This time the task is to: "
Draw a pony chilling // Draw a pony doing their favorite hobby". Right. 9_9
As always, draw (or sculpt or do a photo-montage), host the image of what you made in an online gallery and drop the URL into the
submission form here, it's live. King Grimlock does not specifying the prompt in the submitter, but otherwise it's the usual: you can enter five different images per prompt. The maximum resolution is 2000x2000 pixels, so chose a link from your gallery that points to a version of your image that does not exceed 2,000 pixels on either side. Also, don't exceed 4 Mb per picture or the poniloader will plotz and choke on your picture. MLPforums and Discord work as image hosts in a pinch, although I think that there's an expiry date on those options. Xitter works somehow, it looks like Mastodon does, probably Bluesky as well, if you're savvy and Imgur apparently works too. I use Flickr. The pictures will be visible on EqD along with the next task at 9 PM (MST) on June 14th. My guess was right last time! So, I think that it will be this:

So be sure to get your drawings in well before 9 PM Mountain Standard Time (or midnight Eastern Daylight Savings Time and 5 AM UTC). The grace period should give you at least two extra days and KG goes back to edit in the late submissions, usually around the same time he posts the next prompt. KG can and does change the close date on the submitter and keeps just two active at any given moment. I don't think there will be any late submission catch-up days in this NATG.
Off topic submissions, more than was usual in past years, are showing up in the gallery. That's because King Grimlock is also posting what Calpain is prompting on Bluesky in his fringe NATG and people have been hybridizing this NATG with it. Calpain's prompts today are pony paying a terrible price / pony facing the music.
