Florid looks fine so far, but I can't evaluate just a picture.

Well... I can, but I won't be able to say anything particularly meaningful.
So far the picture is fine. The freckles are a good touch to that relaxed demeanor he carries. His mane is soft and does not distract from the character, although his tail seems to have a deviant red stripe that his mane does not have or even hint at, for some reason. His vest is simple and isn't excessive, especially since it looks like it ties to his special talent somehow. His name is also simple, which I prefer in pony names. On the other hoof, I'm willing to bet 10 bits that he is a flambouyant pony, simply because his name is a synonym for the word. Still, Florid is an uncommon word, so you should be safe from being too predictable by your readers.

I would still like to see some information about him, though.

I'll try to sum him up in a nutshell.

Personality wise Florid is what you would call a "dapper dan man" (or pony in this case) Well groomed, well mannered, polite, mostly selfless, an all around gentlepony, and a 'little' obsessed with his appearance but not flamboyant about it. He tends to wear countless outfits but his shirt 'n vest combo being his more 'iconic' outfit. I won't lie I've changed him up a bit once because his original design ( http://i.imgur.com/3P1IQCT.png ) beginning to look a tad iffy to me and he was a bit of a rushed OC. In honesty I'd probably turn his coat to a brown instead now and remove the streak from him  tail.
