Inkbunny is a community art site catering to adult furry fans. It went live on June 12, 2010[3] after a three month beta,[4] and won Best Website at the 2017 Ursa Major Awards.[5]

Inkbunny has over 690,000 registered members (~31,000 visit in any given day), 1,850,000 submissions and 231,000 journals as of August 2021.[6] The site mascot is a pink rabbit.[7]

Philosophy and content

Inkbunny exists to help artists share and sell their work.[8] The site once took a commission on the sale and distribution of high-resolution digital downloads and prints, but now donations and merchandise are its sole sources of income;[9] no fees are charged to join, display work, engage in business or accept donations on the site.

Inkbunny welcomes furries with various interests, fetishes, and 'philias. To facilitate positive interactions, members can moderate their submissions and journals, ban disruptive users from commenting and contacting them, and block work by keyword, rating or artist.[8] This is the origin of the site software's name, Harmony.

While Inkbunny only admits adult members, half of all hosted work is general-rated.[6] To avoid legal issues, humans and "essentially human" neko characters may not be depicted nude or in sexual situations.[10] Derivative works are prohibited without explicit permission and material changes, and photography is limited to backgrounds and the display of artwork (including limited fursuit photos).[10]

Several of Inkbunny's founding staff and testers were involved with Softpaw, a cub porn magazine; the proportion of such content spiked after FA banned it and recommended Inkbunny as an alternative host,[11] but as of May 2014 only 9% of the site's submissions were tagged "cub", including general-audience works.

Features

See also: Comparison of furry art sites

Inkbunny introduced features which were previously unavailable on most competing furry art archives, including:

  • Keyword- and artist-based submission blocking, including blocks based on a combination of rating and keyword (e.g. sexually-adult My Little Pony work)
  • Multi-file submissions, intended for multi-page comics, but also used for alternate versions, sketches accompanying a finished work, and sketch-dumps
  • Pools, ordered sets of submissions related by theme or work; like folders, but one submission can be in many pools
  • Keyword suggestions from users, with the goal of improving the site's search and blocking features
  • Always-on HTTPS to avoid wireless traffic sniffing at conventions, and IP Ranges to control account access[12]
  • Bulk upload via ZIP files, to both multiple submissions and individual multi-file submissions
  • Stream announcements, separate from artistic submissions and journals, and character sheets as a subset of submissions
  • High-definition images displayed on-page,[13] with support for file sizes up to 100MB[14] and 144 MegaPixels/16K UHD (e.g. 12000x12000, 18000x8000)[15]
  • Preloaded images and pre-rendered pages, speeding up access to adjacent content[16]
  • A self-managed content delivery network, targeted via geolocation, with per-user control over the server used[17]
  • Per-watch and account-wide notification filters, to customize receipt of notices on topics such as submissions, journals, streams, +favs, and watches[16]
  • Account renaming, including modification of all mentions using site syntax, and continued handling of previous names[16]
  • Encrypted private message and support tickets, limiting potential loss in the event of a security vulnerability[12][18]
  • Mention notifications, letting members know when they have been referenced by others[18]
  • API support for developers, easing automated access to most read-only functions and submission posting[19]
  • Streaming off-site and off-server database replication, to avoid data loss in the event of a disaster[20]

Hardware

Inkbunny leases its servers, and has combined them with VPS caches to create a private CDN for public content,[17][21][22] delivering ~25TB to users in December 2017.[23]

Inkbunny raised $10,400 in a December 2014 donation drive, securing three years of funding for its Netherlands servers.[24][25] A one-week drive in March 2020 raised over $5000 from 72 donors.[26]

Inkbunny's servers are named after the seven deadly sins (including historical and linguistic variants):

The new server will launch in December and brings our dedicated transfer capacity to 55TB, plus 40TB provided by VPS caches around the world - hopefully enough to sate the 20 million monthly pageviews we've been getting." - Inkbunny, Twitter (November 9, 2019)
