Explanation on horrible quality below.
So on April Fool's day, Equestria Daily decided to use artwork of mine of the G1 pony, Paradise. I didn't give them permission, AAAAND they digitally removed my watermark, WHICH IS ILLEGAL BTW.
But I honestly didn't really mind, until I thought about it...
They used that artwork NOT because they liked it, but because BRONIES DO NOT LIKE G1 PONIES. APRIL FOOLS! HAHA.
So the use of my artwork was in an ironic, spiteful way.
Which displeases me.
I've always had a nice view of ED. When they once posted one of my artworks with the wrong source, I emailed them and asked them to fix it, and they were awesome about it. But this time I'll admit it. I'm pretty annoyed.
And not only at Equestria Daily, but also at the bronies who supposedly love and tolerate everything, except the older generations of My Little Pony.
There are generations of MLP I'm not fond of (see: G3.5)
But I'm not an asshat about it.
I JUST DON'T BUY THEM. It's really easy to do.
So how about you bronies try a little harder at the "tolerate" half of your slogan. No one is saying you have to love G1's. But you can stop being dicks about the fact that they exist.
NOW AS FOR WHY THIS LOOKS LIKE SHIT.
-I did the sketch and decided to ink it with my awesome manga inking pen. ...when I found it, it was broken. So it is "inked" with pencil.
-My tablet is broken. And I don't have a mouse. So this shit is colored with my laptop touch pad thing. I am never doing that again.
ANYWAY G1 fans enjoy, hateful bronies, go away.
Seriously, like far away.
And don't come back.

I do not like the older g1-g3.5 gens, I hate the art style of them and just thought they were all kinda dumb looking.
but I do not think it's right for them for use your stuff in a hateful way or to go out of the way and remove your watermark. I love your art and you actually make the older pony gens enjoyable.
I think you're right in saying some bronies need to actually practice what they preach in the love and tolerate, and I think going around blasting older gens like that is wrong. I'm sorry that happened to you. And I hope to still see g4 art out of you as well as all your other awesome works.

I can understand not liking the older ponies, trust me. x3 They're girly and childish. I mean, they ARE brightly colored ponies, for pete's sake! xD
But I do like them, some more than others, and I get annoyed when I draw older pony art and people are like I HATE THIS GEN PLZ DRAW MORE G4. xD
I understand not liking something. There are things that *I* don't like. But that means that when I see it pop up in my inbox, I CLICK THE X. I don't go TO that artwork, and comment on it. That's just...crazy person behavior. xD Why torture yourself by looking at something you hate? x3
Thank you, I do plan on drawing more G4s, of course!! :D

Exactly XD Which is why I don't get it when people comment on things they don't like or find "offensive" like, seriously? If you see a giant dog penis in your inbox and you find that sick and perverted and the you're not used to seeing that or something, CLICK X XDD Like seriously? I don't get it, people insist on creating drama by being all "OMAGAWD EW DIS IS HORRID I HATE DIS" like... okay? Great?!
Ugh yeah, but seriously, I find your G1 style very eye catching, and it actually is really nice and something I don't mind popping up in my inbox :3 So when people get all pissy about it and have to leave comments, it's obviously they are just seeking drama/attention.
But yay~ I look forward to see more of your art <3 Your style and colouring is simply amazing, I one day would love to throw piles of money at you haha xD!

LOL that's a good point -- If something in your inbox is gross, or you don't like it, why the hell would you click on it?
Plus I don't SEE giant dog penises in my inbox because I found out how to use a filter. xD If things like that offend you and you're not using a filter....I wonder how 'offended' you really are... xD
YAY, PILES OF MONEY! xD
I look forward to working with you! :D

even i felt a little annoyed when i saw your art used in the banner that day. i saw it and thought.. that looks like nyaasu's work.. and eh, i'm one of the few bronies/pegasisters/whatever who gave g1 a shot. it was decent, i watched a few, tho got abit bored 20 episodes or so in :P
Meh, i would'nt get too upset about it. at the end of the day, so what if people had a laugh at g1?
This is an adorable little piece of work btw :P

Why don't people like the older gens? I mean, seriously, what's not to like at them? They're goofy as flipping heck, the things you can notice whilst watching can get you laughing at the absurdity, things were just stranger back then in those gens... and I kid you not, Tirek from Gen 1 was a badass villain. Like, really violently, viciously, evilly badass. New series? A Q knock-off. While I adore Q...
... Who's the most girly? One who threatens to behead a baby Dragon in Gen 1... or someone who likes just causing (admittedly) physically harmless havoc?

*sigh* Bronies. =.= But Paradise! \o/ She's one of my favorites.
I love this pic, and I love G1's. Yes the animation was horrible (except for Rescue at Midnight Castle <3) but the ponies themselves? Probably my favorite of the figurines. And the plots, omg they were so good! Perhaps a bit cheesy at times but ah well. They still had villains bent on absolutely destroying the world...several times over! ^^

i dont hate them i dont like them they have there place in time and g1&2 arent terrible they are just different they went by what all childrens programing did in those eras g1 in the 80's and g2' the 90's i have nothing to say about 3 and 3.5. but i only like g4 i myself dont hate them cause they had there place and still do but i dont care for them that a better way to describe it i dont care for them
RIGHT! No one's saying you have to like them, but when you don't like something, the healthiest thing you can do is ignore it.
It's one thing if people are all up in your face like "NO YOU HAVE TO LIKE G1!!" But so far I haven't seen anyone doing that to the G4 fans.
(I'm sure people like that are out there too, though.) xD

xD i dont ignore them as they were important in this series creation as in an interview with faust herself she said that she based it off the adventures she imagined with her toys as a kid. a true fan like myself can dislike g's1-3.5 and still appreciate them (given i have no idea who would like 3 and 3.5 but to each there own)
As someone who likes pretty much every generation the whole “joke” got on my nerves pretty fast.
Especially when Seth posted the work of some G1/G3 custom artists just so people could mock it.
This art theft just makes everything even worse.
Also, love this picture. <3 Paradise is awesome.

...I heard about that. AND that people went to the customs' creators' deviantarts and apparently started harassing them? That's just...I mean seriously, these people are on YOUR SIDE, bronies. THEY LIKE PONIES. Even if the ponies they like look different, you're all on the same side. ...Who picks fights with people who are allies? xD
I love Paradise. :D Thank you!

Omg, you took the words right out of my mouth. A while ago, I posted on my FB something about the fact of it being so hard to find pony collectors anymore who like the G1s. I stated that normally when I find a pony fan, I get someone who says, " I love ponies!!!!...but I don't like the old ones...just the new ones. Well, in that whole message I wrote on my wall, I never once said anything negitive about the G4s. Well, I get on my page the next day, and a brony had written me about me "dissing" MLPFIM....and then trying to give me the history about ponys...I found that part funny, because he knew pretty much nothing..lol. I ignored it, but found it very annoying that he had to write me about something that wasn't said on my page. >___>, and then, while at a con, I attended a hooffur panel, and they got on the subject of MLP. While I was trying to explain my love for nearly every generation of My Little Pony, they seemed to get almost offended when I brought up G1. I was offended when they told me not to talk about them. So yes, some of the talk about G1s are just plain ignorant. It's pretty sad that they judge the origin of the new show so poorly. Honestly, If they look a little further, the ponies from FIM where originally going to be the ponies from G1. And the only reason they didn't proceed to do that, was because they didn't have the rights to the G1's. So, bottom line is EXACTLY what you posted, Bronys really need to practice what they preach...
Yeah, bronies tend to be INCREDIBLY DEFENSIVE of their G4 show, but it seems to be at the expense of everyone else's opinions. xD
And, they tend to imagine things...like the 'fact' that you insulted the G4s. xD
And I loved the fact that the ponies in the new cartoon were originally G1's! I saw the original concepts, THEY ARE SO CUTE! :D
...Maybe if they had BEEN the same characters as the original, the bronies would hate them less? I dunno. -_-

GAWD. I'm so upset at EQD myself as an early pony fan (I grew up with them as a little girl, so of course I still love Bonnie Zacherle's ponies!) that I don't think I'll be going back there for a while...
G2 was my personal favorite, I loved how they had little colored hooves. Light Heart was the best to me >w< <3 I think all the gens are special in their own ways.
And as copied from my response to CherryCustard's journal ( I saw you had commented there too):
I agree.... I love the older gens as a little girl, and I still do like the memories I had. The joke was a bit hurtful how everyone was at war with the old gens.
Light Heart has always been my favorite, and she was a G2...
WHY do people not seem to remember that without the old gen, the new one wouldn't exist. Faust was inspired as a little girl with the OLD toys, games, and ponies. She created anew from what was already there. So it can't be THAT bad.
Speaking of which.... why do people give Faust so much credit? I mean, she did create the REBOOT of MLP, but she is not the CREATOR of MLP. That would be Mrs. Bonnie Zacherle.
ugh sorry, just venting. I loved MLP before it was "20% cooler" and I don't appreciate people demeaning me or other older fans for it.

Aww, I like the art from G2 a lot, I liked the cartooney eyes they had. But in my collection of the toys, I have the least amount of G2's. I know there weren't that many to begin with though. x3 I have the most of G1 and G3. And my specialty is ponies with food-related symbols, so I love ponies like Munchie and Scrumptious! xD
Yeah, I thought about that, too. Like it or hate it, if the original MLPs didn't exist, there would be no such thing as a brony. xD
AND, like you said, Lauren Faust was inspired by the original ponies herself!!

That's bullshit that they removed your watermark. In addition to being illegal, that's beyond disrespectful, too =/ did you email them about it? Because that is NOT okay.
And completely agreed. Their tolerance and love only lasts for themselves, the majority of the time. I see people bitch about people who judge them for liking the show, but they go around and judge everyone who doesn't in addition to everyone else.

I didn't email them, because I figured it wasn't a big enough deal at the time (and I'm kind of scared of confrontation). Plus, I figured it'd be gone by the next day, and it was. It's gone now. x3
That's a REALLY GOOD POINT, they do spend a lot of time trying to get people to watch and accept the G4 show...and yet they turn around and tell G1 fans how brainless and girly THEIR show is.
Pretty hypocritical... xD

Is there any way you can get them to source you or remove the pic? D: That's just wrong. -__-
And I like the G1 Ponies. I had a whole bin full of them... I wish I had kept them. :< I soooo regret telling my mom to get rid of them. >__> I was 11 and I thought I was too cool to have ponies anymore.

Oh ok, that's good. :3
I don't remember that one, so no. xD Hahaha, that sounds so cool. xD
But I'm looking them up online and I see a lot I had! This is so nostalgic. x3

Honestly this is the sort of thing that anybody with any interests outside FiM should just get used to. There's a group of Bronies out there who will interpret almost anything as a personal attack against them, and they are of course the loudest of the bunch.
Needs more Fizzy.
(Reminds me, need to see if they ever put the movie on DVD, I think my tape's starting to wear out, the tracking is all over the place... Though if it's not on DVD maybe I can see if they put it on one of those huge shiny record-sized-CD things and have a friend with a player for those copy it to tape for me...)

Yeah, I didn't like the animation for the G3s/G3.5s myself, either, but I have NEVER ripped on them in front of people who happen to like them. That really is just...mean-spirited. -_-
MOST BRONIES that I meet are AWESOME, but there are some out there that make me angry.
And it's OK, my stuff gets stole'd a lot, but usually it's not meant to be an insult. This was a new experience. -_-

Ah bronies...some of them can be such dicks. Kind of makes me dislike being a fan sometimes of the show. I'll admit I don't care that much for the older styles especially the supremely creepy style that came before FiM X(. I have to say however that was pretty mean of them to do to show their dislike of the style. Kind of cracks me up when they go on about the whole matter of love and tolerance X3.
Anyways you make the Gen 1 style look pretty damn awesome with this pic.

Oh I don't mind if you don't like them. xD No one person likes everything! But to go out of your way to hate on it is just...it's just rude. Really. Why spend the time to hate on something you don't have to even think about, if you don't want to? xD
Well thank you! :D
Maybe I can re-do Paradise in G4 style and people will appreciate her more. x3

That was really assholish of them, I'd never understand why so many bronies hate on the early MLP generations. After all Lauren Faust was inspired by G1 to make the current series we all love and enjoy, were it not for Twilight, Sparkler, Firefly, Surprise, Applejack and Posey there would be no Twi, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and AJ to laugh at and cheer on today.
YAY, PARADISE!!! I freakin' love Paradise, and for some crazy reason, she's one of the only common G1 ponies I don't have in my collection. Hmm...
I'm sorry that happened to you. I can only imagine how upset you felt. That was a real dick move on their part. :(
I love G1's. I grew up with them. To me, they're the heart and soul of MLP and always will be.
