Hello everyone, and WELCOME TO WEASYL~~~ whooooo yeah alright whoo
Here I'll be posting to other journals and things to help assist people in the transfer over here to Weasyl. DeviantArt (DA) has its broken community, and Fur Affinity FA has its big site flaws, but let's at least work to make Weasyl (WZL) great from the get-go!
Starting with the obvious welcome to those that transferred over from Fur Affinity, we have an opinion piece from Kellervo on the state of Project Phoenix! https://www.weasyl.com/journal/24269
Are you New To Weasyl and need some help? Why not take some advice from Psi!

Here are some general Site Tips! https://www.weasyl.com/journal/25833
Next up, we've got a general link to a post that will help you have an easier time making Weasyl your main gallery! https://www.weasyl.com/journal/24895/how-to-move-to-weasyl
See a change to the website that you'd like? The WZL admins are REALLY responsive and may likely get back with you on a subject if you notice something that you see might improve things here on the site! You can contact them via email, or by poking their twitter account! They usually report on their site outages pretty quickly, and I've definitely seen their twitter chat with a few users before! https://twitter.com/weasyl
Speaking of approachability, you should check out the front page if you haven't already! One of the admins posted their site goal and plans, and laid out how they are wanting to work to create a growing and thriving art community that fosters learning! (i kinda wanna join the forums for once. it'd be a first for me on an art site!)
Collections! https://www.weasyl.com/help/collections
you can totally get people to send you a collection request for art that has been uploaded so you don't wind up double-posting! I intend to upload most of my newer art stuff, but if you're an artist and have an art piece i've commissioned from you in the past, please feel free to send me the collection request! And if I have an art piece in my gallery, and you've already uploaded it to yours, please feel free to tell me you'd like the upload on mine taken down in favor of yours! All I ask is that I get a collection request from you on the upload from your gallery in return :D people get to see the awesome art done for me, and you get all the attention from watchers instead of me!
You can totally put tags in your own submission, but did you know that others can alter your tags in those same journals and submissions? It's true! And if you think it'd help, tagging your art in the title with suggested themes helps narrow down what your viewers will and will not click at quickly! [COM] for commission, [Vore] for vore, and [BBW] for fat arts are all examples of what you could tag in a submission title!
Since this community is just getting started up, why not try the tired-and-true "Get To Know Me" meme thing! https://www.weasyl.com/journal/27168/that-meme-thing
I intend to do something that meme thing sometime soon! but first i should probably read up on a good chunk of these links i've posted to get my page all set up xD
Anywho, that's it from me! Hope you all enjoy your time here on Weasyl~ n.n

I don't recall it offhand, but there are a few Firefox and Chrome extensions that'll help you expedite shifting uploads from FA to WZL. Might have to find these to help people out
