My Little Pony: Avatar is Magic (also Adopt-a-Pony)
Welcome Bronies, this is the thread where you request your Pony avatar and us the ponytar artists attempt to please, so post your request. And artists please post which requests you are accepting so I can update the list
And any artist that just wants to show their stuff can draw whatever pony they imagined and post it in this thread for avatar or just picture adoption by anyone who wants. Come on, who doesn't want a pony?
Here is also a link to some pony drawing tutorials.
When requesting a ponytar please be specific in your description, or else what you don't mention is subject to the artist's control. (Which isn't too bad.... or is it? Muahahahaha) The following elements are in consideration:
Gender: Male/Female/other?!?(please no...) Type: Earth pony/Pegasus pony/Unicorn pony/(or Mary Sue Alicorn pony)/Other Coat color Mane color and style Eye color Cutie mark Pose Expressions Accessories or costumes
----------------------------
If you are desperate for ponytar here is a link to a flash pony generator that You can do a screen capture then resize for a ponytar, the GiTP forum avatar size is 120x120 pixels.
Update:
Hi guys,
It's wonderful that there are so many of you that want a Ponytar. And I assure you, your requests are not forgotten and unseen. As much as I wish otherwise, the other ponytar artists and I can only draw so fast.
So please don't keep reposting your request, it makes it a bit confusing to keep track of the order of requests coming in and also any changes that you may have decided to update. Please make any changes you want to your descriptions(if it isn't being worked on already) on your original post.
If you really are worried that you are being skipped over or that any changes made are not noticed, and that you must repost your requests, please just use a simple url linking to your original post.
I'll update my request here with the other parameters you mentioned in the OP.

The stuff you'd need to know:
Spoiler
Life-in-Death from the Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Female pony, dark blue or red body. Half-skeletal face. Black mane and tail, modeled after Rarity's. Golden lemniscate (infinity symbol) for a cutie mark.
Give her a pair of dice and she is set.
Pose/expression: laughing.
Given the nature of the character, it will have to be a goddess pony, so unicorn pegasus.

*sigh* I need a pony avatar. Thanks for the pony request thread. I'm a lot less nervous/etc. requesting it here, where I don't feel like I need something important to contribute.
Gender: Male Type: Earth pony Coat color: Green, like that of the common Fullbladder avatar. Mane color: Red. Ish. Reddish. Eye Colour: Yellow. Cutie mark: Retro-futuristic Ray Gun Pose: Basic standing pose, looking around (head facing behind him) Expressions: Villainous smile. Accessories: Acetylene Torch (unlit), light purple suit collar (as seen here on Horte Cuisine), welding goggles (worn loose around neck, in place of bowtie)
Thanks to whoever takes this up.

Her lips were red, her looks were free,

The Nightmare Life-in-Death was she,
Who thicks man’s blood with cold.

yaa... I am not too happy with this one......
What the hay is a Green Grow?
You know, I like it very much. I know it doesn't really match the poem, but it is a pony and so things sort of go our the window there.
Thanks a lot!

I keep quoting your posts. But they might not mean what I think they do...
I understand my avatar request may or may not be underway already, and if it is already being worked on, then please ignore this post, as it will be listing minute differences from my original concept.
Gender: Male Type: Royal pony (essentially the Alicorn) Coat color White Mane color and style White, long (roughly mid-leg) Cutie mark Elaborate, possibly cursive, green X with a silver sword running down the middle, not cutting the letter in half but kind of between the lines. Pose Not sure how best to phrase it, but in mid-leap with wings open, as if preparing to fly. Expressions Stoic/Aloof/srsface :P His eyes should be lacking irises or pupils. Accessories or costumes A cloak, with hood bunched up as if it was thrown back during the take-off. Not sure if it could work, but possibly a belt along his flank with a sword.
Again, this is kind of a drastic change, if only for the fact of greater detail. Do feel free to ignore this post if work is already underway, I will be happy with whatever I receive.

Well...I guess to take some of the workload off his shoulder...could I request one from you, Alarra?
Here's the description I gave way back then.
I would like a pony with a keyboard-and-mouse cutie mark, who has fallen asleep at a computer with his head landed on the keyboard. Blue body with just a hint of green, blonde hair, and honestly any kind of pony would do. If an Earth Pony is easier, that'd be fine.
And no, I will not tell you how he types with hooves.

Thanks to whoever takes this up.
If there's anything you're unhappy with, tell me and I'll do my best to fix it.
Name: Spearmint (usually just 'Mint'-- full name if he's in trouble ) Gender: Male Appearance: Mint is a light green earth pony with fur the color of mint icecream. His mane a few shades darker green, and tends to be matted and 'bed head' looking. Mint always looks a little sickly, and yawns often, but he's never without a small, tired smile. Cutie Mark: A single raindrop. Skills: Herbalist; Mint has a vast knowledge of different herbal remedies, as well as some basic first-aid ability, acquired in his search for a cure for his condition. Biography: Mint was born with a rare chemical imbalance that makes it difficult for him to stay awake; combined with at least minor allergies to just about everything under the sun, Mint was very sickly as a young colt and for a few years it was not sure he would survive. Mint refused to allow his condition to squash his love of life, however, and grew quickly, determined to find a way to beat his maladies and enjoy life to its fullest. Just because they make him sneeze doesn't stop him from stopping to smell the flowers along the way. So far he has not found the magic cure, but is able to function by chewing the stems of the plant after which he was named. As well as providing a minor stimulant, the Spearmint stems help relieve his allergies-- and make him smell pleasantly crisp wherever he goes. Personality: Mint is quiet and agreeable, but possessed of a willpower greater than his looks suggest. He's not an intellectual, and anything more than basic math confuses him (long devision is right out), but he has a strong common sense and thinks quickly on his feet. Even though he does sometimes wish he had been born healthy, he is not jealous of the other ponies and doesn't grudge them for his circumstances. Mint always learns from his mistakes, and doesn't get depressed even when things go against him-- the sun will always come out after the rain. Relationships: Open for relationships! Picture: (Requesting!)
I'd like him sniffing a drooping flower, if that's ok.
