Anthro Week is Over
^skifi reports, April 6
reports, April 6Writing a speech is difficult enough but writing one filled with as much gratitude as I feel right now is much more difficult. Tonight, though, I am taking a break from my usual happy and cheerful mood and letting my words come from my heart.

The Anthro-Alliance's Guide: Issue # 1

reports, Jul 31, 2007The Best of the Best: The Anthro-Alliance's Guide to DA's Anthro Artists!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I admit it -- I'm a "Featured Artist" nut. There's nothing I love more than browsing the galleries at DA and picking out the anthro gems. Except pie. I love pie more.
But instead of just hiding these in my Favorites Section, the *Anthro-Alliance will be putting out weekly issues of the AA's Guide, complete with interviews in future issues. For now I'll kick things off with a bang by featuring some of the hotest Anthro artists out there. Some are well-known for what they do, while some are really not visited as much as they should be.
Because this is a general publication I've kept all the features clean and in good taste.

Future issues will mostly include artists who aren't that well known -- and while we actively hunt for them in the Anthro Gallery, you can suggest them to us! Here are the rules for suggesting an *Anthro-Alliance news article feature:
1.) Please do not suggest yourself. I don't want hurt feelings if you're not chosen.
2.) Up to 5 suggestions per note -- only one note per week please.
3.) Title your suggestions New Article Feature Suggestion. Please only send the note to the club.
4.) Include a link to the piece.
5.) Tell me why you're suggesting each picture.
6.) If your suggestion isn't featured, please no nasty notes.
7.) I prefer artists who aren't OMG famous -- while I will take suggestions for the pieces, I will be trying to feature artists who actually need the exposure.
Well that'll be all for this week! Tune in same time next week for more great Anthro Gallery art!

I guess I can see how asking somebody; "Can I see your rooster?" Could be taken the wrong way.

(OMG!
Okay, it's too late to browse them properly right now, but I've looked at the thumbs, many of artists I already know, and others I don't yet and want to. So cool...!
And... I'm on this list. (blushes) Thanks... it wasn't something I would have expected, but I am quite flattered.

I needs to... get my butt out of lazy mode and start actually submitting stuff to the Alliance gallery. xD
Wonderful features, all of them. x3 I'll browse them a bit more closely when I have more free time.

n. Attribution of human motivation, characteristics, or behavior to inanimate objects, animals, or natural phenomena.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The concept of an anthropomorphic being is actually pretty broad and not limited to those who are bi-peds with thumbs. Even talking to your cat as if he or she understands you is anthropomorphizing the cat in your eyes. This can even be extended to inanimate objects -- a prime example of this is Cogsworth and Lumiere from Beauty and the Beast.
What you're referring to is only one type of anthro, and my aim with the *Anthro-Alliance is not to so narrowly define the term. A lot of people have the idea that the term anthro and furry are the same, when in fact they are not.

While emotion can be observed in animals, drawing human expressions on animals, spark plugs, and candelabras is anthropomorphizing them. Typically a cartoonish style is employed to alter the physical characteristics of an animal so as to apply human expressions to them -- for instance Simba smiling, or Scar scowling. In Evana's last picture with the father and son, the cub's look of wonder at the butterfly on his nose is a human expression -- trust me, I have cats, and however fascinated they are at something I've yet to see them raise their eyebrows and gasp.
In regards to Lion King, to reference part of the definition again: "human motivation, characteristics, or behavior", I would hold that while as a lion Simba's motivation for killing Scar would be simply one of survival and the urge to control the pride for his own breeding purposes, Simba's motivation for killing his uncle in the story as an anthropomorphic character is one of revenge and about proving himself worthy to his father. It's the story of Hamlet, mixed in with a few other archetypes. While a male lion wouldn't hesitate to engage in battle to save his females from a rogue lion, I don't see many throwing the rogue lion off a cliff muttering something about how he killed his father.
