I love all the old lines, and it would ruin my game if all of them were changed over. I think that they looked cuter in the old lines, and perhaps you could give users the choice? I personally wouldn't be happy at all if my girls and boys got changed over.

You know...

I dont often post on this site but I have to say..
I was against it, because I thought the conversion disrespected those artists that did the original work.
However, it looks a million times better that way, and makes CS seem so much more...organized.

I remember when equimagine left...I'm still suspicious about the circumstances but I was a new user then.
I voted yes.
Art theft is unacceptable.
Looking for the PPS lion from august.

I love the old linearts, I don't really want them changed. They're really cute, and I'd miss the old look. I'd really prefer if they stayed the way they were. I wouldn't be upset if they changed, but it isn't worth it to just put items on them. If you wanted to change it because of that one quote in the first post, I'd be fine with it, since you don't want copyright problems. (Though didn't she edit them?)

A lot of users dislike the current horse linearts, so it's nice to have a blend of linearts. (I don't mind them, but I love the Equimagine linearts. I think I was just a new player when she retired. I loved the look of those horses.) The examples look nice, but wouldn't it just be less work to make the items for them? Though it wouldn't be as fun to do the items…
Love the new drafts, though.

Though I understand why others say yes they want the change I picked no. I have always loved the older lines and was very disappointed to find out that they were going to change when they did. Not that i don't like the new lines its just I liked how the older ones looked. I wish it didn't have to happen but by what I see now they will change.

Please don't change the linearts! I love these linearts they are special because they are older and I love the way they look, please keep them, but the new drafts are pretty awesome looking! I would be very sad if the old lineart got changed because honesty I love the old one the newer lineart I was never found of. I would be very sad if the old lineart was changed so please keep them

    As much as I love a lot of the equimagine equines, I actually think this is a good idea and could be beneficial to CS. I'll miss the old linearts, but I think it will be for the best. ^^ Everything will be much more... em... uniform (overused word, maybe. x3) I do have to admit, I like the equimagine ponies better than the current ones. However, I'm not entirely sure if I'm completely "yes" or "no". I'd like to see more of the converted pet first, I guess.

    But I LOVE the new drafts! Would they by any chance be used more, for future adoptables? ( Sorry if this question was already asked. ) I can't wait to see the unicorns and donkeys, too!

I did some searching and found comparisons of Equimagine's linearts to actual photos, and one of them is not only traced exactly, but the horse's design in the photo was used in one of the releases. As much as I'd hate to see the old linearts go, I'm starting to think it'd be a good idea because of the consequences of art theft Chicken Smoothie can get into if a photographer of the traced photos decides to press charges, as this is a large and in no ways an unpopular site.


    you have to think about it , the warrior cats .
    some how it got to the author .

Yup.

None of the artists of the original photographs have brought up the manner yet, but it's definitely a possibly, no matter how small that chance is. Why should the site wait until after it's been charged with violating copyright to do something about the issue?

I think the only ones I would be really sad to lose are the Buckskin PPS and Dice PPS. And maybe the drafts, I've always had a soft spot for them, but I think it'd be neat to see the designs redone.

I picked Yes because I think it would be nice to see the majority of designs on the new lines. Perhaps we could have an archive of the old lines; I suppose we already do, with the CS Wiki. Or maybe they could be added as an extra stage, so the older versions could remain in the site archives.
