<p>I woke up this morning with an idea in mind and, lo and behold, over the process of the day, <a href="http://vis.mjs-svc.com/fastats/">finished the visualization</a>.  At least, a rough draft of it.  This ones even personalizable!  Check out a sample <a href="http://vis.mjs-svc.com/fastats/?user=ranna">here</a>.</p>
<p>FurAffinity.net is a neat site full of neat artists and good community.  However, the statistics they provide for each users art are not only private, but rather lacking, being simply a list of numbers.  Sounds like a good job for visualization, though!  The numbers FA provides are views, favorites, and comments per submission.  Not only did I display those, but averaging them and normalizing for those averages gives a pretty good idea of relative popularity of each submission.  Users can view all four statistics in a steam chart, and also each alone in a bar chart.  I figured this was a good way to divide things up: trends are visible in general over time and one can explore specifics for each set.</p>
<p>Theres still some work Id like to do, and Im planning on collating the data I collect into a general graph of submissions on FA, but thats for later.  Its fall break and Im still on the job!</p>
