We got nominated for an Ursa Major award!

What is it?

More formally known as the Annual Anthropomorphic Literature and Arts Award, the Ursa Major Award is presented annually for excellence in the furry arts. It is intended as Anthropomorphic (a.k.a. Furry) Fandom's equivalent of the Hugo Award ® presented by the World Science Fiction Society, mystery fandom's Anthony Award, horror fandom's Bram Stoker Award, and so forth. Anyone may nominate and vote for candidates for the Awards. These Awards are decided by the fans, not by a committee.

The category we got nominated for is Best Website; this year competing with FurAffinity, SoFurry, WikiFur, and Culturally F'd. FurAffinity won this award three times (2014, 2013, and 2012) and this is our first time being nominated.

A few notable past winners from other categories:
- Furry Force by CollegeHumor (Best Anthropomorphic Dramatic Short Work or Series, 2014)
- Twokinds by Tom Fischbach (Best Anthropomorphic Graphic Story, 2010)
- Dog's Days of Summer by Blotch (Best Anthropomorphic Other Literary Work, 2008)
- Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire (Best Anthropomorphic Game, 2014)
