I finally created a pony generating piece-together program that only need slight add ons as I go now.

OMG - if you put that on the web as pony-creator that would be AWESOME!!  I'm not a fan of the ones out there...

That's why I did it myself. I can copy any style freehand, and make it my own, but
It takes a lot of work & time. That's why I started this project.

Now I can make a ponysona in 15-20 minutes with a little bit of freehand added in.

Just make sure to credit the original artists of the ponies if you're going to make a pony creator with them! If you have permission to that is.

[An-Gel Sakura]

That's a good point. I'd like to thank all the artists of MLPFIM for creating this style for whom
I would not be able to make them. http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Crew

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

What I mean is, I have a very strong suspicion you didn't draw these by hand, but just did some cut and paste work (along with slight line editing and color changes) of vectors created by other artists. Art theft is a serious issue, and I guess I didn't think I would run into it on the Arena here.

All of this.

I can reverse image search most of your personas and come up with the original images in a couple of seconds.  Your avatar is a recolored wet-hair Rarity.  Adding a clipart Santa hat and a painted hoof does NOT make it yours.  Your image of the pink pony with the smiley face is a recolored Applejack without her hat.  Your g4 Twilight is an edited version of the one that Doctor-G posted on Deviant Art, you changed her hair. 

I could go on, but I think this is pretty much obvious.

Yeek. I think reusing official art from the show/packages/whatever for adoptables is permissible (as long as you admit it); I mean, iirc a reasonable amount of people do that here with older gen art. But taking someone else's DA pic, editing it slightly, and claiming it as your own? So not acceptable.

I fully admit my guilt on some of these base images and I apologize for my transgressions. I'll stop the making them.

I also suggest that you notify everyone that you have provided one to both here and on the trading post that they have received something made with stolen art and they should stop using it/delete it. Otherwise they might get into trouble with the real artist for your "transgression"

That's not going to be too much of a problem it seems. After a year, they seemed to have
stopped using those. However there are a few of the ones I did that are still around.

What about the ones I did copying someone else's style? Was that wrong?
Does that count as stealing too?

Since these are all basically in the style of the show, I don't think "copying" really counts. That said...I do mean this kindly, but it's kind of obvious where you've edited them. The lines are kind of shaky and contrast with the vector. With that in mind, were any of these actually drawn 100% by you?

[DancingPhoenix]

You can look up free to use vectors and edit those to your will, just be sure to say that they are only edited by you, but you did not draw the base
