See, my vote still hasn't changed from No. Am I for art theft? Of course not. Do I think the lines should be removed because of the art theft? Yes. Was that what I was asked about for the poll? No, and that's why my vote isn't changing. Tess did the poll to ask if we wanted them all to look uniform, and I don't. If they're changed I want the equi horses to be in one of the line-art edits. At this point we all know they will be changed no matter what, so I'm actually voting for the question asked. (Which it's perfectly fine if people want to vote yes or no for other reasons, that's just not what I'm doing.)

Wrong for the others.

I hope this convinces you otherwise. ;)

I must say, this convinces me even more that the Draft change is a big no from me.

Sorry Sorren Fey.

Also having recently mortgaged my soul (at least that is how it felt at the time! :D ) to acquire the Buckskin PPS, not because it was the Buckskin PPS and a list pet, but because of the adorable line art, I would feel very cheated if that line art was changed. While the new PPS ponies are cute, they just don't hold the same appeal.

That being said, while the updated ponies look good, you also lose something in the translation of the design, and in the fact that none of the horses or ponies will be "looking" at you anymore.

How would you see his heart if he was not looking at you?


O.O

You nailed it. You so nailed it.

The eyes. Holy Horses yes. O.O

Pretty sure they meant the heart marking that you won't be able to see with the direction the new line art has the head...


Actually, Both.

I think everyone trying to "attack" others for their opinion needs o step back a moment harassment is a big rule on here like the art theft that you defend



.. I find it a weeny bit hard not to take this as a sort of rebuke aimed at me.. For I do sound like Ive been defending art theft. -3- But really, after all the proof being showed on here, I have almost no problem with the change.. Note the almost. ( That's why my siggy is still against this)

The wee c**** that is still keeping me from voting yes is pretty much how I would miss these lines. Tbh, I hyperventilated when I saw them as a newbie. I really love them... Any sort of archive or something would take care of that, I'm sure. -3- But so far I have no idea wether the lines will just be deleted or will they still exist. Until then, I'm afraid my vote is still no. :I

Just clearing this up.

Like I said to a few people- by all means, save your favorite horses to your computer, make a little folder for them or something. There's no way they're going to be gone 100%- there are so many graphics, avatars, banners, etc with Equi horses in them. So it's not like you'll never see the lineart ever again ^^


I'm probably sounding like a broken record at this point,
but really, this is a fantastic option. You may still have your pets, but were also helping CS as a whole become more consistent with its rules

Sorry Sorren Fey.

I agree, the whole bunny outfit thing on the draft was meant to be cute, on the new draft lines it just looks like the horse is rather ticked off to be wearing it.

I wish there was a way to vote to lock the thread and end this. I hate to see all of the fighting.

I cant tell you how happy I will be when this ends...regardless of the outcome.

Same. With the posting like above, why should we even vote now? I'm seeing too much disrespect for even wanting to avoid a complaint upon CS for this art theft that is now being handled correctly. :(

How would you see his heart if he was not looking at you?



All they're going to do, for now, is focus on the adult ponies and horses. I believe that the PPS ones will be tended to later.


Regardless, the Buckskin PPS would not be the same at all with the new line art, what is so cool about it is the line art it has now, and the new draft just doesn't cut it, it is missing soul!
