Ariana is hardly a classic.She only came on the scene in 2004 or 2005,by which time the furry artists who'd started this transformation subgenre
had been gone for about 2-4 years.

In 2000 to 2001 nobody even knew Ariana existed.Back then
you'd be referring to Fissure King,Ranzab,Picklejuice and gang as the
'classic ' sites

Probably if anyone deserves the title 'classic',it would
have to be A J Pearson(Picklejuice) who was the pioneer furry Ariana
yanked the mantle away from.Back in 2001 Pearson was banging out
cheapo tf art by the ton,and had stacks of websites scattered about the
web with his furry and tf art sequences.The LTF story universe that
Cubist archived( and which got sick around the same time the
furry tf subgenre got sick 911) had its artwork done by Pearson.Pearson also
donated stuff he found or made to the TF Graphics Archive,which was the
predessessor to the S&D type archive.

When Transfur and tranform.to downsized,a lot of stuff vanished,and
only fragments of that time remain on archive.org,as well as the
Tf-Ring,which contained various stories from Magus T Fox and other
furries
