Free Stuff & Why We Use It

As you might have noticed, F3convention uses inexpensive and free services almost exclusively. From our website hosting to our payment processor, forums, and even our email, nearly everything we use is free or very low cost. It has been mentioned that this is a source of concern for some furs, but it really needn't be.

 

We are proud to use free services whenever possible, because we do it for a very good reason. See, every dollar we spend on web hosting, email servers, forum management, web designers, and so forth, is another dollar that we can't spend on making the convention itself an amazing experience. So yes, we do free or low-cost for a lot of things, because what really matters isn't whether or not our brand is on everything, but rather how much fun you have at F3!

 

So the next time you hear someone saying something about our Gmail account or our Wix website, ask them whether they would prefer thousands of dollars to be spent on a "professional image", or if it might, just maybe, be more important to put that money into the convention where it belongs.
