Hello and welcome to the Desktop Ponies Team. We make animations for the Desktop Ponies application which allow these cute little ponies to run all over your desktop. Feel free to watch us and if you know how to sprite, add some animations which can be submitted on our ponychan thread. - Group membership - This group is for members who have contributed to the project and created animations that were included in the program. Please don't ask us to let you join this group if you haven't contributed anything yet. Instead, go to our ponychan thread (linked below) and see how you can help out. Or you could always just watch us instead.  - Requests - This group does not accept requests. If you want us to make a pony for you or add a certain character to the program, you should visit the individual members' accounts and check if they are open for suggestions or requests. - Desktop Ponies download - You can always find the newest version of our program in our ponychan thread.  Our Ponychan thread.
 - Templates & Tutorials - Please make sure to read our terms of use as detailed below.  You can download our templates pack here.Direct link to base pony download with tutorial video.- Notable Links - Our Ponychan thread. You can download the program here. This is also the place to go if you want to contribute, report bugs or have other questions about the program. Our OC collection (last updated sometime in 2015).   All these sprites are fan made and fall under the CC BY-NC-SA 3.0, therefore people cannot charge money or receive it (via donations or voluntary payment) at all.

So it seems that there is a lot of confusion about what is and is not allowed to do with our sprites. Some are under the impression that anything goes with them while some are scared that because we asked a few people to stop doing some things with our sprites that all uses of them are banned. That is not the case.
Our sprites are free use for non commercial purposes.
This means you can
*Make trot cycle ponies for yourselves or friends, just do not try to get anything out of it like money or points or what have you even if it is through voluntary donations. Also, please credit us, don't say you created it out from nothing.
*You can use our sprites in non-profit games or videos. Please just put us in the credits somewhere and once again keep it free for the community. We love seeing our stuff being used and enjoyed by everyone.
*You can edit existing ponies to make new poses, ponies, interactions, etc, but please give credit to the original animator. We made the bases to be used so please use them, but don't repost them as your own. Plus if you work on a canon pony, if they are done well enough you can have them put in the program itself. We like having new members and enjoy seeing the creativity of everyone here.
The one thing we don't like seeing are others stealing from us or trying to profit off unsuspecting or unknowing individuals. Desktop Ponies was made to be used freely by everyone so please keep it free and credit the individuals who work hard to make these like you should any other artist who's work you use or modify.

Can I have help please? I downloaded the file and unzipped it but I'm not sure what to do next?! 
I've been making desktop ponies for a while now, from canon characters to ponyfied characters of video games or other media.
Would I be allowed to join?
A couple of my examples:

Hey there, I made a desktop pony (using Sir colton vine's sprites) But every time I try to set them inside and run them it keeps giving an error that says ''Index lies outside matrixborders'' anyone know how to fix that? Thanks in advance!
I'm thinking of doing a Pony Flash Movie. I'll give credit if I use any Desktop Pony Sprites. I'm sure you'd love to see them in a sprite movie or something.
