Fleur-De-Lis

It is not just a show ... IT IS A WAY OF LIFE!

Hahaha, some nonsense aside, That is not far from the truth! after all, we have conventions, countless fan creations from art/music/fanfic/comics.

Welcome to the fandom~ Enjoy your stay!

Welcome to Poniverse! Enjoy your stay.(I proceed to wonder what season you are on)

Also .. Shimmers is not true bookhorse! ... I'll give you a hint ... its purple smart!

I would just like to direct everyone ... to this!

Now dont make me choose They are all just so delicious~♪

Ooooo~ Sounds like we can look forward to some fanart from you! Welcome to the poniverse!

Not enough traditional art these days, but of course all the digital art people make is amazing too!

Welcome to the forums! Always nice to see friendly new faces!

Fanfic writer eh? Do feel free to publicize them on your blog or status updates! I am sure there are plenty of fanfic hungry ponies always looking for the next one to satisfy their literary thirst

They dont say how they found the forums or became a fan ... It is an enigma! The mystery is real!

Shenanigans aside, welcome to the Poniverse! I hope you brought pony because there is all pony all the time in Poniverse

Inspired by Celestia radio. All pony, all the time~

If you go to a ponycon they sell this stuff by the bucket loads.

Wish I could, however both transportation and cost (to simply attend) is an issue. Heres hoping there will still be overflowing amounts of awesome pony merch in a few years from now! Fandom of the century is what I am hoping and aiming for hahaha

I remember when I first discovered that tumbler ... It only had 3 posts when it was first shared with me! I grew to love it ever since

I was recently thinking about how it would be great to get some pony merchandise. But proceeded to think ... I do not really want anything big, and I certainly dont want to start collecting plushies (where would i put them all! . Posters can get rather expensive, then there is the issue of where to hang them.

So the thought occurred to me ... pins and buttons! Then I proceeded to wonder ... are there any particularly good artists or button series anyone can recommend? The smaller ones that is, I am unsure of what I would do with the larger sizes ...

P.S. I once saw some amazing necklaces and such of "Factions" such as the the combined solar and lunar empires, changeling, twilight, etc. I forgot the details ... but i recall it being a kickstarter a while back. Although I do not wear jewelry, I thought those would be nice to just own

.. also We finally got a celly emote! Oooo~ 

*edit* Did they ever fix the Celestia funko? (aka the famous princess tipsy).I was just thinking I might buy all my favorite characters ... which hopefully wont end up an archive

Too late! it happened XD

The list being

Read a novel or manga for an extended period of time. Nothing makes me feel sleepy quite like that! I recommend a good web novel.

Supporting the homeless is so complicated these days. Honestly here in America its not quite as simple as we wish it could be. It seems like there should be a seminar or some sort of basic education on how to help the homeless.

As some people have mentioned there are some people who simply pretend to be homeless to make a quick buck. There are some homeless who live in homeless shelters with all the basic necessities and a few luxuries (like cable), they even offer programs to help get people back on their feet. Yet some of those in the shelters are very selfish and just take advantage of the system (I have heard a few real bad stories, such as getting angry and destroying some of the shelter property over the simple fact of a drier not working). Offenders are naturally booted from the homeless shelter.

Though sadly in itself, homeless shelters can be difficult to get into because of various requirements. If I were to support the homeless I would support the shelters and let them filter which ones actually need and deserve the help.Though unfortunately enough there are also many who need and deserve the help of a homeless shelter who cant get into one. Truly such depressing times.

Still ... did you know that in this day and time, people mostly just pass by the homeless? If you were to support them, like most say, just offer them food, or a "Survival pack" to help get them through their hard times (basically an emergency kit; probably coupled with some first aid, food, rations, maybe some water, etc. ). What makes this especially sad is that, homeless CHILDREN are even ignored. I have seen various youtube experiments (which i take with a grain of salt; considering its questionable validity.) where people's parents are disguised as homeless, and the passerby's do not even recognize them, or more specifically, did not bother to pay attention to them. These are adults by the way. There was that one youtube video experiment when a child was pretending to be homeless ... even over 2+ hours no one offered their support or even acknowledged his existence!.

I do not even like thinking about this anymore, its too depressing.

Moral of the story: Support the homeless! But learn on how to properly and effectively help them!

I loves me some Sonata Dusk, but when I saw that fourth choice, I only thought "Dont make me choose!"

Bad jokes huh? Sounds like we are going to get along just fine

I make puns! good and bad! Shush dont listen to the neighsayers

What games would you instantly preorder if you saw a reboot coming out?

 

I would personally love to see a reboot of Crash Bandicoot so long as it followed the style of the original games. I would also love a reboot of Spyro. Yes I am aware Skylanders is technically a Spyro game but I consider it a spinoff.

My exact thoughts. I actually brought that up in a similar thread "things no longer made that you wish would be brought back."

Crash Bandicoot is super awesome! hmm ... I wonder if theres a possibility of an HD remeastered version or something.

Pretty much anything German. There were quite a few from WW2 that were leagues ahead of the competition, they still make heads turn even today! (ex. the panzer)

I'v got to retake a course in Calculus, but the reason I struggle with it is because I don't have a very good foundation in college algebra. So can anyone point me in the right direction on the major parts of college algebra (or algebra in general) that play a part in Calculus?

I figure I should try to brush up on things and do better this time around. Math being cumulative and all that.

Hi pony! Welcome to pony! I hope you brought pony!

You know I thought about it, and I changed my mind! What should really be remade (or keep going) should be the Crash Bandicoot series. It was among the first games I ever got for my old playstation way back when.It looks like activity stopped as a whole in 2008, but those were just rereleased on PSN and handhelds I think.

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to request a signature that does Fleur some justice! .... No i am not talking about myself like a conceited person    I am talking about the character! She really doesn't have enough presence in the brony community, and I feel not nearly as much fan art as she deserves! If you have any questions for me or feel I am asking too much just let me know, I would love to do some feedback for you.

Note: I am leaving notes of feedback throughout the guidelines but I can trim it down to the minimums should you so choose. I also rather threw in various things that could be used as guidelines or suggestions instead of the initial stuff as well. Since I want to give you the freedom to draw what you want, but still kind of voice my opinion as well.

My Opinion on Fleur-De-Lis

I believe Fleur-De-Lis is a beautiful~♪ pony, so showcasing her supermodel figure and her overall beauty seems like something that would really do justice for the character. Though honestly, in my taste I also love silly ponies and tiny ponies . So i rather threw that into the mix, should you ever feel like using that. (adorable is good too!) I know its all over the place, but think of it this way! You get the flexibility to do whatever you feel like and i'll love it anyways!

Le Template

Size:600x100 is preferable

Extra notes:(I wont stifle your creativity, but keep in mind I cant showcase your marvelous work it if it goes past the limits!

Colors: Things that compliment Fleur-De-Lis's palette.

Extra Notes:I am not much of an artist so I couldn't really tell you what would, so I will leave that decision to you (and it gives you more room for your own taste)

Background: I ornate would be preferable, but really anything that really shows some sort of fancy class (Fleur-De-Lis being a model/high class pony).

Extra Notes: I am thinking some effects thrown in for good measure (Honestly I dont know what that entails but it sounds good!)

Text: Just put Fleur's name on there ...

Extra Notes: I am not quite sure what caps works best with it but basically it would go either "Fleur-De-Lis" or "Fleur-de-lis" hmmm, in what style I am not sure. Something fancy that matches the background sounds nice, but standing out from the ornate background could also work, but maybe something simple and bold would be better because of the contrast? That one I'll leave to your taste as well.

Details: Should really showcase Fleur-De-Lis, either in the spotlight of attention or a character on the side being herself (like your Megurine Luka signature).

Extra Notes: Naturally whatever you decide is fine with me, whatever it may be!

Images: There are four images I think would go well for this signature, all of which are high resolution (shouldnt have to worry about quality loss) so I will leave them as links in the spoiler below. The diversity is both to my taste, and so you can have the flexibility to choose whichever you may want to work with. I listed my preferences below, but honestly the first two are tied. I love both silly lovable Fleur, and beautiful fleur~♥

Note: All games mentioned below are on steam, with the exception of Saints Row 1

X Universe ... well its hard to tell you specifically because of the titles. But basically, X3: Terran Conflict and X3: Albion prelude (I recommend the superbox though). Its a game with hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of hours of playability, with a super in-depth economy, and living universe. various ship classes, a multitude of quest types, etc. It is a flight sim type of game (though its really much more than that, but your perspective is mostly from a pilot seat). Building stations, trade fleets, flight wings, and when it comes down to it, an empire. Keep in mind the learning curve is very steep for newcomers, but oh so worth it when you get past that hurdle.

Starbound is a GREAT choice in terms of a sandbox similar to Terraria (they are NOT the same; they shine in their own respective ways).

Hyperdimension Neputnia: Rebirth1 That game has made me smile more than any other. When I first started playing it, it had me smiling for over 3 hours straight! from jokes, shenanagins, the right amount of fanservice, fourth wall breaking, and nonsense! its perfect. The combat is pretty good too!

Naturally, Skyrim is a good choice too, a great game, and plenty of mods to expand/add in stuff. I think the stuff people charge for the workshop mods is NONSENSE. I admit people need to make some sort of living, especially with the work that SOME of them put into their mods. But the sheer amount some charge ($1 for a single stupid sword which is just a copy of the League of Legends item?; no thanks, some of which I think are ripped from the actual game)

Definitely the Saints Row series, its a third person shooter, and you should get about 50~80 hours of entertainment from them. Definitely get the Game of the Year or "Game of the century" editions. I personally love the over the top humor/shenanagins.and lovable characters. Saints Row 2 is a bit too serious for my taste, but the story is still good. But as of Saints Row 3 and onwards is when things really step up for me.

Spiral Knights is worth trying, but not worth sticking around. The game has been at a stalemate, if not dying state for about a year now. They stopped adding any real content and at this point, its really just all cosmetic nonsense which are simply reskins of previous costumes. Its like playing some of the classic Legend of Zelda games, its really an experience.

Air Mech is the last game I can recommend for you, its like a unique take/hybrid on League of Legends/Dota2 and Starcraft. Its a great game that I can highly recommend if you like an RTS game. It has survival modes, Players vs. Computer. and PvP (though its mostly PvP). Only playing it can really give it justice.

Final Fantasy VII remake (that is 7).. That thing that they have been promising for forever and a half. But will we ever see it? ... maybe ... but probably not.

Google search had me run into the poniverse network, and that lead me to the mlpforums!

So I recently formatted my computer since windows itself started giving me issues, for details on that check my blog (link in signature, its the latest blog post). Did the stuff I believed to be routine enough, you know, boot from CD, install windows on C drive, overritten the old stuff (which it said it would delete).

Funnily enough by the end of the installation it said that it put al the old files (for access, but not available to use the OS from) in windows.old (and from browsing, it seemed pretty much ALL my data was still there).

So by the time it was all said and done, and 24+ hours (im still working on it) of putting every single windows update, graphics drivers/chipsets and such. and deleting the windows.old folder (which in itself was 518Gb). I find i am still short another 500~700 Gb of space that should be available on my HDD.

I have a 2TB HDD. (1.81 actual space available) yet only 957 Gb of it is free (and supposedly I am using 905Gb). Ballparking all my personal files from the music, extensive wallpaper gallery, and game data (thus far). About 100~200Gb should be used tops (which I have counted myself, up to 200 is a generous margin of error). So the question is .... where is the other 500GB or so of free space I should have?.

Could it be hidden somewhere on the HDD waiting to erase itself as an emergency backup of sorts after formatting? Or is it hiding somewhere I should delete files from that I am unaware of?

*edit* I just ran the error checking tool (its chkdsk i believe) it finished within seconds, this further proves I am not using up nearly as much as my HDD as it says I am ...

*edit 2* Just ran a scan for my entire C:\ drive. The total space scanned was 106.7Gb ... That means I should have 1.7Tb (roughly) of space free. Yet instead I only have 956 Gb ... This means there is still 748Gb (roughly) of data that is used but unaccounted for ... My confusion is only heightened.

*edit 3* I used the "Disk Cleanup" that comes with windows, clicked "Clean up system files" which requires administrative privlidges, then explored its new options a bit, and found an interesting button that said "more options" so i went to that tab, and found a section that said to remove all but the most recent system restore point.

The  description read as such "In some editions of Windows. The disk might include file shadow copies and older windows complete PC backup images as part of restore points. This information will also be deleted." Under that impression I immedately knew my problem had to be the shadow copies!

Sure enough after I clicked the "Clean up ..." button in that section, the program became unresponsive for about 5 minutes. I check my available hard drive space, and BAM i now have 1.72Tb of free space. All is well and I am ever so happy once more. I list and detail this experience now, for those who may come across it, and solve this confusing problem; which can apparently eat up a good portion of your available space!

Kinda funny how I managed to solve it with a few hours of tinkering ... and *sad face* before anyone bothered to reply (but I understand its in the middle of the off hours, of the no one is awake at this time of the night/morning)

Im thinking about what i thought I thunk about thinking. Then I proceeded to think about posting about what i was thinking about thinking. Thunk a bit more, and here it was!

Your one smart skittle! that's the one alright Double Action: Boogaloo

Turns out add to wishlist is an option despite it being free to play, hahaha. Thanks for the assist, I dont think I would have found it without help ... or a whole lot of luck ... or Twilight's help
