Made an awesome journal and after reading it, It seems like a really cool idea, and I think I should do the same to not only help out Weasyl, but to bring the community closer!

Let's help Weasyl out! Tips/Suggestions to keep it active!

I think these tips and ideas from her is really really awesome, so im just gonna copy and paste this just for you guys!

-First off, please do not harass, pester, or badtalk anyone who does not wish to leave FA. I haven't seen this yet, but I also do not want to see this. I've already gotten/seen nasty comments for people willingly choosing to leave that site, so please lead by example and don't give it back.

• Post! Obvious enough, by just BEING here to post, it's providing new content for people to work with. Interact! Try to comment/talk with people. IDK great thing about small communities is being able to connect better, right? I'm doing my best to take advantage of that, and being able to make conversation with people is really making it a pleasant experience so far. I already wanna stay!
• Offer extra stuff. A lot of people are offering free things, trades they wouldn't normally be open/offering, etc. I think this sorta thing also helps build the sense of compassion and community necessary for a place to flourish.
• Make certain content Weasyl exclusive.
• Open commissions here first, before FA (or other sites?)
• Have special, weasyl-only commission offers.
• Try to make a habit of commissioning artists through this site. Both artists and buyers are equally important in this. Artists wanting to make this place work will do a little extra to make it worth while, and buyers who would like to see this place kick off should do the same with meeting half way!
• Tell your friends! This is more than just a furry site (in fact, it's an everything site!) So maybe your artist friends would like to know about a new art site and nice community to build up?
• Have a problem/suggestion? Give it on the forums! I haven't tried this, but I have heard exceptionally good things about the administration for this site so far. And hey! Beta is still in the title for a reason, right?
• Suggest stuff to add to this list??

I am hoping this helps out not only those who follow me, but those who are also new here and possibly seeing this jorunal!
