Description
UPDATE 9/28/2017!!Blessed and Exclusive Traits are being added, but probably no pictures as there could be endless!
Not everything is marked on the trait guide so I moved the trait guide here!
I hope everything here is clear and understandable, just let me know if you need help ;o;
I didn't have room to label everything plus it would have looked cluttered too!
1. Any pony/horse style art is accepted!
2. This species do not have cutie marks, please don't draw them!
3. They will never have back legs, or pony/horse tails.
4. They HAVE to have some type of accessory/trinket around the base of their tail.
All fins and sails need to all look the same for common traits, for rare traits the fins/sails don't have to match but all still have the two bright color gradient, example: the sail fin is green/yellow gradient while the tail fin and small fins are blue/purple gradient.
Key:
Body
The base of the body has to be a natural color or any shade of light or dark colors. No gradients on the body or in the hair! Any markings can be on the body! = natural or pastel body colors
= none
= none
= scales, fur, glowing markings, sparkles all over body, feathers
Fins
The fins can never be natural colors, including black or white. Must always have at least 2 different colors in the gradient. Rare traits if the sail and fins seperate are different colors example: the sail fin is green/yellow gradient while the tail fin and small fins are blue/purple gradient. = regular fins, regular sail, 2 colors used to make a gradient
= holes in fins, ripped fins,
= small jewelry hanging from fins, crystal fins, frill fins, 3 gradient colors
= double sets of fins, glowing fins, fur fins, 3+ gradient colors, Beta fins/tail
Eyes = normal eye, slit eyes,
= colored schlera, pupiless
= No pupil/iris, heterchromia (two diff colored eyes)
= glowing, shaped pupils, gradient eyes
Front Legs = common hoofs
= fur/fetlocks around hoofs
= hoofs made of pearl
= hoofs made of birthstone (excluding pearl), wings on hoofs
Horns = no horns
= devil horns
= ram horns, broken horns, antlers
= unicorn horn
Tails = regular mermaid tails
= flippers
= frill tails, shark tails
= beta tails, wings on tails
:thumb626381683:
Wings = No Wings
= No Wings
= feathered, bat, insect, fairy, etc.
= double wings, heterchromia wings (as in one wing feather one wing bat)
:thumb626381683:
Mane
Cannot have a gradient mane because sails are already gradient! = can be any hairstyle, but one single color
= can have two colors in mane that are striped but not gradient!
= no hair
= fins replaced by mane,

NEWLY ADDED TRAITS! = Blessed Traits
This is basically a blessed trait that's rarer than Legendary. Still coming up with idea's for this but one of the trait will be your Seafin will have a "opal/rainbow" sheen to their design. This will not be sold in the shop and will mainly be in auctions. As it is a super rare trait we want it to be hard to get. = Exclusive Traits
This is as rare as Blessed traits and rarer than Legendary. These are traits you will see on Seafins that are abnormal. For example: extra limbs, heads, animal traits like a cat-tail, bug arms, bug eyes, etc. Just things you would never expect to see on a Seafin. These will come out more around the holidays as auctions. Rarely used in DTA's/Raffles.

Er, no. Here to correct some things. Merponies are described as a mermaid pony, yes? That is a concept of a fish and a pony, a fusion species if you will. That is not a copyrighted or owned concept, it is two creatures fused, you can not copyright that concept. This concept is free for anybody to use however they want to.
Such as werewolves. There are werewolves like in Twilight, and there are werewolves like in The Wolf Man, both are the same man and wolf fusion concept, both are both different in the respects and both have full right to use this concept how they wish, they are not breaking any laws or standards.
Anyone who is willingly paying to use or create a pony of the species, I guarantee acknowledges that there are species similar that existed before this one did. They are consenting to this with the knowledge, they're not being deceived or stolen from.
This species does no harm to you, nor anybody else. If you don't like the species, you're free to that opinion, and to not interact with it. But your comment was unnecessary and unfairly rude, and your spelling needs correcting but considering you're probably in the 11-14 range I won't bother. Not to mention, your jingle pony species isn't the most original thought out concept, so I don't really understand why you feel the need to come here acting tough.

The purpose of a closed species, is to have an original concept to be credited to yourself.
An example would be Kelpies from MLP. They took hippocampus species and added their own concept and ideas to it. Thus in the rules of trademarks and such, it is legal and you can see how popular they are.
Same goes for Seafins. There is many concepts added into the seafins who, just like kelpies, took an idea from the hippocampus genus.
Concepts and ideas is a very hard subject to "trademark" but if we would go upon what you consider to be "stolen" or "copied", more than 90% of all art and closed species would be considered copied one way or another.
Art is endless, art is amazing, but you should never try and make yourself feel powerful by trying to push other people down.
Also, if you think this is "copied". go look up "OFFBRAND" species. THEY copy because they don't believe that closed species should be sold so high. Which is their opinion but they are stealing and making a profit./
Now I know this might be too long for you to read all, cause you might be mad or annoyed, which I understand, reading all of you comments really annoyed me, but we need to understand that if art isn't hurting anyone and isn't going against art law, then just let it be and don't even comment.

It might not have a cat tail and a mouse face but it's original in my own mind and people love it.
Hippocampus have been around way before merponies so basically merponies copied them.

I don't mean to hate on the species.. but aren't these just Kelpies?
Horses with fins are already a mythical creature so why make it a closed species?
I'm sorry if I come of as rude

Jahpan In reply to Nighticrawler [2017-08-29 16:46:13 +0000 UTC]
These look like merponies/hippocampus's!?
These species are different because there is alot of different traits that make them unique. They are based off the mythical creature hippocampus but they have their differences.

it might just be my own opinnion but I don't think it's quiet enough to make it a closed species.. but I guess as long as you don't hurt people that make Pony characters with fish tails everything is fine.

Sigh-
the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.

oh okay.
After we can say plagered of all subject in all the goal is to put a touch creative and a universe unique
for exemple exist before with tf/ tg transformation, in little story. but i decide to create a universe with it and a story about it and fusion.
The closed species is no unique but it is the use and the creative power and inspiration .
but it is a long debate, and i think she try to create a new merpony with a new organisation trait , same it look same it the first think
(same i according it is little copying and say closed species is a little horrible, but after it look a including in a big story only these character and no other why not ... but well i think all perople can create a new merpony with a new original story and new closed species for him and friend only i can't say plagued because it is a isolation group )
after i understand the reason of person to stop closed species like
from
after the seasons is more popular and touch pony, so it more impact and reactions negative , for say it is stupid to close and no other can not do other merpony
A solution i find like it to accept the fan-art and propose MYo with no money - point but with art / even mYO i organised , same give MYO for person who want to create their first humalos.
