  1. Are you certain you aren't accidentally pressing the html editing button in the upper left? doing that will take away all the other options (by greying them out) You can click the same button to leave that option. Other than that, I'd have no suggestions- definetly start with Artax's of trying out a new browser to see if it replicates
  2. I confess... 1) My first post on this forum was for a Mane Cast character- not an introduction. I got the character, and never did make an introduction until I made staff. 2) As far as any fandom i have ever seen- fancannon in this one has been amazing. Derpy, Dr. Whooves, Lyra and Bon Bon, Berry Punch, Pinchy, Dinky- I love how extensive the community has drawn out community created characters- how solid in identity they have become, and how much genuine affection there are for these characters. Sure, not everyone likes them, but overall; the result *is* pretty amazing. 3) The show has reminded me that while I live in an adult world with adult responsibilities, that growing into an adult does NOT mean you have to kill your emotions and happiness. That friendship, love, tolerance, and just plain good innocent fun is something adults do want, can share, and should enjoy. The problem isn't with me, its with the world. I confess having forgotten that until this show proved me wrong- so glad it did. 4) My favorite pony seems to change day to day, but my least favorite is consistently Pinkie Pie. Still like her, but not crazy about her.
  3. My OC is certainly not based off of me. I made sure to give her some flaws that I dont actually have; i'm curious to try to live through the world through her eyes. I also gave her some strengths I dont possess. I think, her dreams may be similar to some secret desires of my own though. I've always felt a quiet but powerful deep longing to search out the mysterious places and beauty of the world; I suppose i've just never been brave enough to leave everything behind in order to do it.
  4. Manestream originated as a suggestion for a business name by a friend. I ended up making a bovine persona out of her as the products I was selling were going to be for ungulates in general- and hey, cows are cute. Here she is: I went through a few RL changes in profession, and a bit of a personal change as well. None of my previous usernames seemed to fit me anymore; perhaps, I'd grown up too much since my teaching years, and decided a new name was appropriate- so I kept Manestream. I thought about making up some ridiculous story about a Tibetan monk, and my long hair, but I got too tired xD
  5. I just ate cheetos. It was only a handful but somehow I felt like I ate a pound's worth! gah! why you make me feel fat cheetos?! .////.

  6. We're looking into causes of the recent 503's, but rest assured that we're always keeping a watchful eye on the board and its behavior
  7. Every avalanche starts with a pebble. Be the pebble. Change everything.
  8. I had a feeling something like this was going to happen! Hehe, its good to meet you again though! XD
  9. welcome to canterlot! Very glad to have you on-board
  10. Its good to have you on board- and welcome :') The trip home was long- and laced with wishes to stay longer- but all good things have to end, so that they can come again ^_^ I"m glad to see that you got home safely as well! What booth were you running? And which two images have you done? i'm super curious now! Edit: Oh- found the images- but i'm trying to remember what table you were at!
  11. First day back at work- so hard after such a nice trip!

  12. Just found a slip of paper from my highschool years- its addressed to me and reads: If I could reach up and hold a star for each time you made me smile, an entire evenings' sky would be in the palm of my hand". I hope I am still this person today, and continue to be for the rest of my life.

  13. Great quote: "The relatioship I have with people is largely determined by the relationship I have with myself" I find this to be very true

      That almost sounds like one of those quotes that's meant to sound deep but doesn't actually make sense. :P

      lol; most quotes make sense if you understand the context. This one is simply saying "The more at peace you are, the more at peace with others you will be"

      Is that mood or lifestyle?

  15. Sittin in the airport, waiting to catch our three flights home. Every new beginning is some other beginning's end- i'm excited to see what new thing this will bring.

  16. Anthrocon is over- and I'm on my way back to Cali with Mir. Miss Artax and Bezel terribly- We all got along like pie and ice-cream- gloriously! And wish I could have seen more of Dio too- it was very nice of him to drive all the way up to see us; thank you Dio! It was a real pleasure :'3 Tugs at my heartstrings to be leaving- i teared up a bit as we left the hotel, haha- but thats how I know it was really good. Looking forward to next time. Cant think about anything else right now. :3 It would be great to meet more of all of you in the future! We did pass out 200 business cards at the convention; i'm looking forward to welcoming all our new pony enthusiasts into our home!
  17. Canterlot is at Anthrocon this weekend! Can you find our official mini business card? There are four to collect! You might check the brony meetup on Saturday, at 10pm at the performance hall! Or maybe you'll spot some in the zoo! Wearing MLP items might land you a chance encounter too, and talk and get to know other people wearing MLP gear, they might just be one of our card carriers!
  18. Here safely at anthrocon! Met up with Artax, got our room, got food, and now i can finally sleep!

  20. First flight came in near 50 minutes late; nearly missed our second flight- traded planes with only a few minutes to do so, but we got on!

  23. This piece is so gorgeous, Brian has done me a great honor by spending so much time on a gift- his art is way above request caliber; for this type of quality work an artist should be payed- its their livelihood! Its a great honor to see how much time you spent on this Brian, it means a lot to me. I know how much effort and time you put into your work, and this is just simply *amazing*. Thank you
  24. Amazing! XD I just cant stop squeeing!
