It's only open during Open Server Weekends, which is announced on the LoE website. My OC's cutie mark is currently a chess piece, but I want it to be an SNES game controller, since SNES was my very first video game system that I owned and played when I was young (and it's still my favorite).

Ah.

That's pretty cool.

Also.

Here's another OC, I drew this one awhile ago.

Ooh, I like it.

Yes, very gud.

INB4: Someone says it's a rip-off of Button's Mom.

Also, drawing of my friend's OC

Drawing like the show is my worst talent.

@Filler

That's honestly not a bad attempt. Not perfect show accuracy, sure, but you got pretty close.

Those OC's also appear to be in accordance with the silent OC rules and look like reasonable characters. Well done

To make the above OC look even more show-accurate here's a few tips:

  • Avoid black outlines. MLP:FiM almost never uses them
  • Make the mouth the same color as the outline
  • Work the scarf(?) a bit more so that it looks like fabric draped around the neck rather than a rubber collar
  • Eyes a bit smaller
  • Remember to keep nice circular curves

I would of done better if I vectored it.

Thanks, too. I went from drawing terri-bad OCs, to drawing OK ones.

It's something.

@BSOD

I chose black outlines because I sometimes draw in different styles.

The mouth is coloured because my friend's OC uses lipstick.

The scarf mistake was because I was lazy.

Too used to drawing bug-eyed foals.

Curves are hard to draw with a laptop mousepad.

Here's a pic of the actual OC my friend designed.

Looks like I'll have to add the following fanfics to my "MLP Fanfics Read" list:

-Rainbow Awks, Balks, Bawks, Blocks, Blocs, Box, Caulks, Chalks, Clocks, Cocks, Cox, Docks, Dox, Faux, Fawkes, Flocks, Fox, Frocks, Hawks, Jaques, Jocks, Knocks, Knox, Locks, Lox, Mocks,
Ox, Pox, Shocks, Socks, Sox, Squawks, Stalks, Stocks, Talks, Vox, Wal
-One Thousand Years Ago
-Fluffle Puff Finds the Marker
-Twilight Discovers Cookie Clicker

I forgot to add “My Little Dashie” to my list.

I never found MLD to be all that sad--especially when I remembered that, without Dash and the Elements, Equestria would get wrecked by Discord, Tirek, etc. It was actually a relieve when they picked her up.

The Unexpected Love Life of Dusk Shine

Just remember the author cancelled it.

MLD was good, but not great to me. I've decided to resort myself to reading the type of fanfic I want to read, which is silly, random, and funny ones.

As for TULLoDS, I was never interested in reading the other chapters. I think the first chapter's good enough for me.

I just read <a href = "http://www.fimfiction.net/story/198373/princess-luigis-kingdom">Princess Luigi's Kingdom, which is an alternate ending to Twilight's Kingdom. It was weird, funny, and amazing. I think I'm gonna find more crack fics to read now.

Eh, just wait for a good quality bootleg to end up on Youtube and we can have a KYM Pony Stream. Or….you can wait a month for it to premiere on…..Ugh, The Discovery Family Channel. This is going to end up like the Sears Tower name isn't it? Gets called something stupid but we continue to call it what it used to be because the new name is stupid. IT WILL ALWAYS BE THE HUB GODDAMMIT!

One last thing, the art from the credits.

They are fucking amazing, I tell'ya.

OMG!!! I've got to catch up with all these old spoilers now. That was amazing. I mean the story was painfully predictable, and a good 1/3 of it was spoiled by the official trailers/per-release clips, but the music/visual effects/everything else was awesome. I should probably shut up before I spoil anything. That art at the end credits was fucking amazing though. I honestly wanna make that SSS pic my profile pic. (So original though, right?) Hard to find a HQ pic of it though. Maybe the blu-ray will have the sketches. That or maybe they'll produce an EQG manga. I could go for that.



Best line:

@BSoD:

And try not to frighten any little girls.

Mission accomplished…..I think. There were only like 5 or 6 little girls I think. Maybe less. There turned out to be a fair number of adults. I got distracted during the final show down because one of them got pulled out by their ride or something. 30 seconds is a lot to miss at the rate these shows go. If it had been in the beginning, I wouldn't have missed anything.

Also, this little girl (like maybe in the range of 9-12) said "Oh! That's Derpy!" in the movie and I couldn't help but wonder where she had been to learn that name. Hopefully YouTube, parents, or maybe she just had the uncorrected version of season 2. I hope she's been steered clear of any r34 if she learned it online though. lol.

Edit: Forgot this was posted today.

I wish they could make her canon. :3

It's actually the reason why I watched it on Youtube instead of going on an adventure to the movie theater. There was a shitload of fanservice in this movie and I mean A SHITLOAD of fanservice, I'd miss just about everything in that movie due to all the neckbeards passionate fans cheering through 60 minutes out of the 70 minute movie.

Cool! Nice to meet you. I'm Blue Yoshi. I'm not an artist or a writer, but I do upload contents on this site. I have an account on this site, Deviantart, Derpibooru, and Tumblr.

JK, I sadly have all of those too, even if I never use them. Welcome anyways! Glad you decided to join us!

@Fanfics: All this talk of fanfics reminds me that I have a printed edition of Past Sins I need to get signed by Dreatos if I do decide to go to that STL Crystal Fair con thing.

Oh! Also, this:

@Cute Master: Cringings intensify.

On the topic of Fics, I don't really read as much as I should. However, I did play a hand in post editing the first part of A Touch of Chaos . I do have four fics of my own that I have written, only one of them is currently incomplete, however. It's been a little slow. I've also read Hospice, which I did not like, by the way. The other one was My Little Dashie. It was okay. I've been meaning to read It's a Dangerous Business Going Out Your Door, but I keep forgetting about it, plus at the time it blew up, I was busy with school work amongst other things.

And thanks for the warm welcome, everyone.

I have read a couple more fanfics. One of them is <a href = "http://www.fimfiction.net/story/46065/scootaloo-is-slightly-flame-retardant"> "Scootaloo is Slightly Flame Retardant". The other one is <a href = "http://www.fimfiction.net/story/176025/the-collected-poems-of-maud-pie"> "The Collected Poems of Maud Pie". The latter has become one of my favorite fanfics I've read so far, because the poems in the fanfic will make you think about their hidden meanings, especially "Farming Rocks" (that one will give you feels when you find out what the poem is actually referring to).

Welcome to the thread! Hope you enjoy your stay.

I myself am also a writer (who hasn't really done much yet), also on Deviantart, I also have accounts in various other places too.

Oh man, this fanfic's so cute: <a href = "http://www.fimfiction.net/story/45217/the-battle-of-fort-book">The Battle of Fort Book

I was smiling and laughing throughout while reading the story. It's short, simple, super sweet, super cute, super adorable, and really amazingly awesome. Because of this, it has become my most favorite MLP fanfic I have ever read so far.

Basically, it's about filly Twilight, teenager Cadance, and Captain Smartypants trying to defend Fort Book (made of a bunch of pillows, books, and a big blanket from an evil conqueror named Captain Shining Armor. Everything is told from Twilight's point of view.

Read another funny fanfic. It's called <a href = "http://www.fimfiction.net/story/212626/princess-celestia-is-in-your-bed"> "Princess Celestia is in Your Bed".

It was random and hilarious, but the end pretty much took the cake. XD

You've been lurking since Horse Thread 4? Oh wow, you probably remember some of the original horse thread posters

Why come you didn't join in earlier? You've missed out on a lot of discussion

I do, I know Verbose and a few others left relatively recently due some issues. I've read and forgotten quite a bit. I may have started since the 3rd thread, but my memory is kind of poor in that regard.

I'm not sure why I didn't join earlier, I should have, honestly. Especially during the prime times of Season 2. I guess it's just my habit of being quiet in group conversations. Being an introvert has its downsides.

Neat video – but no pony was dressed as a spoopy skeleton. 8/10.

But is it impossible to be a horse's ass in a pony society??? I guess that would imply some level of slavery.

Anyone seen that FiMFiction got a new layout? It was kinda jarring at first, but it's not bad. What do y'all think?

Unrelated combination of wubs and baroque:

Hmm, looks interesting. One thing I like is how they changed the "Groups" section on the right side of each story to "Featured in", so that you get a clear idea of the list of groups the fanfic is located in.

It involved a UI change, so naturally there's a 12 page shitstorm going on. They've finally brought back the tracking feature, and have reenabled group notifications, so I'm happy.

@Cute Master from… Damn, 4 days ago? The hell have I been?
If you are looking for HQ versions of those (awesome) pictures from the credits, an artist named Varemia seems to be re-vectoring them from the screenshots and even coloring them.
Four of the main six, Vinyl, Derps, and yep, Sunset are all here as of me posting this.
More to come, I assume.

Yeah, I don't know either.
But it is cute!

Cute, or terrifying.
Possibly both.

Welcome!
I too lurked for quite a while before eventually joining in, though you have me beat on the time scale.
Gather round the water cooler so that we may discuss things of a pony-ish nature!

In honor of weird friends everywhere!

So… I just watched Rainbow Rocks. It is the best thing I have ever seen in a long time. Seriously guys. Watch it. Story isn't incredible, but it's much better than Equestria Girls. Animation and Music are always great, and the characters are lovable and nicely written as always. I finished the movie feeling absurdly happy and awesome.

Remember the finale for season 4? It went something like


Well the final battle in Rainbow Rocks went all


amirite!?
