  1. Time to honor the "I have done nothing productive all day thing"!

  2. I think Discord is a pretty cool character! A god of chaos inspire by the Q!
  3. How could anyone, even young children prefer fake touch buttons over real buttons? That's horrible! I guess they are just so used to it that it seems normal to them, poor widdle saps . I used to have a gameboy advance, I even for a time had one of those stupid lighted magnifier things! I'm glad Nintendo still makes pixely portable game consoles, I thinks it's a smart move, especially with how much retro 8bit style games are becoming popular. And they even don't go totally insane with anti-tampering like M$ does (well last time I checked, years ago). I think though that with a few good emulators, and a controller thingy, an android phone totally beats a gameboy and a slew of other emulatable old consoles. Hmm, it's actually rather interesting that technology has advanced to the point where one hobbyist could cheaply design and build something equivalent (or far superior) to an old gameboy with some 3d printing and microcontrollers.
  4. @@Discordian Whats the point of topics if you can't deviate from them! Yeah, it's weird how many people don't ever question the things they have been indoctrinated with, they just accept things the way they are just because, really quite sad actually. Associations are important because that's just the way our minds seem to work, but they are not definite, and they do certainly get old. But (you know starting a sentence with "but" is actually an okay thing to do) I guess that's something I like about FiM, a subtle way to challenge the norms a bit without provoking my anxiety too much Now if only I could get myself to wear MLP shirts more often...
  5. You like Rarity? I never would have guessed! hehe
  6. Questions like this usually fry my brain, but I think it's Luna atm.
  7. That is so true! The history behind the My Little Pony franchise gives it a stigma of being for little girls. Imagine if it was some sort anime show, I think it would get less grief that way. I think that the way our society thinks is very messed up in general, take the basic "pink is for girls" association. It's really quite ridiculous that a mixture of red and white should be avoided by males. In fact I've heard that it used to be blue for girls, and pink for boys in some cultures. I'm glad that FiM is helping to challenge some rather stupid beliefs held by society.
  8. I just remember how they totally botched SB years ago...
  9. That fight with Tirek was pretty unexpected! I guess they have more licence to make the show more dramatic/exciting at times with the huge adult fanbase.
  10. Gee, well I love the style, and the art it has inspired. I think the writing is clever, it has little clever subtleties to it that are nice to watch. I also really love the comics too, those are great! I for the most part think the brony community is great too! I also like the excuse to like something "girly" like MLP too! As far as what I like in the show, I pretty much like all the main characters, they pretty much have times when they do something at least a little annoying (what show doesn't?), but they are all usually great! Oh, yes, and fanart fanart fanart <3
  11. What is the general opinion on using another's art as a reference, at least for something like MLP? You can't exactly use a real photo as a reference because there aren't any photographs of (MLP) ponies, at least that I know of I guess screenshots from the show are the most kosher references, but those are really just drawings too. I ask because I use a lot of reference pictures, and a recent drawing of mine (http://fav.me/d88isdg) looks quite a bit like the reference, especially because the pose is somewhat unique, rather than a generic blank stand pose.
  12. OMG, I have had so much college drama it's not funny, I can totally empathize with you. I've gone through about 3 different different schools, having to leave for various reasons why they don't work for me, e,g. too expensive, too dumbed down etc. I've gotten pretty upset about college in general, choices out there, and the quality/price ratio as well. Many times I have thought about skipping school and going the self teaching route, but I think I finally found a school that will work for me. I hope you find a good situation that ends up being having a positive impact on your life!
  13. It looks really great! Kinda like an ink sketch or something.
  14. Krita is really great! On windows though it's a bit slow under certain conditions, though it's been very actively developed lately and should hopefully see some speed boot under Windows. If you use Linux by any chance it's supposed to be much faster under that OS, I would try it but can't get my cheapo pen tablet working win Linux. There is Paint tool SAI, which is really quite nice under windows, though if I could I would probably use Krita. I actually got a free download of SAI from someone on DA, but if you really want to walk the plank matey, erm, I mean get it for free you should be able to find it(or PS) if you use good judgement for what you download. As for photoshop, it's great for a lot of things, and a lot of very amazing artists use it for amazing things. However I personally think it's not the best tool for digital painting because it has no brush stabilization, something which both SAI and Krita have, along with great brush engines. It's also very expensive too, so unless you plan on doing lot's of photomanipulation and such.... Actually no, just start with GIMP, and Krita, both are free and open source, and quite good. For digital painting you can apply most photoshop tutorials to [insert painting program here] pretty easily. I think of you want to learn more about digital painting crtl+paint is a great website to check out! Also if you don't have a pen tablet, you should get one, and not a cheap crappy one like I did, real Wacoms start at like $50, so it's not a very big investment, just use all the money you saved not buying photoshop! edit: looks like I'm a bit late here
  15. I really like this song! It's something I just put on a loop and listen to over and over again for a long time.

    general questions How is "time online" metered?

    It seems like the timer stops counting after being idle for a certain amount of time? Is this true (I hope so)?
