I voted no, for a few reasons:

1. I actually really love the "Arab" lines that Equi had, as well as the first ponies, and I really don't want to see those gone.
2. You're erasing some CS history, and its neat to see how it progressed.
3. It just seems like a discredit to Equi by removing her tag off of her lines and her designs, and placing the yulynh tag on them instead.
4. Same designs, sure, but you're also taking away the uniqueness of the original artist's designs. They lose...something when they're transferred over.
5. Items are easier to convert, and players are very creative when it comes to dressing up their pets anyway.
6. Conversion time takes away from the time that whoever is converting these can use instead to create new pets or otherwise.
7. I'm not fond of the new drafts. The face is too short, and there's something weird going on where the hind leg meets the barrel (like the body needs to be just a touch longer).

As well as some other very good points that a lot of other users are bringing up.
No, I don't play CS anymore. Yes, I play on other sites. No, I will not sell my custom item or pet.

Total disagree, I love the old lines plus I dislike the old designs on the new ones. They weren't made for the new LA. It looks wrong.

I don't know about the donkeys, but the PPS will probably be transferred to the new lines also.

I like the patterns on the updated horses :) It's like the old designs, but with a tiny bit more flare :)


Me too! The detail on the wave pony makes it so cute! I didn't like it nearly as much on the original lines.

Yes, please! I love Yul's lines and the new draft has just become a new favourite.

I'm curious about what my beloved Roadkill pps will look like, but I trust Yul to do it justice.

That sums up all my ideas perfectly. I could not agree more.

    Omg, the drafts are so cute! (: You should change the lines.
    We could finally put more items on the old pony lines.
    I have the retired lines in a different group, too.
    But will the rarities stay the same?? If they don't, I don't mind!

    What about the cats & other unused lines?

I'm not sure which choice to pick, because I like equi's original lines but not her second lines. :c It will also be sad to see the Zebra updated. I just can't see the Zebra as "special" on the new lineart for some reason.

So why do the equimage drafts need to be updated? There are no items that fit them anyway.
