FurrySide Grid News: Land Sales & Creator Program Now Live!

Hello FurrySide friends! We’ve got some exciting updates to share—so grab your favorite snack, settle in, and let’s dive right in.

1. Land Purchases Are Open!

Our brand-new billing system is officially up and running. That means you can now snag your very own FurrySide region in just a few clicks:

  1. Click “Purchase Land” at the top of furry­side­grid.com.

  2. Register for our billing portal (note: it’s a separate account from your Grid login).

  3. Place your order and start planning your dream corner of FurrySide!

Whether you’re building a cozy lodge, an epic clubhouse, or a tranquil forest retreat, now’s your chance to claim prime real estate on the Grid.

2. Instant Support—Chat & Tickets

Got questions along the way? We’ve got you covered:

  • Live Chat: Look for the chat bubble in the bottom-right corner of any page.

  • Ticket System: Accessible directly inside the billing portal for any billing-or region-related inquiries.

Our support team is standing by to help you 24/7—no more waiting for email replies or wrestling with confusing forms.

3. New! FurrySide Public Works Creator Program

We need starter avatars, décor pieces, textures and more—and we want to reward the artists making them. If you can create original content that FurrySide Public Works will use, here’s what you get:

  • Free Region Access: No land fees for as long as you’re actively producing approved assets.

  • Targeted Asset List: We’ll supply a rolling wishlist—think entry-level avatars, furniture, foliage packs, signage, sandbox toys, etc.

  • Proof of Authorship Required: Show us source files, work-in-progress shots or a brief creation walkthrough. All submissions must be your original work—no recycled or ripped content.

To apply:

  1. Log in to our billing portal.

  2. Open a “Creator Program” ticket.

  3. Attach your proof of creation and let us know which assets you plan to tackle.

Once approved, you’ll be granted your free region and we’ll collaborate on deadlines and priorities.

Got feedback, ideas or burning questions? Ping us via live chat or open a support ticket. We’re here to help—and we can’t wait to see how you’ll shape FurrySide’s next chapter.

Welcome aboard this new era of creativity and community—let’s build something amazing together!

Welcome to FurrySide Alpha Stage

Welcome to FurrySide! Hi there! I’m Wyatt Parker, the founder of FurrySide, and I’m thrilled to introduce you to our community, share our mission, and update you on our progress.

While I don’t personally identify as a “furry,” I’ve come to embrace the furry community through my many friends and my partner, who is a furry. Their welcoming, friendly, and often delightfully silly nature inspired me to create FurrySide—a space where everyone who feels “different” can find acceptance.

FurrySide isn’t just for furries. It’s a haven for anyone society might label as “different,” whether you’re gay, straight, bi, trans, furry, or even, like me, an Apache attack helicopter (ha!). Here, you’re welcome just as you are.

We stand firmly against discrimination, bullying, and targeted harassment. These behaviors will never be tolerated. As we grow, we’ll continue to outline specific rules and guidelines to ensure FurrySide remains a safe and inclusive space for all.

 

Where Are We Now?
We’re currently building the welcome region and planning to add a “mainland” for parcel rentals. This will give our testers a place to call home or set up shop.

Exciting news: we’ve partnered with Podex Exchange to manage our currency, and FurBucks are officially for sale! Purchasing FurBucks supports the grid, so if you’re a creator, now’s the perfect time to take advantage of free uploads and help shape FurrySide’s economy.

 

Becoming an Alpha Tester
Register now to receive the exclusive “FurrySide Alpha Tester” title for life! Please note, this title doesn’t make you a staff member—it simply recognizes your role in bringing FurrySide to life.

 

What Are FurrySide Mentors?
FurrySide Mentors are volunteers who welcome new users, introduce them to the world of FurrySide, teach them how to hypergrid travel, and answer any questions they may have.

 

Getting a Full Region
While our store page for ordering full regions isn’t ready yet, you can still get set up! A full region includes 20,000 prims, estate rights, a 100-avatar limit, and more—all for just $10 USD per month. Contact me directly (Wyatt Parker) with your PayPal account to get started.

 

Grid Rules
Our rules are based on common sense:

  • No ageplay. Just don’t.

  • No targeted harassment or bullying.

  • Adult content is allowed, but region ratings must be respected:

    • G: Suitable for grandparents and kids.

    • M: A bit more risqué, but no nudity or sexual activities.

    • A: You get the idea.

We also have a strong commitment to respecting content creators. Whether you choose to charge for your creations or make them free, we’ll honor your wishes. Stolen content has no place here and will be swiftly investigated.

 

I’ll keep updating this blog as FurrySide evolves, so stay tuned for more exciting developments.

Once again, welcome to FurrySide!
