That was beautiful and heart-warming. I loved it!

That was awesome!

Oh for the love of- Check out what I just found >_< 45 seconds into Feeling Pinkie Keen Hmm, the body looks thinner when sitting down. Also the back legs splay out wider than I expected. Still, this is precisely what I was after ^^:

Yeah, I think I can use this. I was looking for somepony with her front hooves on the ground but this should be okay. Thanks Riverhippo. ^^

Thanks for looking Tcat, but it's not quite what I'm after. I need a pony seen from the front, with her body facing the viewer. No worries, though, thanks for the help.

Here's a thought: why not ask Applejack's player for a Private RP between you before joining the board proper, and play out Bow-Tie and Applejack's first meeting all those years ago? Doing an RP set in the past should be okay if it's on the Private RP section, right? Then, once the RP is finished, you go on the main boards and Bow-Tie returns to meet her old friend. Private RP still counts as board "canon" doesn't it? Would this be possible?

Hey all. So I'm learning to draw ponies for a little project I'm working on. It's tricky, seeing as how I suffer from a debilitating condition known as "being unable to draw my way out of a paper bag". Luckily I have plenty of tutorials and references to help me along, and I'm using Flash to draw; being able to tweak the vectors make things easier. But I'm kinda stuck on one thing. I need a reference pic of a pony sitting down, facing the viewer. Preferably a pegasus, so I can see how the wings look, but I'm mostly using it to see how the legs go. It's remarkably hard to find something like this. Would any of you have a pic like this anywhere, either as a screengrab or a fanart that's as close to the original style as possible? If it's a pic of Luna, that's a bonus

Welcome to Canterlot! Lurking is no fun at all. I hope you enjoy your stay!

Huh. Thinking about it (and after watching Boast Busters again), Rarity and Trixie both have spells that twilight has yet to copy. Rarity has her fashion show special effects from "Suited for Success" and the topiary spell from "Look Before You Sleep". And Trixie had all her flashy illusions plus her weather control powers, which I don't think Twilight has done. So yeah... more like that in Season 2 please

If we're going by fanon interpretations I'd go with Derpy. Pinkie is random, but mostly in predictable ways, if that makes sense. She breaks the 4th wall, she references cupcakes, she acts happy and kooky. Standard, for the most part. Derpy....

Ooh, I'm intrigued. And it looks like I've been approved for RP just in time ^^ Hmm, question: Are foals allowed at this Gala? I didn't see any in ep 26, but my only char is Diamond Tiara... Can she get in? Maybe with a chaperone? Absolutely. <3 I love the idea of a chaperone, perhaps you can coordinate with someone? Of course, if things dont work out you can come yourself (just bring an imaginary parent ;}). This Gala is for everypony; even foals should be able to find things to marvel at, and have a wonderful time. Just imagine the sweets!

Stuff I'd like to see... A little development on some of the background ponies. Nothing much, just maybe give them official names and standardise their voices. Decent voices please (Bon-bon and Caramel, I'm looking at you! ¬_¬). Admittedly part of the fun of fanon is making this stuff up, but having something more would be nice. And give Lyra and Derpy/Ditzy some lines dagnabbit! Some more of the male ponies would be nice, particularily Big Macintosh. One of the main facets of AJ's personailty is her devotion to her family, and we haven't really seen too much of that yet, beyond being overprotective of her sister and trying to raise money for Granny's hip. More Big Mac screentime would help with that. Plus he's awesome. Eeeyup Seeing unicorns besides Twilight doing some cool magic stuff. It's not like she's the only one who's talent is magic. There's a whole magic school in Canterlot after all. In "a dog and pony show" I was so happy to see Rarity use her gem finding spell. "Yes!", I said, "Finally a pony uses a spell Twilight doesn't have!" Minutes later: "Goddamn it Twilight!" *sigh* I guess she still has her topiary spell But yeah, even if it's just a background pony casting a unique spell or something. This is a magical world after all. Naturally I'm looking forward to the return of Luna. Plus I'm positive they will bring back Trixie at least once. Might be nice to see some other minor characters back like Braeburn or Gilda. Not really expecting that though. But we do need more Zecora.

Happy Birthday to you both!

I TOLD YOU PRINCESS I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE MOON IT KEEPS HAPPENING Seriously though, welcome aboard!

So I found these over on the giantitp.com forums. They look pretty decent to me.

Well I read the whole thing. I really liked the story, certainly kept my attention, and believe me, that's hard to do That said, it could use a little tuning-up in places. I'm not much for poetry I must admit, so please excuse me if I say something dumb. There are a few lines that just don't rhyme, such as in paragraph 3 when you rhyme "am" with "came", or paragraph 9 with "office" and "lawless". Also there are a few points where the flow seems off to me, mainly due to where the pauses are. i.e. To me, the pause in the first line comes too late, and so the second seems off. Re-reading it I can see where you were going with it, but it's hard to know the speed it's meant to be read at to keep it flowing smoothly. This might just be a formatting thing though. I do hope I don't sound like I'm nitpicking. You did ask for feedback. I really do like this, I just think it could use some tweaking ^^:

Welcome!

Welcome to the boards!

That was actually really good! I say send it in.

I just saw this on ED, figured it wasn't worth making a new topic. Daniel Ingram does a quick TV interview. Go to Part 2 and skip to about 2.30.

Welcome to Canterlot!

Welcome to Canterlot!

Frankly this sounds suspect at best. I doubt simply switching to a healthier diet can get rid of tinnitus. Likewise exercising and avoiding stress, while good advice, seems suspicious, especially considering that tinnitus has such a wide range of causes. I'd personally be quite wary of anything on the internet that calls itself a "miracle". Frankly I'd be more inclined to try electrocuting myself first Oh and for the record, yes, I do have a mild form of tinnitus. Too much loud music
