    Glad to see you have enthusiasm and faith in me. I hope I don't disappoint. ^^' I'm glad you like it! I'll look into making the change, but at a later time. For now I'm going to move forward to another request so long as you're satisfied with the avatar I made for you. I hope it's not TOO different.

    @Cstriker All right, I've got a signature made up. I'm not entirely sure if it's what you want, but here it is. If you want any changes don't be afraid to let me know! ^^

    It's all right. I've taken note of it. However, I'm going to go ahead and do yours and Bard's requests last out of what I have currently, as I'm quite rusty at making pony vectors and I just keep finding myself restarting the images. So, as to not become backed up on requests here, I'm going to handle the requests for canonical ponies first. That doesn't mean I won't do yours eventually, but it does mean that it'll take a while. I apologize for this, but I think it's for the best to move forward with requests that I can more easily complete. I'll do my best! All right. Since your request seems like it'll be the most time intensive and difficult, however, I'm going to put it at the bottom of my current queue. Don't worry, I won't bump it down after this, but for now I'd like to get some of the requests I have done and out there. Do know that this is the most anyone's ever asked of me, though, so I'm not entirely sure how good the result will be when I finally finish it. Right-o! Not a problem. All righty then. Is your OC the parasprite pictured in your avatar, only larger? If not, I'll need to see a picture of him to know how to really make him. And since this has an OC in it at all I'll put it after the canon ponies in my current queue. You can see the first post to see where you fall into the queue. As I've said above I'll be taking on yours and other canon ponies first in this batch of requests, so you should be getting yours soon.

    Sorry about getting back to you so late, but I'm going to need one more pretty important detail. What kind of hairstyle does Mirrorwing have? I can't make the hair if I don't know what 'shape' to make it. Thanks ahead of time. @Cstriker I appreciate that both of you have chosen to request your signatures and avatars from me, and I hope that you understand that it may be a while as I have to balance my time between work, sleep, personal hobbies, hanging out with my girlfriend, cleaning, cooking, etc. I'm currently working on Bard's request, but since it's an OC pony, it's going to take notably longer than it would if I were able to dip into pre-rendered vectors the way I can for canon ponies. Hope you can bear with me.

    No problem. I'm glad you like it. ^^ All righty then. Camouflage Rarity signature it is, then! Do you want her in her camo for your avatar, too? Or would you prefer something different for that, like it is now?

    Got it. Yours shouldn't be difficult, so I'll put you at the top of the list. I should have it done soon, as long as no surprises pop up and occupy my time. All right! It's a bit simple, but I do think the look turned out quite nice. Let me know what you think of it. ^^ Here's a preview of it in 'Steam Size'. Let me know if you'd like any changes made to it or anything.

    Do you want that exact image in your avatar? Or are you wanting me to remake that in traditional MLP art form? All righty, got it. I can't give you an exact time as to when it'll be done since my free time is limited here lately, but I can tell you that I'll get it to you as soon as I can.

    Mr. 300, eh? I just looked back at my first ever thread here yesterday and saw you calling me that. I had figured you would have forgotten it, honestly. And, no, you rule, Doctor. I need a bit more information on Mirrorwing before I can take you up on this. If you could, would you attach a picture to a post with Mirrorwing's colors just kind of painted on there? I don't need a diagram or anything, just put like "Mane Colors" and then put a spot for each color in the order you want them to be in his mane. This way I can make sure that his colors are just as you want them to be. Just do this for all colors on his body if you will, please. Also, you say that his mane is a dark rainbow, but what style of mane does he have? Is it flowy like Celestia's? Short and a bit spiky like Rainbow Dash? Is there another pony whose mane is similar? If not, please describe how his mane should appear so that I know how to make it. it would also help if you told me the kind of pose you wanted him to have, as right now I don't have much to go by except 'brooding', which can be depicted in a number of ways. Other things I need to know: What is his eye color? (Add that to the sheet of colors if you make it, please.) Does he have any special markings on his coat? Is the sun on his cutie mark shield the same as Celestia's mark? I know it's important for me to maintain artistic vision in the end for something I work on, but I'd also like to ensure that what you get is something you'll be satisfied with.

    Current Queue As of January 28, 2014 Hello there, everypony! The name's Nico! I used to run a bit of a request thread here a long time ago, back when the forums were pretty new, really. It shut down due to me becoming burnt out on it and just life stress in general, really. However, I've seen a lot of people here still using my signatures that I made for them in the way back when, and it's a bit inspiring that they've stood the test of time, honestly. So, I'm opening up shop again! If you'd like a signature from me, or an avatar even, just drop a request! Finished Requests @Cstriker Past Signature Examples Past Avatar Examples
  10. Kind of wonder if I should take up making signatures and avatars again?

      Well, a long time ago I just did it so much that I lost my drive. But browsing through my old request thread, I see that a lot of people still use the signatures that I made for them 2 years ago, and it's kind of nice. I'm thinking of doing it again.

      I've got less free time to do it these days than ever, but it's not like I don't ever have downtime. It's just kind of easy to get burnt out on them if you do too many, but it's really fun and it's gratifying when people like something you make, too.

  11. I kind of find it hard to believe how much this place has changed since I first joined.

      Apply the same principles to driving. "When somepony is going slow, push them how fast YOU want to go!" Totally legal!

  14. So, how is everypony's day?

      rather nice so far. :)

  15. It's actually possible for Siegmeyer to have a happy ending with his daughter still alive, though it is quite difficult. If you follow his quest and story through to the end and find him in Lost Izalith, follow him down into the pit to battle the 4 tentacle beasts and if he makes it out of there without losing more than what is I believe 20% of his health he and his daughter will both survive in the end. Don't do what I did and accidentally plunge attack him in a misguided attempt to save him. More Dark Souls Moments: As for other games, there is of course the Walking Dead Season 1, though there are several moments I found as sad as, if not sadder than, the ending. I'm sure there are plenty more sad moments, but I'll list them later as I think of them.
  16. Well, I don't have an MP3 player, and I don't actually put music on my devices anymore. I just use Spotify, so I'll just shuffle my primary playlist on it. It's got 209 tracks as of this post, so I think that's sufficient for this. 1.) Cooler than Me - Mike Posner (7/10) 2.) Lights - Ellie Goulding (8/10) 3.) Untouched - Veronicas (7/10) 4.) Pocketful of Sunshine - Natasha Bedingfield (9/10) Yes, I love this song. Deal with it. 5.) Bad Romance - Halestorm [Cover] (7.5/10) Hey, got a good few songs that I thought were pretty good! There are certainly a few songs on this playlist that I find stale at this point.
  17. I don't think anything particular about girl gamers on the whole. However, I do enjoy the fact that my girlfriend plays video games because it opens a new facet of interest for us to share, as well as another activity we can do together. The fact that she's not as good as me doesn't bother me, and I don't attribute that to the fact that she's a girl anyway, but rather that I just play more. Either way, due to the common ground we share since she plays games, I like that she's a 'girl gamer', and nothing is more hilarious than watching her play Zelda: A Link Between Worlds and calling every little thing that hits her a 'little bitch'.
  18. Wow. Almost impossible for people to see status updates with all the members nowadays.

      Oh, wow, hey Doctor. Long time no see, didn't expect someone I knew to reply to this.

  19. Yep. This is definitely some kind of pony forum all right.

  20. What's this? Some kind of pony forum?

      It's strange. It all feels oddly familiar to me...

  21. I wish I didn't feel this way, but I hate my goddamned roommate.

  22. Eventful day. Girlfriend met the parents, found out some more info on her medical situation (though not important info, really), and had a bit of an interesting reading experience just a few moments ago.

  23. Someone anonymously donated $150 to my girlfriend's cause. How very kind. Thank you, anonymous individual. :)

      She's needing surgery for something she has called an Ovarian Cyst to remove it.
