Now I was on the deviantART group page yesterday night and noticed that a ponies in real life photo had been added to the gallery. I got confused. Only because in the rules it says they are not allowed. Now I didn't make this to try to get it removed, I think that since it's already in the gallery it should stay. So I have two questions: Are ponies IRL photos allowed? If they aren't, why are they not allowed?
Now I don't know if it's seen that these are easy, because they aren't. There is an exception though, the products in my "Ponies IRL Requests" sometimes aren't the best, and I say they will be done in the quickest manner possible in the original post. But the ones that I would be posting to dA would be ones that I had taken a lot of time in making.
This is an example of one that took quite a bit of time, and you can still see very minor flaws. 2 hours to find the arms, find the head, vector one of the arms, crop it in, shade it, and blur it in the appropriate spots.
Another example.
From what I heard, marco23p put a lot of time in it, and its outcome is outstanding:
