Recent events:
TSP talking on Twitter, still no response on his own site.
Fimfic turned out to be supportive or at worst neutral on this whole matter.
New rules proposal was floated, not yet voted on by mods, if at all.

>Previous summary (still mostly true):
>Not much else to do while we watch TSP burn his site down and now the new moderation staff is trying to calm down everyone, Luna(Luna von Rainy in the chat log) is being a TSP 2.0 and changed the account to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna(nebbie in the chat log) try to be the reasonable one. Get comfy, it’s out of our hands now.

>Old happening:
>>Totally "fair" private poll from the moderation team to say what should be deleted. Everything is calming down https://derpibooru.org/forums/meta/topics/rule-0-policy-refinement-feedback-thread
>>Result of the private polls https://derpibooru.org/forums/meta/topics/results-of-staff-polling-on-borderline-content-and-rule-0
>>Public poll(already invaded by twitter): https://derpibooru.org/forums/meta/topics/poll-on-the-direction-of-the-current-proposals
>>Mods are trying to bait Rule8 bans by asking to post the leaked logs as "proofs", so be careful to not get baited

>Also the mods are trying to change the rule 0 in a very questionable way and failing in every try because the changes keep affecting their precious ACAB fanarts

Welcome to the official Equestria Girls Edits thread. The primary objective of this thread is to create, share and ultimately dump decent vector edits of the girls. You can post your own edits, take requests from anons lurking or either make your own requests in hope some editfag takes it and doesn't mess it up.


Contributors are welcome to join and collaborate.
By the way, please consider these tips before posting:
>It is encouraged to create 2 versions of every pic: one with the girl(s) in underwear/lingerie and another naked.
>Post here the one with underwear and upload the naked one to imgur or catbox
>Links to imgur should be direct. Don't link to a imgur page, use the direct image link.
>Use some vectoring software like Illustrator, Inkscape, Photoshop, Gimp, etc. Avoid using Paint.
>It is not required to make the edits barefoot. By the way, every good work is much appreciated.
>Requests are marked with a "/r/" in the post subject.
>If you tell someone you're willling to take some request, finish the job you lazy faggot.
>Your first edit will probably suck. Don't give up. Listen to the comments and keep trying.

Tip for requesters:
>Be patient. It takes a while to complete a picture.

Post, share, edit and enjoy!

How often do you cuddle your plushies?

ITT, let's discuss the future of art preservation and boorus.

The long version:
After recent events, doubts have arose about the continuance of Derpibooru as the premiere image archival site for the fandom. Derpibooru recently went through a period of banning content they didn't agree with. This was brought on by accusations by journalists and twitter posters. Only after thousands of posts against the new policy and dozens of popular artists threatening to boycott the site were the changes reverted. While the offending policies have been removed, it is important for there to be competition in order to both ensure that Derpi is kept in check and that alternatives are available into the future.

TLDR:
There's other options.
-Right now Rainbooru is a good alternative to Derpi. (www.rainbooru.org)
-In the near future we can also look forward to TwiBooru, based on Philomena (from Twifag)
-ZizzyDizzyMC is working on ponybooru based on Philomena. (www.ponybooru.org)
-Another Philomena based booru. (ponerpics.org)

Specialized Boorus:
- booru.foalcon.com (foalcon)
- www.fluffybooru.com (fluffy ponies)
- lyrabooru.org (plushophilia)
- www.bronibooru.com (SFW, no shipping, no non-pony anthro, no translations)

Latest Developments:
-Improvements to Rainbooru, too many to list ^:) (www.rainbooru.org/changelog)
-Twifag and Zizzy making progress with Philomena
-People are looking for alternatives
-Derpi staff overhaul
-Rainbooru and Ponybooru are (almost) fully operational.
-Tools available to import images from Derpi

This is NOT the Derpibooru drama general. Please keep posts relevant to booru development. (>>>/mlp/derpi)

TwAIlight welcomes you to the Pony Voice Preservation Project!
https://clyp.it/tm03e5en

This project is the first part of the "Pony Preservation Project" dealing with the voice.
It's dedicated to saving our beloved pony's voices by creating a neural network based Text To Speech for our favorite ponies.
Videos such as https://youtu.be/GuJKTodX1FA. or https://youtu.be/DWK_iYBl8cA have proven that we now have the technology to generate convincing voices using machine learning algorithms "trained" on nothing but clean audio clips.
With roughly 10 seasons (9 seasons and 5 movies) worth of voice lines available, we have more than enough material to apply this tech for our deviant needs.

https://derpy.me/PHsCn

Any anon is free to join, and many are already contributing. Just read the guide to learn how you can help bring on the wAIfu revolution. Whatever your technical level, you can help.

Synthbot working on story tagger for voiced greentexts (https://synthbot.ai/)

Anon transcribing books and comics

Just how much has Pinkie Pie learned since she started working with the Cakes? Her chores at home didn't really seem to include baking, but her first party had cake and such, so there must have been a book or two around the house. Still, even then, there's probably a reason she struck out with her new living arrangements. And however long she's been in Ponyville, she's been spending at least part of that baking and/or watching Sugarcube Corner.
