I, personally, am all for this.

Yul's lines are gorgeous, and the old "improved" designs look great on them. I think a change like this has been past due, and I'd love to see it happen.

No please don't. ):
I love the older horse lines more, they look more lively, and cute.~ And equimagine did a great job on them.
Maybe chooseable horse lines for the ones who preffer the older ones and the ones who want the new ones? (If it's possible)

I think my signature basically sums up my opinion... I'll miss the equimagines a lot. Not just a few, not just the PPS. All of them. They are and will always be special to me...

Im against this because I really like the old lineart horses I have,more than the newer ones. I dont really mess around with items on my horses so it doesnt bother me but like I said i like the old lineart more than the newer..

    couldn't say it better . i actually frowned upon most of the
    old designs up front , but when i saw them i loved them so
    much ! and i like how now the ponies will have an eye color
    if the poll leans more toward yes than anything . i never
    have liked the horse line arts from 09 and 10' , they were good ,
    but they never caught my eye .

The first statement is true, I don't know their history and a lot of other people probably don't know either. I still want them to stay the same though. I really like the old lines.

The first statement is most definitely true if an 08 user (cough me cough) has never seen anyone breathe a letter of this until today xD no doubt that the line's history will keep coming back to stir up conflict in the CS population again... the creators of Warrior Cats heard about this site (see here), so it's not out of the question for the photographers of equi's referenced photos to come across this site, see equi's horses, and then contact CS to have the horses removed/changed in some way...
Spread the word to end the word, because discrimination based on perceived or actual IQ/"intelligence" is no better than discrimination based on race, gender, etc.

Context, consistency, and clear antecedents are golden.
I neither read nor speak between the lines. But I will analyze your language.

Guys please stop being so negative, the staff have been kind enough to color in these pets for us month after month, and more without asking so much as a thank you in return. Now they are offering to redo ALL the old ones, that is a lot of work, and that is a lot of time they are taking out of their days to try and make us happy. You can express your opinion but theres no need to be rude, and post things in your siggy, acting immature.

Tyr wrote: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.


Tyr, I completely agree with the 7th one.

[I don't want to diss them, sorry D:]

Yeah, there could be copyright issues with that. Could get legal :c

I totally agree. I might even start collecting them after all, if they all turn out to be that beautiful. :)

(Plus: New. Unicorns. New. freakin. Unicorns. *3*)

"HIATUS"
I'm not an active collector anymore,
but PMs will still reach me. :)
