April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberI thought I'd never see the day when Fill draws a woman. I remember suggesting it to him to branch out more and he'd always be against it.

MemberProbably because he's gay and doesn't want to? To be honest though, I kinda hope he doesn't draw more. There are so few artists that draw exclusively males. Hell, RedRusker even started drawing females.
First and hopefully last female. BUT that is entirely up to FR himself and I will respect his decision. I know this is a pretty controversial take, so I understand if it angers people. But I just wanted to state my opinion.
Edit: I am an asshole, but I will leave this here as is because I don't like hiding my mistakes. Feel free to shame me, I certainly deserve it. Gotta learn when to keep my mouth shut.

MemberDon't worry. This will not happen again :3

MemberLike I said, it's up to you. I shouldn't dictate what you do and don't draw. I also now feel like a total ass now that I have stepped away and come back, so I majorly apologize. I wish I was able to downvote my own comment.
I will continue to support your art however I can regardless of what you decide.

MemberWhat did you expect? Every gay artist is gonna do it. Even when they say they won't lol so expect more. Which is funny though cause artist that only draw straight/female art will never draw gay stuff and stick with it. Interesting times

MemberEh, chunie does exclusively males. There are a few out there.
True, not many female oriented artists will do gay stuff. But I noticed that a lot of straight male furries get a LOT of commissions of just their fursona, especially when they're hard. Sometimes they outnumber the ones with a female in it. Just an interesting observation.

MemberWell, I gotta say for you first and potentially only straight art piece you did an amazing job.
