Guys, be a little more grateful please. The staff could have easily just deleted the foxes all together, but they put the time and effort into transferring the designs so we could still have them. Saying things like "I don't like them" "I hate them" "give back the old lineart" is not the right thing to do. There are nicer ways of saying it - "they aren't my cup of tea" "I'll miss the old lineart" "they could be better".

This obviously doesn't apply to everyone, but some people need to be nicer.

I'm happy for the change, to be honest. The designs are still lovely, and I'd rather have four "not special" foxes than lose Chicken Smoothie all together because of something so simple as copyright infringement. We can't always get what we want, alright?

To the staff, the foxes are lovely, ok? You guys did amazing c:

If it were me, I would've kept the old designs until someone contacted me personally about the foxes :/

What's next? The Warrior Cats? Heck, might as well change the Malk foxes too while at it ._.

While I agree and don't doubt that the change was necessary, I'm going to also say that constructive criticism never hurt anyone and that it pays well to listen to the user base and what they feel should be done.

The four foxes that were changed held something special about them. As stated by someone else, the more special equines were given special lineart. Why not those four foxes, especially that birthday fox?

While I do think that the change is for the greater good, I do think they should've created other linearts.

wowowow what a cutie <3 I absolutely love the valentines foxes on the new lines.

I was never too much of a fan of the old lines- their size and style was very awkward and different compared to the rest of the pets on CS. And now they match and are a lot cuter! I really like them :) No more stolen lines either, I see nothing wrong with the change whatsoever- it's a lot better!

I agree constructive criticism is a good thing, but what most people are saying is blatant disrespect with no constructive anything. "I hate the new foxes!" is destructive and does nothing but hurt the artists.

I do like the idea of making them special, I will say. Even just adding a "happy birthday" behind the blue fox.
