YerfYerf is an online art gallery dedicated to the collection of PG-rated (or tamer) furry art. It was originally called the Squeaky Clean Furry Archive, but changed ownership and names. The name is supposedly a vocalization made by foxes, a popular subject for furry artists. The site was originally created as a "clean" alternative to archives such as the VCL, which does not place content restrictions on its artists. In January 2005, the Yerf server suffered a massive hard drive failure - attempts at data recovery failed due to an inoperable head crash, although over $2,500 was raised to cover potential costs in case it could be repaired. The site is down as of 26 January 2005 and is expected to remain that way for a while - no backups were made of the server prior to its failure, including the gallery software. Most of the art available before the crash can be viewed at archive.org. As of the end of February 2005, all art that was on the archive has been recovered (from fans who had cached copies of the archive), caption data as of approximately 2003 has been recovered (from archive.org), and a rewrite of the image-serving code is underway.
