Wow, thanks for the advice!

 

I won't use it right now, but I will keep this in handy when I buy my own computer in about a year so thanks!

Ah

 

I would love to do this honestly but my Dad doesn't like. pony content on his computer and since we all share it. It's impossible.

 

Maybe unless there's a ponify your phone.

you can make multiple accounts on your computer and choose your theme. When you log off, the theme would not be shown on your dad's account. But if you log in to your account, the MLP theme would be automatically loaded. But if your father is the computer administrator, sorry.. But you can't do it.

This thread is now under attack by zombie ponies. Graaaah...

 

This is where I got my pony cursors from: https://sites.google.com/site/desertarcanacursors/my-little-pony.

 

But if somepony feels like making a Lyra cursor pack to match those, they would have my undying gratitude.

I don't really ponify my computer so much, I just got a custom start icon  and a Luna wallpaper,

that's about all I have ponified.

[GameytheGeemer 147]

I had done a Luna theme on my laptop. I used all of the stuff that you put on there.

 

Although, I would like to ask about one weird issue that I have with the boot screen.

 

When it would say Resuming Windows, it gives me some Russian text. Do you know any way to fix that.

Ponifying Windows 8 is pretty easy, it works better if you pay for the programs that allow you to change aspects of WIndows 8 as well.

Don't be scared, young CUPKAKES.

 

Rainbow Dash won't be watching you because of cursors...

 

Because she's always watching you.

I can't figure out how to ponify my computer... I have windows 8 and i am very lost on what to do....

[Denim&Venöm 18,095]

: Well I added Desktop Ponies to the OP. I am probably not going to do a Ponfication guide for Windows XP seeing as not many people use it.

Please do one anyways. I have a netbook, a laptop and a "new" computer that all run on XP. Besides, 65% of your poll also want's XP ponification.

I can't download the packs!

Chrome says that it can not find the URL.

 

EDIT: Okay, so I did download the Octavia theme I wanted from elsewhere, but there is still the problem with the Pack Download, just to alert you.

Cool thread! Too bad everyone I know seems to hate ponies. Whatever I'll do what I want.

[Foxx 258]

Awesome! I'm so using this!!

WHAT ABOUT BOOT SCREENS? IM LOOKING FOR PONY BOOT SCREENS! HELP ME OUT BRO!

 

(windows 8.1 OS)

[WunderWaffen_ 165]

Did anyone else get a OpenCandy virus warning upon opening the login screen changer?

 

AVG seemed pretty sure that It was a virus. Damn you AVG!

[otaku4242 183]

only one thing left:

 

I WANT A CUSTOM PONY BOOT SCREEN FOR WINDOWS 8!!!!!!

[Falsey 44]

Nice guide! I already have my computer completely ponified, but this guide will certainly be helpful for many a pony! A suggestion though, maybe you could include a section for replacing system sounds, since that's another easy thing one can do to ponify their computer.

[Dsanders 5,746]

Nice guide!

 

I'm curious as to what I can do if I updated my Windows 8 to 8.1. I've heard that it is similar to Windows 7. I wonder if I could customize it similarly.  

[Lucky Star 972]

some how I went from adding a start menu for my windows 8 to changing the icons xD

 

but every time I convert the image to ico and put it onto the icon, the image becomes extremely low quality.

 

does any one know what I should do? ._.

figured this would be the best place to ask since, ya know.

[10InTheTardis 509]

I have a question about the orb changer. is it possible to use you own picture for that? and if yes, is there certain things an image has to be in order to work?
