what? Okay then, time to go digging…

Coda, Sonata, and that's all I got

New page get.

Allegra isn't taken. Yay!

@opspe: Sonata it is.

Tried a lot of stuff for vectors: Adobe Photoshop CS5, Illustrator CS5, CorelDRAW, Inkscape, Google Docs. They were painfull to figure out and work with in nearly all tools. However I stopped on Illustrator CS5. I've figured it out so stuff is now moving along.

Since I got a Credit Card and stuff, I tend to buy software now, but daaamn:

@Ivan: CS5 = only way. too damn expensive…therefore did not…buy….

@Ideo:

@IvanP91

But shipping is free!

I can't wait to see Scootaloo as the mare do well on Saturday. It's going to happen. Yeah…

@Verbose: Lol, didn't notice that at first look. Shipping is free :)

But yet I made this one with GIMP and it was free.

Is it still the best $599.00 you ever spent?

um… sure I "spent" the $599 to "buy" Illustrator. Yeah, Ill buy it at some point. My credit cards are maxed out, I can cover the debt fast but im gonna have to do night-shift emergency repairs for that (pay is much higher)

But that, drawing is good. Damn good. I played around with GIMP, didn't understand it. I still have it installed but I don't really bother with it to be honest. I've forced myself to learn Photoshop and just hours ago Illustrator. The learning curve for these tools is big. I remember the first time I opend up Photoshop, im like wtf, how do I do anything? :)

Do you know what this thread is missing?
Let me give you a hint.

MS PAINT FOREVER.

… Self esteem? I'm kidding. Don't kill me, please.

I mean I do understand that it is a better program but it all depends on what you are doing with it. I'm just fucking around making a few things here and there but nothing professional. I may get to that point but for now GIMP works great.

um… joking aside I do still use it, its a lot faster and easier for some basic opertations. So I do use it. Since I started working with photoshop though, I've managed to forget some functions of MS Paint and since Windows 7 Paint I don't even know how to do certain stuff in there anymore.

Ponies are amazing, got me to finally start drawing. I've always wanted to draw, but Ponies actually got me to get off my ass (and then sit right back down in front of a monitor) and do something. Pencil & Scanner, Digital tablet outlines, digital tablet coloring, and now vector art. All of those skills because of this show. God I love it.

Way ahead of you.

The one thing I did spend on was an ok tablet. I didn't go top of the line nor did I get bottom of the line.

Aha! There! I created A.L.M.A. the little Filly that is in the sleeping pod possible in a machine that is basically a copy design of GLaDOS. But it will be in the biggest part for max room for the see through pod.

AKA she is used as the AI system.

Got it:

I see we're talking about the programs we use to draw.
I've got a pretty good one that allows for amazing detail and personalization.
It's called Pencil and Paper. It's relatively cheap, maybe $15 total. All I need is a base picture and my imagination, no credit card or style for a tablet. Not to mention, it's able to be used for other things when I'm done drawing ponies.

Here's what the icon looks like:

What science has done.

Why would I kill you? There's only one being I would like to see dead, and it's not you.

Pokey Pierce?

Hooray, I'm spared! And so this isn't some random spam post and I don't get in trouble, have some d'aww

and

Paper and Pencil is not available in my Country or region.

"We are sorry, we've detected that you are currently in the middle of nowhere, these products are not available in your region."

…anyway, I wanted to learn different styles of drawing and improve my skills. Pencil and paper are awesome and I can draw some amazing stuff on it cause its a bit easier than all the digital programs,but with digital programs I can create sharp looking anti-aliased artwork with vectors and all. Pencil shading, texture, its way easier on paper. Simple grey/black is awesome. A bit of color pencil helps too: DeviantArt link

And Berry, I would like to point out that Godzilla is in fact real. He's obviously just hiding in fear.

@Berry Punch
Mmm'kay seems like Twilight answered it for me thank you now and I must continue searching a picture of mine in this thread some where.

My friend Scootaloo has a message for you…

I wish I had a tablet. That would be so much nicer than a trackpad/mouse combo. That being said, sometimes a mouse is useful in editing paths.

Oh joy, I get a visitor. Let me set up the guest room then.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaannyyyway…
Time for more of my delicious backstory? Don'tca think?

So…
Back when Pokey and I were together. One night I was feeling really sick. Couldn't eat at all, kept throwing up, horrible stomach aches. Went to the hospital with Pokey. The doctors said that I might have a serious intestinal problem. I was really scared, he was there for me then. Eventually after they ran all the blood test (blood alcohol level 25% BTW) they found out I was pregnant. He just sort of stood there dumbfounded for awhile after the doctor (well Nurse Red Heart, bless her soul) told us the results. He walk out of my room, out of the hospital without saying a word. Headed straight home, took all the stuff that was his that he could carry. Left to go live with the Diamond Dogs (I've already told you why, go look at my tumblr for Celestia's sake!).

Now comes the sad part…

The fact you where pregnant and your consumption of alcohol was dangerously high for you already, makes me surprised that your child did not have any birth defects physically and mentally….

I would say cool story bro but keep going

But I already has a sad. How can I hold more than one sad?
ლ(ಥ益ಥლ)

Well, pony livers (and kidneys) are very very efficient at filtering all sorts of chemicals. Pinchy was born as healthy as any other foal.

Buzzkill time: A BAC of 25% is fifty times the lethal level.

edit: inb4 Citation: use acetone next time

I have returned from the madness that is Black Friday! Battlefield 3 Limited Edition and FIFA 12 obtained for 80 bucks! Sadly, Skyward Sword wasn't on sale.
Also, f**king GameStop, have to put their damn price tags that require acid to remove cleanly. ALL OVER MY LIMITED EDITION. Oh well.

N00b didn't pre-order and buy at release. Shame…………..

Well guys, I'm doing it tomorrow. For sure. No lies. My dad said he would sleep in just a little bit (he's been getting up at 5 AM HI time) and I'm going to wake up at about 5:30 if I can sleep correctly. I'm going to leave plenty of room for error, the TV's been acting oddly, an hour should be long enough to fix any issues.
No way can my dad hate me after what I said today. And he had no excuses before. Also, my dad likes to understand everything about me. He'd probably watch some if I told him to. And we still have to be in the same house for 2 more days after tomorrow, so he'd kind of be forced to deal with it.
Now, if he were to watch some to try and understand why I would watch it, he might become a brony. He likes older cartoons like the original Spongebob, Pink Panther, Tom & Jerry, etc. so he might also like MLP:FiM.
Either way, he'll have to deal with it. If he ignorantly assumes I'm gay, I have a whole flipping speech thought up to contradict what he says.

tl;dr

I need to go to sleep Good night everypony!

Not everyone is swimming in cash, dammit. I don't even have a job. I mad to mooch of my father for this.

I'm just jerkin your chain. Calm down.
Wut system u gettin BF3 for?
If i know, i could set you up with a clan.

@Steve the Scout
We all will be standing beside you in thought and glad to see you are finally gonna do a big step that not a whole lot of bronies would do. I have respect for you brony for doing this. I hope you will defend the fandom to the highest point.
TL;DR:

My father the good sport he is he call the MLP like he calls all show I watched and when any of my siblings watched: "Let's watch something with more sustenance" then he jacks the remote…ಠ_ಠ

AHHHH!!!
Brb, why now of all times!?!

If i know, i could set you up with a clan.

HAHAHAHAHA no.

I'm playing on PS3, by the way.

Let me guess, FOX news, Cartoon Network's MAD, newer Spongebob, etc.

Also, predicted page get, because there a lot of posts in-between reloads.

No…
He's talking about the good ones: Old spongebob, Invader Zim, Adventure time, anything that I watch really….
