Different pony for the loading thing

Would require custom-written coding and other techno-bullshit, which has never been the strong suit of the site's staff team x)

Not because we don't have people who can do it, but because there's always way too much stuff to do on that front, and nowhere near enough people qualified. So the people who do code end up being bogged down doing the vitals, never having time to make 'for fun' things like what this topic suggests.

But if it could be done, that'd hopefully stop the redundant 'we should have a different loading pony' suggestion topic from being remade by someone new every other month.

If you didn't have a preference to choose which pony you prefer, then it might be a lot easier to implement. Just have a pool of pony animations (e.g. one for each mane 6 character), and then when a page is loading, randomly select one.

 

That would require changing maybe 2 or 3 lines of Javascript, and probably no back end coding. It would also make it more fun for users. Until you click the button, you never know which animation you're going to get. You can add animations whenever you like, and retire some when you think there are too many. You can have votes about which retired animations should be brought back for a limited time only. You can auction the right to have your OC added to the animations pool for a whole year, to raise money for the site, or for charity.

 

And so on, and so forth. It could become a fun feature.

, that would be an easier method to implement and satisfy more people.  I have a feeling that the best way to go about it is @keyframes

I agree with Vital Sparkle, but I also want the 3 princesses (not counting twilight sparkle since she is technically counted as mane 6). Maybe everypony's favorite mailmare! .... after that Im thinking everything is kosher (good).
