don't take any sort of dividends. There's a difference between a company that says they are non-profit and a gorvernment registered NFP. Any group can say "we're non-profit", but government registered NFPs have guidelines to follow and need to prove that any fiscal surplus isn't being turned into profit (dividends). As a result, if they aren't a registered NFP, there's really no backup to their claim of being non-profit. Its up to you to decide whether you trust them or not. I highly doubt Fur-type is a registered NFP. -t |

Yiff=wrong.
I dunno but too many of the comics they publish look scary. Also if they're trying to be professional they're failing miserably because the website sure turned me off. |
