Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
If you think the LOTR books are bad, try the Silmarillion; imagine all of problems with location and character name drops multiplied by 100. Because it takes place over several generations, there are constantly new characters named, new locations named, and old locations being renamed and changed.
This. This describes me so much. I mean, I really want to be able to make super-adorable pony art, but every time I try, I just get discouraged by how horrible it looks, and that prevents me from trying again, which means that I won't get any better, which will just get me discouraged by how horrible any arts I try will look, and thus the cycle remains unbroken.
It doesn't help that being part of this fandom makes me feel obligated to produce some sort of arts, but lacking any skill in either writing or drawing all combines to make me make the sad face.
<-- my sad face would probably look like that, if I were Fluttershy.
On a more Ponysane note, did somepony need pony image macros? (I used the word "pony" three times in that sentence, but only once as its own word.)"Why is it that we receive a penny for our thoughts, but have to put in our 2 cents?"

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Haha, I hear you. Drawing momentum is darn well impossible to maintain at times.
How's flash treating you? I've been scraping by with the free copy of Elements that came with my tablet. Ironically, I'm saving up to buy myself Flash as a reward for something else, but that's a whole different vicious cycle (that's almost over??). I really want to learn to animate well, so that's a tasty carrot to get me going. I have, well actually nothing pony planed out, but I do have a Homestuck thing I want to try once I get my bearings.
That being said, ponies are a very good inspiration for quick doodles on my notepads. Derpy is my muse <3

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Also, someone mentioned cultists? :P
Also, while on the warhammer thread I realised someone needed to ponyfiy this image, with nightmare moon and celestia replacing there respective positions. Realy, replace the red on the armor with a dark green and it would already fit, and lets face it, it would look epic.

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Good point XD
I rarely remember my dreams, and when I do they tend to be pretty surreal.
I did dream of ponies once. It was after a late night viewing of MLP. I explained the dream here and I can't be bothered to copy/paste ^^:
TL;DR: Princess Celestia accidently turns me into a pink pegasus filly. ._.
Random thought: Friendship is Magic. Nopony likes Blueblood (or at least we don't see anypony liking him in the show). Blueblood doesn't do any magic in the show (that I remember). Could it be that not having any friends at all means that a unicorn is incapable of doing magic? At least Twilight had Spike and Celestia.

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Have fun in Honduras!
I've had one or two pony dreams over the course of the last few months. Rarely ever rememeber them though. I just remember a flash of something extremely vague, and wake up with a warm, happy feeling.
And yes. Yes it does.Avatar by DirtyTabs in the Adopt-A-Pony thread.

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Y'know, it's funny, despite my ponysanity and my general...uh, pony-centric creativity at the moment, I haven't had a dream of ponies.
Or, at least, a dream that I can remember. I don't tend to actually *remember* my dreams. Maybe that's why so many of my fics have dreams to start them, I'm jealous!
EDIT: Oh, geez, silly me. Good luck, bobcat! I know you'll have a great time.Last edited by EsperDerek; 2011-08-18 at 05:24 PM.

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
I remember days of HTML 1.0, with no macros at all :P
My first ever solid memory of computers was being shown the computer lab at my elementary school in the first grade. They told us about this awesome game where you type in numbers and directions, and you can make this little turtle move around and make pretty pictures!
And now I realized cassettes went extinct a few years ago
Ah, thank you for you work. One slight nitpick, though, the lyrics seem to be for reprise, which is in OP, this one is actually an original version which mentions a few ponies lacking in your links. Here's the text.
Also, found this link, but it doesn't help me with confirming how Star Catcher officially looks like. There are 2-3 different toy versions, which in turn don't look like the prominent white pegasus from the music video
...funny story, I found parts of Silmarillion quite less boring than LotR ^^"
This. This describes me so much. I mean, I really want to be able to make super-adorable pony art, but every time I try, I just get discouraged by how horrible it looks, and that prevents me from trying again, which means that I won't get any better, which will just get me discouraged by how horrible any arts I try will look, and thus the cycle remains unbroken.
It doesn't help that being part of this fandom makes me feel obligated to produce some sort of arts, but lacking any skill in either writing or drawing all combines to make me make the sad face.
Bitmap art is like drawing with pencil, easy to learn, vectors are more like cutting paper, you have to think of it in terms of shapes, not lines. I don't know how to explain it more precisely, but if you have any questions about vector art I'll be happy to help
I'd advise against buying Flash. First, you can get if for free to practice, second, I'd practice vectors first. If you want to buy it, after trying free versions, some earlier version might be quite cheap and still good for you.Come one, come all! GitP MLP Steam Group is open!

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Whew... just finished downloading all 26 episodes, just in case this whole youtube business turns out to be more than just a troll. Now I don't need to worry that much. Still would be sad if I couldn't link to the episodes, but at least I can still watch them.
I liked Silmarillion. I believe it was in fact the first Tolkien book I ever read (not counting what I read and apparently forgot as a kid).
Good luck, and have a nice trip.
My first computer used 5 1/4 inch floppy disks. If I remember correctly it had two, and no harddrive. Or maybe it only had one, and no harddrive. Either way, those were funny. I used to go to the library to get books with floppy disks containing all sorts of strange programs. Ah, those were the days...Last edited by Deadly; 2011-08-18 at 06:46 PM.

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Yeah, I looked at that one first. As far as I know Dasher, Dancer, Donner, and Prancer are not ponies. (Again, unless you count G2's Dancer.) I don't see any other pony names in that version. The only pony names I saw were in the reprise, which is why I linked it. I haven't seen A Very Minty Christmas (and probably never will) so I can't help you much with Star Catcher. I try to stay as far away from G3 as I can, because I really don't like the design or really anything else about it. I do have to say that Tabitha St. Germain has a great singing voice. :3
EDIT: I think this is Star Catcher (with Minty). She has the same coloration and hip mark. I don't know what movie this is from because, again, I'm not well versed in G3 anything. (But I can be pretty resourceful with the Internet..)

@Bobcat: Buena suerte amigo! Hasta luego!
I had a good day at work today because no one threw up on me or pooped on me. I got to play ponies with the kids today (two G1s, many G3s, and a good pile of fakies). [Again, I work at a daycare. XD]Last edited by WJMill; 2011-08-18 at 07:08 PM.

Are there any levels of canonicity? Toy lines being more important? Toys being less important than other media or more?
Also, yes, she does

Re: My Little Pony XX: Appletastic Treats
Oh-ho. There is actually a pony named Silver Song. I missed it because they didn't capitalize it in the lyrics. I don't know if she's in the cartoons though, but it does match the line structure in the reprise a la 'Our Twinkle Twirl is twirling,' etc.

Though, in G1, there were a few ponies in the beginning with blazes and freckles:
