Deviantart is worse IMO.

I think Deviantart is worse. It has most of the same problems, and then a few more.

Yeah, DA isn't the best for comics either. I really can't think of any free wecomic hosts off the top of my head.

What about Derpiboou?

Derpibooru would be maybe on par with Deviantart? Not sure, still think Tumblr would be the best option of those put forth.

http://www.drunkduck.com/ is a pretty decent free webcomic host.

And is actually designed primarily for webcomics.

Smackjeeves, keenspot if it still exists... Drunkduck.

The Duck looks great! Just what I need!

Thank you so much.

I'd honestly stick with tumblr. Derpibooru is a terrible place to actually host anything. It's a repository. Tumblr has a long history of pony stuff though, which means more potential readers, unlike that duck place. Your other best bet would be to use Deviantart and make sure to manually put in links from one strip to the next.

''Twilight, Fluttershy - 20~22

Pinkie Pie - 19~21 (I'd assume that she is the youngest)

Applejack - 23~25

Rainbow Dash 22~25

Rarity - 24~27 (I'd assume that she is the oldest)''

Uhm, no, Dash can't be that old, and not just for mentality but for body type and voice too (yes, if you can't understand the age of a pony through body type, try the voice). Also, I don't think Twi is that old too (I'd say 19-20). Bt I agree with Rarity being the oldest, with AJ only a little younger (they're the most mature both in voice and mentally speaking: think about it, of all the ponies they're the one who have the most outo-control of their emotions).

I don't think the "no long history of pony stuff" will be that much of a problem. Having so much pony tends to make further pony go unnoticed.

Your best bet, I think, would be to host the comic itself on a dedicated webcomic host (or build a site for it yourself), but have a tumblr on the side to promote the comic. Post non-comic art there, and stuff like that.

For example, see how Mary Cagle runs Kiwi Blitz.

He could still make a tumblr to post updates. It's just easier to read the thing on a site built to host comics.

EDIT: And ninja'd.

Also, Derpibooru crashes far too often.

@Kimba All of the ponies have the same body type. That's not an option for determining age. As for voice, once you're an adult, your voice doesn't change that much. Considering that all of the mane six are at least adults, their voice doesn't factor into their age at all.

That's a good idea Meta.

I could use the tumblr to test ideas and do silly/cool non-canonical stuff related to it on the side.

is this from an actual episode? If yes, please tell me what episode!

And, as Jteeth noted, link to updates.

First of all, OH DEAR LORD WHY!? Second of all of course it's not from an actual episode and third of all OH GOD WHY!??

is this from an actual episode? If yes, please tell me what episode!

It's fanart. Don't want to give the kids nightmares, after all.

Why would you ever think that was from the show? *shudders*

Oh yeah, that.

@P.Lurker I know they have the same body type, that's why you have to count on the voice (and yes, in the show it's different, if you listen to their younger selves in CM Chronicles.

@ kimba

Are you new btw?

There's probably some alternate universe where the show's all like that.

Oh, and avatar switch, because everyone/everypony loves burrowing penguins.
