  1. Oh also forgot to mention, if you shop welovefine, 2 coupon codes: Bronyville10 and Equestria10 will give 10% discount (only one can be used at a time, dont know if you can use them multiple times if you place multiple orders, so I posted both)
  2. Depending on your PC and TV, you can probably hook it up as a 2nd display. I've watched HD movies on my HD TV without issue in the past... But I agree, glad to see DVDs being released, hopefully we'll get full seasons instead of 'theme' packs soon! @ DashieInTheDark: BluRay is fine and dandy if you can play it. Only BD player I've had was my PS3 (which I had to sell to pay the bills) and honestly I can think of very few friends of mine that have BD players, so really it's still not as wide of a demographic. Also you *can* do widescreen on a DVD, though I dont know how much more space(MB) it takes so it might not be an option for these... and personally I highly doubt they're going to do it widescreen anyway unless it's a lot cheeper not to convert it.
  3. I find myself drawn to the simplicity of the Rarity one... odd as she's my least-favorite pony (not that I dont like her, she's just TOO dramatic and too Snobby for me) The first word that popped into my head when I saw the Dash one was "Radical!" lol I suddenly wish I'd finished learning guitar so many years ago... lol
  4. redbubble has a larger selection, but if you want to support MLP, welovefine is the official store. Also, just ordered my Wonderbolts shirt tonight! woot!
  5. Sorry I thought you mean the humor --- site rules forbid the discussion of piracy...
  6. An example of the humor of of another HD Pony site?
  7. I enjoy the humor if the message, yes they're angry and yes they were inapropriate, but the wording is humerus, not to mention their prior letter to Hasbro. I didnt mean it's funny that the site was taken down, I meant their replies were funny. (keep in mind the replies are PG-13 rated due to language)
  8. D'awwwwww sweepy widdle Dashie... so cute
  9. Wow... Inappropriate but funny... Sad to see them shut down, but... There are still other HD sites with Pony if you surf around...
  10. I'm getting the "Wonderbolts: Ride the Lightning" http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=880 And "20% cooler in 10 Seconds Flat" http://www.redbubble.com/people/kidomaga/works/7542886-20-cooler-in-10-seconds-flat On a slightly more arrogant level: http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=923 Also, no I'm not Seth but I do love these two: "It's magic I ain't gotta explain anything" http://www.redbubble.com/people/strangetalk/works/7787061-trixie-aint-gotta-explain-clean and also the "Promo Poster" http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1365
  11. Maybe I'm missing something, but I just did a youtube search and the video's available on both Everfree-Radio's channel and Mando's channel So go enjoy some adorable carol-hijacking!
  12. Oh Gawd, sandworms... I wonder if such monsters exist in Equestria... *scribbles notes* Well in MY equestria they do! lol (thanks for the inspiration!) I like it, I think it's a little expansive, but then again Dunes is sorta one of the main characters, so... (And an explanation for how he got it would be easy - he got lost in the dessert and found out he coudl survive untill he made his way back home!) It also gives him a job, he can be a Guide as well as a food/water scavenger! This is brilliant! THANK YOU!
  13. Me also, Server's been empty all day (was I the only one getting on?) then at like 11:00 or 11:30 (before 12:00) I tried to log in and got an error. (Times are EST)
  14. I've developed a new theory for why the episode was made: People have long since chided Dash for being too arrogant, but when you have a character who's already ~17ish it's hard to change their basic characterization. I believe this was part of a 2-part arc, starting with May the Best Pet Win, to inflate Dash's ego enough that they could grind her into the ground so hard it made a permanent change to her character. If you notice since then she's been noticably more humble (though certainly she still has some arrogance, it's just not nearly as strong and she doesnt brag as much)
  15. Geeze you sure get around, I've seen you on so many different websites over the years (assuming your the same Webkilla, since your Avatar has never changed) I might post direct asnwers below, but right now I did want to point out that while Bronies have no centralized leadership, etc, there are 2 main websites, "Equestria Daily" and "Ponychan" these seem to the the larges hub of information and communication (though for some of us the latter is just TOO big) the First is mainly a blog of all things MLP, including art, music, fanfiction, and any official news. 1) How old are you and on what continent do you live? (europe, north america, australia, africa, south america...) -26, Male, North America (Georgia, USA) 2) What does it mean, to you personally, to be a brony? -Being a part of the fandom. If you just like the show your simply a "fan" if you take part in the community (in whatever way) then you are a Brony 3) Are you a brony? if so, for how long? -Yes, to large means! I finally watched the show in Early November (after much proding and forcing, It took a LOT of convincing because of the stigma left from G1-G3 MLP) The first 7 minutes I didnt care one way or another (and almost turned it off at one point) but once I met Rainbow Dash I was hooked, after seeing episode 5(?) "winter Wrap Up" that made me love the series enough to join the community. 4) How do you personally express being a brony? (through art, roleplaying, give your car rainbow stripes, socializing with other bronies, etz) -I do some art (hopeing to expand into full animation), a lot of Fanfic (mostly outlines at this point but will be far more) All my devices have pony images as backgrounds (Mainly Rainbow Dash), I'm planning to get a RD plastic figuine to live in my Car among my other plushies there as well as a RD decal for the window (so jelous of the guy who redid his Charger(?) in Rainbow Dash theme, would do it if I had a better car and the $$$), I enjoy socilizing on forums like this one, and I *may* roleplay in the future, but right now all my creativity is going to other sources. I also watch Equestria Daily and listen to the weekly "Bronyville" podcast. On the far extreme I'm also planning a MLP cosplay, hopefully for Dragon*Con. I just wanted to point out that I used to be deep into the old Sonic the Hedgehog fandom (years ago before all the different plotlines merged, dropped out around the turn of the mellineum) and after I left there was a proverbial hole in my soul that the Bronies have filled beautifully (and to some extent, more so because they're not as judgemental as the old StH fandom was) 5) Are there any aspects of brony culture/communities/expression that you do not agree with/like? (something you don't like, or dont feel match the way you understand it is to be a brony) -Not overall, I'm not a fan of the major shipping between the mane 6 in art/fics, but overall nothing I really dont like. (discounting the fact Hasbro wont try to throw us a bone and at least make the toys show-acurate, but that's not the community)
  16. awww, not showing up for me T_T (literally all I see is the text)
  17. Just wanted to say it's an interesting idea, if it works out well, please post a log! (at least an abridged one?)
  18. Looking for a good MLP wallpaper (Preferably RD) that works on an Android Phone (EVO 4G) --- Android chops the wallpaper into 5 parts so most end up looking... silly... because it only shows the center 1/5th most of the time...
  19. I really wish I could remember the Author, one of the best juvenile series I ever read was "My Teacher is an Alien" to this day I still quote the Alien philosophy on humans: "Most (alien races) are so busy rejoicing (at learning they are not alone in the universe) they forget to be afraid, while humans are so afraid they forget to rejoice" (paraphrased) Incredibly deep philosophy for a juvenile book series. On that note, I sometimes will look at the old Picture Books because some of the artwork is absolutely fantastic (I daresay some is worthy of framing in a few)
  20. I'm too busy to look it up thanks to 3 PCs deciding to screw up at once... What's the initial cost and the monthly fee? (is there a free trial?)
  21. After reading your review I'm gonna give it a try when I have the $$$ O_o The graphics are THAT good? I must have missed something, but then I'm not a very big clopper at all and with what you said and what my friend said, I guess some SW geeks would find this clop-worthy... just... really... sounds... wrong...
  22. WOAH WOAH WOAH! I was NOT trying to derail the topic like this! Nor was I trying to say anything about Hasbro's legalities on the Pony Archive issue (that's covered in it's own thread, I have several posts there) My only point was that Hasbro is sending mixed messages, I was hoping people would stop to think about it and say "Maybe they're finding their footing, trying to balance the fans and the show/profits" My only question of Legality comes from if Hasbro has the legal right to take down the videos that the VAs made that had nothing to do with the show (that is, were not written by Hasbro and were never used in the show or any associated promotional material) My personal view is this is no different than any of us on here doing the voice and singing, but with it being the official VA... ??? @ Weesh: It wasnt actually a video (atleast what I saw) it had Mando start singing Jingle Bells, then after the first verse the music changed to rock and we hear Scootaloo take over and Mando is protesting "Scootaloo! Stop that! That's not how it goes!" It was ALL in-character as Scootaloo
  23. You could actually play off the three as "ok, we're stuck here, we have to work together!" Dash takes care of flying, Twilight does magic, and Pinky does... pinky stuff, to keep the Zebra convinced that Dash is celestia. Also if you want to take the death joke a step further, have everything go southward and Somone deduce "we may have died, but we didnt go to heaven, we went to hell!" If you want to be cheasy about it, you could always have the real celestia save the day, or just to really screw everyone, have LUNA decide to come visit the zebra! "Oh Princess Luna, your sister is here as well!" all the meantime the trio then has to lay low and avoid luna untill they can work out a plan to escape...
  24. Personally, I think you need either AJ or Twilight (or even Spike) there to help ground the group and provide a voice of reason "Your not celestia! your going to get us all in DEEP trouble!" because unless Dash/Pinky get homesick, I have no doubt they would stay there forever. (unless that's the ultimate plan) Also I want to point out something here that I see as a potential symbolism that I dont think is on purpose. The pair is mugged and thrown into the river, then end up in Paradice. Translation: The group dies and goes to heaven. I dont think that is what you intended (though if it is, kudos on slipping it in!) so you might want to reconsider just how you transport them from manehatten to paradice... Just my inicial thoughts, I'll think about it more later and give you some more in-depth suggestions
  25. I could be wrong, but I seem to recall a post on ED that Applebloom's VA and Sweetybelle's VA also did something like this and it got taken down by Hasbro...?
