They're just changing the line art, there will still be the same amount of each pet, the rarity tag will stay the same, the demand might change, possibly making them more valuable.

Will there be more than one set of unicorn lines like we have now or will they all look the same? Also will the zebras change as well? The current Zebras are just edited pony lines but the new pony lines would be difficult to convert into a zebra so will they be getting a separate set of lines for them as well?

What would happen to the VR Roadkill PPS? I think that would look ridiculous on a Horse or Pony.

Not sure, that one might have to stay the way it is, since the new lines don't look like road kill :lol:

The rarities/dates will not change. The only difference will be their appearance.

    Once again guys, the change isn't about items fitting.

I'm assuming no counts for more. If 40% of CS is against it, it wouldn't be fair to change the lines. But I don't know the cut off point or if I'm even right. Just an assumption ^^

    I think another big question is how they'll count the ambivalent ones. But yeah, I would think at least 70-75% would be needed to change, although that's just me. They might just pick whichever is leading.

Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

Thank you! And I love my unicorns, I would hate to see them changed! I really hope this doesn't happen, so many people would bbe dissapointed.

    Just a question { dang, I post here too much -.-" }, is the "No" voting option given more quantity compared to "Yes", or are the two the same quantity?
    What I'm trying to ask here is if "Yes" and "No" are a fair distance apart in votes, let's say that "Yes" is winning, but there are still a lot of "No" votes, will the "No" votes be given more consideration or are they equal?

Let's put it this way: if the final vote was something like 53% Yes, 47% No, the change wouldn't go through. It's not so much that the No votes have more weight as that it will only happen if there is a strong majority who would be content with the change going through. If the change would upset a significant proportion of the site, that's not something we want, and people are more likely to be very upset about the lines changing from how they were than about the lines staying the same.

    Alright, thank you, that clears it up.

Yes, the poll is the deciding factor. The lines will not be changed unless the majority of members supports it.

If you disagree that's ok, but were all allowed opinions here.


Whether or not you care if it was traced, art infringement is serious, and it's something that can get CS in trouble, or shut down.

Personally, I would love seeing all the designs go to Yulyhn's line art. They're a lot more fleshed out and realistic. As well as the fact that the new draft lines are positively lovely. In long run, the same designs on Equi's horses are going to stay.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I've always loved the sort of fairy tale looking "Arabian" type line art of Equimagine's original horses. And the PPS foals are some of my favorite pets. The new pps foals are cute too but not the same as those delicate little baby ponies of Equimagine's. I would love to see the Zebra's edited though, that's a definite YES YES YES. As I've never been fond of the slightly edited pony line art for them since Zebras are far more "donkeyish" than "ponyish" in real life.

I like the unicorns that I have as well, but who knows; yulynh's idea for them might end up being more popular.
