    Would you share a less than perfect recording?

    in Vinyl's Creative Resources

    Try it. The briny community especially is known for its kindness and love. I doubt you'll get any hate. Just praise and constructive criticism. I'm sure it'll be great, and in a few years, if you continue, you'll most likely look back on it, see how far you've come, and thank yourself for starting such an amazing journey. Good luck!

     

    Oh, and if you do decide to post it, be sure to give us a link, or just PM it to me if you don't want everyone to here it, I'm sure it'll be great! You can always post an updated version with backing, this can just be the a capella if you want.

    Say I wanted to start a meet-up group...

    in Sugarcube Corner

    The forums is a great place to start. Ask around to find if any other bronies exist in your area, and ask if they're up for a meet up. /mlp/ on both 4chan and Reddit are other great places to 'advertise'. If there's a lot of interest, you may want to assemble a small team of people you can trust to make sure it all runs smoothly.

    Websites are useful. Consider making one, especially if you plan on turning this into an event that runs on a regular basis. Include a Callander of planned events, even allow members to create their own if enough interest is sparked.

    Make the event something people will want to attend, and consider pricing, some people may not have much money to spend. Obviously, you need to set a time and place, making sure that the activities you plan on doing can hold the amount of people that have RSPV'd. Also, it would probably be a good idea to collect contact information, so that you can notify previous attendees about future meet ups.

    Finally, check out some sites and events planned by other meet up groups in different areas, get some inspiration, once you've done it once, it only gets easier.

     

    Good luck!

    LEGO Discussion Thread

    in General Discussion

    Even though I never really owned much legos, I always enjoyed playing with them if I was at a friends house, or during indoor recess.

    Ahhh yes, I remember the rainy days in school, me and my mates were the first to run over to the LEGO and claim it for that break.

    My first wacom tablet drawing

    in Photo Finish's Magics (Visual Art)

    Hello there~

    If you are using mspaint (i assume), it's basically a joke. What I mean is, the program is really bad to draw on.

    I recommend: Paint tool sai, Gimp, or Photoshop.

    Since I can't really critisize on a drawing in mspaint, here are some tips:

    Try to make your own style (don't directly copy the show)

    Make use of shortcuts on the art softwares (reaaally saves time)

    Practice the anatomy of a pony

    Have fun drawing, Frannis!

    Just to extend upon Virus' suggestions...

    Some more great software to draw with could be Photoshop, Illustrator, Sai, Paint.NET, GIMP and MANGA STUDIO. All are available on Windows, the majority on Mac and a couple on Linux. Also, PDN and GIMP are freeware, but there is ways to get the latter for free, but I'm not going into detail.

     

    Have a great time drawing, and be sure to ask if you need any more pointers!

    Don't give up! Learning and mastering new anatomy is hard, but practice makes perfect!

     

    Edit: Changed "some great software" to "some more great software", to work with Virus' previous suggestions, which my eyeballs somehow didn't notice whilst reading through this thread the first time. ._.

    Was Twilight rich?

    in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion

    I don't think Twilight was rich as a student, I believe she was just gifted. Considering Twilight was the "prized pupil" of Celestia, I'm pretty sure it was she who granted Twilight the Observatory. 

     

    Either way, she's probably rich now considering royalty. I'm just surprised her parents haven't moved in with her. Wouldn't that be a funny episode?

     

    Now that this discussion has started, I have to agree with Reality. Although Twilight's parents live in Canterlot, and that's where her and Shining Armour were born, they were prob arable just a middle class sort of family, and any property that older Twilight had was probably granted to her by the Princess.

     

    Although, now she's royalty, she's probably significantly more well off than before.

     

    Oh, and the idea of an episode featuring Twilight's parents moving into the castle with her cracked me up, and also made me realise it would make a really class episode, if executed properly.

    LEGO Discussion Thread

    in General Discussion

    This brings back memories! When I was younger, I had a good 5 year period of loving to play with LEGO. I guess after that it slowly faded away. Me and my brother used to have them out 24/7, making the living room an absolute mess. He was the type who'd grab some random coloured bricks, and whip together some weird contraption as fast as he could with mixed up minifigure parts, so that he could play with them in his imaginary worlds. I was the type who tried (and failed) to build kits as well as I could without the instructions, and then after I'd finished, I'd try to improve the sets myself, or take them apart and challenge myself to build something completely random out of those same parts. Later into this 5 year period, I noticed the 'quality' or Lego sets was starting to fall. (Not the quality of the actual parts themselves, but the quality of the sets as a whole.) They went from complicated kits, to basic, and easy ones, with a bunch of parts exclusive to that kit, which made it 1) easier to build and 2) look more 'realistic'. After I got tired of having too many of these parts, with nothing much to do with them, I started visiting the Lego shop in town (about 30 minutes away on the train), and buying parts from the 'pick and mix' section, over set kits.

     

    This left me with 3 large-ish boxes of Lego for my creativity and imagination to feast on, but as I got older, I started to use them less and less, until they were lucky if they came out once every four months or so. I decided to sell two of the three boxes, keeping the one full of parts that I either thought were useful, nostalgic or really cool. And yeah, that kind of marks the end of a great 5 years of Lego.

     

    Two years later, and I still have that one box under my bed, and it gets used around once a year, although I don't think it's been used at all this year. It's usually brought out around Christmas, as our grandparents buy us (Well, it's really just for my brothers enjoyment now) a Lego advent calendar, and when all the windows have been opened, we usually build some stuff.

     

    Well that was an abrupt end, but I don't have much to say now, so I guess it'll stay that way :3

    Do you keep your hair neat?

    in General Discussion

    If I'm just gonna sit at home all day, then no, if I'm going out or to school then I usually just spend 30 seconds or so putting a little gel in and that's it. If I've got to go to some post event, then I'll get out the brush and spend a little more time, but I don't really care too much.
