To those asking "Will FA support crypto or NFTs?" the answer is "No." We believe in supporting artists directly. Visit their galleries, +fav or retweet their works, send Shinies or Ko-Fi, buy from Etsy, sign up to their Patreon, tip them when commissioning.

FA is currently under attack by a DDOS. We are working with our host on the issue, but they have temporarily suspended our network activity as the DDOS has impacted over 100+ other sites as well.

We're back up! In the end, we were hit by a spicier than normal DDOS attack. Due to the volume of the attack we were forced to temporarily block Indonesia. We will look into removing the block once things have settled down.
