Color Song 65 December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 (edited) Ok so first of all, the mane 6 question was already a bit anxiety-filled, haha. You see, I personally am a blend of both Rarity (being an artist and a bit of a higher-maintenance person with a love of sparkle) but my friends all compare me to Twilight Sparkle. I suppose it is because I am studious, a natural leader, and an extreme bibliophile. I feel strange though, thinking of myself as the main character.Secondly- the reason I'm here. I have recently been diagnosed with a health issue whose treatment plan rather destroyed my immune system. It's temporary, as long as my symptoms improve, but for the present and immediate future, I am house-ridden. I'm an extrovert. I need contact and connection, so I'm seeking a new community to make friends. The basics:I'm a female who identifies as a girl who prefers the pronouns "she, her, hers"I'm older than most people guess and younger than my experience.I'm located in the United States.I'm an artist by passion and trade. Mostly I paint and sculpt, but I flit between many creative realms. Maybe I can share some of my MLP based work here if people want. I'm an animal lover and while I love all animals, cats have a special place in my heart.Anything else you're curious about- just send a note. With warmth and light,~Color Song Edited December 19, 2016 by Color Song 3 Be sure you are the one holding the pen when writing your life's story.

Unumbra 35 December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 (edited) Greetings. Surely you will find whatever you search for within the fandom, either this forum, or amongst other links through Ponyverse. You need not bother with the identity politics here, but it is of course optional. Perhaps being an extrovert, you can use this time to not only get to know the fan-base, but yourself? I digress... Depending on what you are interested in, I would suggest you make an arbitrary dive within the forums. Discuss hopes for the next season, remissness on past seasons, pose and answer questions, debate, listen to music or even get in contact with other members to play games. I am sure you already have an understanding of how forums can be, but nevertheless, they can be jungles. I pray you a pleasant stay and a swift recovery... Or a slow one, depending on whether or not you wish to stick around.

Or a slow one, depending on whether or not you wish to stick around. Thanks Unumbra. This is actually my first forum, but it seems pretty self-explanatory. A jungle, why, yes, yes I would agree with that. Good to know about the identity politics. In grad school they are rather...stringent...about implementing such things so it makes one a bit more cautious outside the bubble of academia. Don't get me wrong, I am an extrovert but I am incredibly self-aware. Some of my friends joke that I'm a masochist (I'm not) because I am extrovert and need to spend time with people to recharge my batteries, but I have introverted tendencies like playing 1-player video games, reading, painting, and essentially holing up away from everyone for days or weeks at a time. One time my friend, Ra, said that getting me to go out is like pulling an alligator's teeth, but that once I am out, I have a blast and get crazy charged, and question aloud why I don't do it more often. Hahahaha. Anyway, yeah. I appreciate the thought though. A quick recovery would be great. I would rather hang around the house because I want to, and feel good doing it, than spend my time dozing off and on and feeling awful, haha. What brought you to this place? Thank you to all for the greetings. 2 Be sure you are the one holding the pen when writing your life's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unumbra 35 December 19, 2016 Share December 19, 2016 What brought you to this place? One day I googled the words "Why does everyone think Braeburn is gay?" and a post on this website was the first result. I had been around the Ponyverse before, but never here within the forums. 2 Luna Nobis Providet ~ Luna Nobis Custodit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I, along with many others, would love to see your work and do hope you consider sharing it. I've been trying to figure out how to send images actually. I don't want to use another site like Imgur, for example. I'd like to find a way to upload directly from my computer's memory instead. Have any tips?

Your options are to continue using what you use now, or try a new site like https://postimage.org/ Which is what I use personally most of the time. If you are uncomfortable with hosting and want to directly upload, raise your member rank. Just post around the forum on topics that interest you and start topics on subjects you are interested in discussing. It is pretty easy to raise it by just surfing around and having a good time. Once your member rank is increased, follow these steps. https://mlpforums.com/topic/70537-pictures-on-topics/ 1 ~No profound statement needed~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what they meant by the post number won't increase. Got it. Thanks for the tip. I have a few thoughts on the show that I bet others have thought of, and if not, I will be happy to start a convo about them. I read that to advertise one's self for commissions and the like you have to get admin permission. Any knowledge on that process as well? Thanks, by the way, for all the help.

Yes, the welcome forum and the gaming forums do not increase your post count. Please do share your thoughts, we are always interested in new outlooks and opinions.

Yes, right here. https://mlpforums.com/topic/116269-welcome-to-commissions-please-read/ Yellow Diamond is the main one you want to speak to if you are interested in getting started in commissions. 1 ~No profound statement needed~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
